Your English is understandable. You seem to know more about English than many English speakers know about your own language. I know of three European members here who process their remarks through Google Translate before posting. Google Translate is not perfect, but it seems to help those members. This is merely a suggestion. I would hate to see how my own posts would appear if I tried to write in another language.

It is usually difficult to analyze video problems using still images. So this reply will be somewhat incomplete. It would be useful to include more information about the video from which the image was made. Is the video in a compressed AVI format, a lossless AVI format, an MPEG? I assume from your post that you captured using MMC, but I don't know what recording format was used.

The image looks like an overexposed photograph; some of the colors are over saturated, but some look under-saturated. Many of the brightest highlights are too bright and appear to be burned away, while the darker areas look grayed and thin. Did you set any MMC filters during the capture? The MMC utility was a good convenience in its day, but it would be better to capture VHS to AVI with a lossless compressor (such as huffyuv) using VirtualDub. I own a 7500 AIW and I still use it that way for VHS capture, especially for old tapes that will need some repair. I was never completely satisfied with MMC capture, so I haven't installed MMC for several years.

I would also ask what settings you used in your JVC player. For VHS capture your JVC should be in "EDIT" mode.

I'm not familiar with the 6900u. The 9xxx series have playback mode settings in their internal menu (you need the remote control to set it).

I would not suggest EDIT mode on the VCR. That turns off all of the non-TBC/DNR video filters -- which is the main reason you want the unit. So that's no good. EDIT is rarely best.

I'm curious why the sample screenshot is so large -- larger than 720x480 resolution.

And your English is decent enough to communicate. So no issues there. My fluency in other languages is probably the same as (or worse than) your English. So bravo.

I'm going my former JVC's as far as EDIT goes. The 9111u might be different. I had the 7600 and the 9911 USA editions. Might be some difference there. But on EDIT I had had no problem turning TBC on/off, and could definitely tell if TBC/DNR was on. Other modes gave a soft image.

In any case, I couldn't say any more. Don't know enough about the video that the image came from. And the image size doesn't make sense.

here some information

[sanlyn]

The info is helpful, although a short sample piece of actual video would tell us even more.

The 704x240 frame size is not DVD compliant for MPEG2 video, nor is the 44K audio audio sampling rate (it should be 48K). The output from your VCR would be a display frame of 640x480 interlaced. Many would capture such VHS at 704x480 or 720x480, while some would capture at the display size of 640x480.
