Top of video looks shaky..

[buzzrock]

Please let me know if this post is "not proper".

I just finished downloading Goldmember Disc one (dvdrip to SVCD-from Eznews)..

The top of the video is shaky, much more visible when the light colors are displayed..

Did anyone else download this and experience this effect, wonder if it was my burn or not..

I know alot of us members download movies from the net, just didn't know if its good etiquitte(sp*) to discuss in this forum..

Thanks

yah bud i downloaded movies lile Goldeneye,austin powers 3 and the top of the video is shaky i used tmpenc to encode it and nero to burn it.

where did u download goldmember from and is it good quality???

oh yah and i have a LG burner 2

Well if you downloaded Austin Powers 3 this is the same movie (Austin Powers in Goldmember).

This isnt a divx download its already been encoded into MPEG2, ready to burn.

I did download the divx screener bout 5 months ago when movie was released, this appears to be a dvd rip, excellent quality.. The old divx was poor.

The movies that were "Shaky" for you that you mentioned, were the shaky in Divx when you played them on your computer, or just shaky after you encoded em..

See if this virtualdub or Premiere plugin helps

DiGiStudio digital video stabilizer

Unfortunately it will require conversion to test it.

PS:

Its not free but there are demos and may watermark in the demo. I did not test them.

Its meant for shaky captures from hand held cameras.

The symptoms you describe seem more like horizontal synch issues similar to caps made from poorly synched cable descramblers.

Gl99, I visited the link you provided, and downloaded the sample videos.

This shaky is not whole picture, in fact if I get real close to tv, it looks look about the maybe 4 rows of pixels on top that are shaky..

I think this plugin would still help?

And not to open a huge bag of worms, but I would need to de-encode the video first right, because in past I havent been able to open MPEG2 files in vdub or TEMPenc

[gll99]

If its only a few lines at the top and not a bend then its probably overscan caused by the capture and not horz synch like I thought.

It is possible to do some cutting and/or masking of those lines in vdub and tmpgenc but I'm afraid you have to reprocess.

The program I suggested is only one of many such demos available to correct jitter but I don't think it will help with that.

[gll99]

Sorry I have a registered version of tmpgenc plus and forgot that many people do not so mpeg2 processing may not be possible with that tool.

There is a plugin available so that virtualdub can read mpeg2.

I don't know if the codec at the left under other...tools...codec...mpeg2 will allow you to read mpeg2 files in tmpgenc and virtualdub.

It points to this site:
