Restore old Footage help?
[Post New]
Hello,

I have video from 1989 taken in a basement using an old Pansonic VHS camera.

My friend convered it to .mp4 with some software...not sure what.

Bitrate 583.0 kbs
Res 640x480
H.264 AVC
Frame Rate 30
Progressive frame type

It is dark, and the resolution in 2021 is terrible. Sound is not bad.

Any suggestions on cleaning it up in 2021 with PD365

I looked at the Fix and Enhance...and there is the contrast, and brightness. It is a start, but I have a hard time telling if it is much better. Would LUTS work.

I have a snap of the video. Wondering if this kind of image can be cleaned up?

FYI - I just play around with PD. I am no where near professional. At all.

Anything else that would help?

Thoughts?

Thanks,

V

The best upscaler for the vhs video is probably the Topaz Video Enhance AI discussed in this thread: https://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/84306.page#348552 .

Here is your snapshot upscaled to 4K using AI and color enhanced with an image program.
