Re: [Mjpeg-users] Reasonable targets for Video8 sources...
I purchased a D8 camera to do the capturing. It is able to read video 8 tapes and send it via firewire. I've been archiving the tapes on disk as DV files. I'll edit the files together one day and burn them onto DVD.

Re: [Mjpeg-users] Reasonable targets for Video8 sources...
Hi, Ok, so here is what I would do: 1. capture at 720x576 (or if NTSC 720x480), interlaced. 1a. (optional) denoise if needed... 2. scale to 352x576 (or if NTSC 352x480), interlaced. 3. encode to DVD at highest possible bitrate. cu Stefan - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

If it is any help to you I will send you a copy of an OpenOffice presentation I did for my local LUG, in which I detail the steps to turn the input into DVDs. I chose DVDs because VCDs are not always supported by stand-alone players, and with disks now cheap the wasted space didn't seem relevant. As for the man pages - I found that it was essential to have all of them printed out. There are so many possible parameters, and they don't always have the same/expected result in different tools.

[Mjpeg-users] Reasonable targets for Video8 sources...
Hi, I hope this is not a trivial question, but since I have a lot of Video8 tapes to save before they cannot be played anymore, I would like to save them digitally the best way. I made some experiments with VCD and XviD, using a DC30+ card, but there are so many parameters to tune, so I would like to have at least a rough idea of what output format to choose (or even to avoid). I just guess that DVD is to avoid, since there is nothing to gain. Also, I guess VCD should not be bad at all, and it fits well with my tapes (all are one hour long). Finally, I would avoid XviD because some people that asked me for a copy of a tape don't have a DivX player (nor Video8 camcorder). Any hint will be very appreciated. Best regards. PS Yes, I have read several time the MJPEG-HOWTO and the man pages. - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
