Hi all It is more a general matter than specific to cinelerra. But if someone has the same situation it may be useful. Here I am transferring Super8 movies using a 422 8 bit camera, I end up with raw files with no gamma correction. Sometimes movies are turning dark with age (chemical instability or just plain underexposure). Now my question would be :
In order to bright the frames up, I use the following plugins in this order : gamma, Hue, color, bright / contrast, eventually videoscope to control. I sometimes use the histogram but it tends to flatten out some colours... I need to learn more about this one Is there any suggestion as per the order of the plugins I am using (e.g. would it be better to do the gamma at then end rather than the beginning etc ....) Thanks a lot Edouard
