    I have a video, which is on a DVD in VOB format, it is not compressed.. it is the ORIGINAL copy. The problem I am having is that, when I play the video on my computer.. the edge has a "green area" to it, but when I play it on the TV for example.. I cannot see the "green area" .. can someone recommend a way to restore the video, and possibly remove the "green area"?

    As you can see.. the "green area" on the very right of the screen..[/img]

    It would be easy enough. Convert VOB to MPEG -- lossless. Then Use VDUBMPEG and crop, then stretch back, but this second transformation would would lose some quality.

    Hardly worth it since it's not visible on TV screen anyway.

    -- And VOBs are compressed, just not as much as the average AVI you find online.

    Hmm.. problem is.. I was hoping to have the video so that it was viewable on the computer without the "green area".. as I rarely use the TV..

    Thanks for your help..

    In that case, convert it to AVI, it's one conversion, not two, and you don't have to worry about getting it to a fixed frame size so you can just crop it in the process.

    Someone mentioned using FFt3Dfilter to remove green-wash effect
    from VHS-transfer.
    You;d have to search this very forum for it, cuz I seen it somewhere..
    Looked very useful.

    I use Sony Vegas to remove the green lines. Well actually I just zoom in enough to past them and create a preset. Of course I could do something more complicated like combining chroma keying and convolution matricies, or writing scripts, but I find that just zooming in a bit fixes the problem.
    Programs I Frequently Use:
    Sony Vegas 7
    Autodesk 3ds Max 9
    Camtasia Studio 4
