![]() ![]() I totally agree that everything should be backed up properly. Can you name specific programs I can purchase for this project? I heard that H.264 is better than MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 and that H.265 is even better cause it is newer.Īs for the software you are talking about. So Handbrake is a good software to use but only for certain applications in this matter I guess. ![]() If these tapes are as important as you say they are, it will be worth purchasing the storage (and backup!) for them. If you want to share videos by file instead of disc, then you can make lossy AVC/h.264 (MP4) files with a tool such as Handbrake and get them down to a size which is easier to transmit by internet or sneakernet.īeware: losslessly compressed video files are huge. When it comes time to make a DVD, your authoring application (or some adjunct tool) will convert your lossless files into the lossy MPEG2 codec which is required for DVD-Video. ![]() This way you are preserving exactly what comes out of your digital converter. I also recorded my screen and went over the different settings and I can share the video if necessary.Ĭapture your videos with a lossless codec such as HuffYUV, Lagarith, or UT Video. ![]() Which settings are the ideal settings for VHS to the best quality digital conversion format which will also fit on a DVD? So far everything I found made me ask more questions. So I literally need a step by step guide. I also often see that the FPS is set to 29.97 by default and wanted to ask if I should set it to 30 or higher. I need help with every option on here, the more you write, the better. Keep in mind I don't know much about this stuff. I tried to convert the same file 6 times to see what would be the best setting but they all look the same. I keep researching and the more I learn the more questions I have. There is another field asking if I want to convert to an MKV or MP4. There are a bunch of other options like Codec types such as H.264 and H.265 as well as MPEG-4 and so on. For example, I don't think it is necessary or smart to choose the Fast 1080P 30FPS preset because the VHS resolution is 720x576. Over there there are SO many settings and given I am not converting a High Definition video, I am aware some of those options are Not Applicable to me. Once I finished using Movavi Video Editor (recommend a better capture software if you know of one please) I see a huge file (50-70GB in size) then I learned I need to compress the output file with Handbrake. I am currently converting VHS tapes in the format of PAL/SECAM (to the best of my knowledge) from 12 to over 20 years ago. I still have some questions because no situation was like mine in the posts I read. First of hello everyone, I wanna say thanks in advance and let you know that I did my research prior to writing this post. ![]()
