Hey Now...
Just wondering if anyone could give me the quick-quick or some kind of rundown on what the preferred method is for filtering avi captures before MPEG-2 encoding.
I have a pile of VHS that I am "capturing" via firewire and a camcorder that has analog to digital conversion built in. The normal process of doing this and then encoding the DV (avi file) to MPEG-2 for DVD authoring is a snap but, for some of my tapes, I'd really like to be able to clean up some of the color/noise/etc. with options similar to those available in good old V-dub. Since vdub does not do MPEG-2 encoding (to my knowledge), looks to me like my options are either to encode twice (avi filtering in V-Dub followed by MPEG-2 encoding later on) or to come up with some kind of MPEG-2 encoder that'll do both at the same time. I'm loathe to encode twice because of the obvious time constraints and then there's also the quality issue, so I'm just wondering if anyone could clue me in as to how I might handle this best. Should I encode twice anyway, or are there filters available in TMPGEnc (and the like) that I am missing?
Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thanks...

just frame serve from v-dub to your encoder
