I'm running an AVI (DV) throught CCE 2.5 with this script.

#The file to load
AviSource("C:\ANH.avi")

#Not sure what this is or if I need it?
SeparateFields()

#The aspect ratio?
BicubicResize(720,240,0,0.6,0,0,720,240).Weave()

#The cap is in Letterbox & this cuts off the black bars.
Letterbox(100,100)

#Blur at max setting, I guess that's good.
Blur(1.58 )

#Sharpen at max setting, I guess that's good.
Sharpen(1)

#This will fix the "washed out" effect... not sure about a good setting.
Levels (0,1,255,0,255)

The letterbox works great. The Blur & Sharpen... some input on this would be good.

Also "levels" numbers to fix the washed out look of the captured AVI.
