I am working on video that was converted from 16mm (1950's - 60's) to VHS and (by me) to computer files. I have tried cleaning them up using the tools menu, but the end results, while still better than the original, are still annoyingly grainy. It would be nice to 'heal' the video and get better quality. I am an amature user, so any help, suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
16 mm is a small image to start with, It was then captured as 720x480 (VHS format). VHS tape only has a resolution of about 400 lines at maximum.
I would expect the video to be grainy. If the 16 mm film was captured in high resolution format, you would not have grain. There are capture devices that can capture 16 mm film one HD frame at a time. (Those devices are not cheap, they cost thousands of dollars).
