I've got an old video tape shot on a B&W security type camera many years ago that I want to put on dvd.
I played the tape in a vcr and used my XM2 as a A/D converter.
The picture on the XM2 screen was filled with colour noise (played ok on tv). I can only explain it as a darting herringbone pattern with colour noise. Nevertheless, I captured it into vegas - thinking I could use the B&W filter in vegas to remove it.
On using the filter, the colour noise was removed, but the herringbone patern remained.
I played the clip in windows media player and when I reduced the colour control to B&W all was ok - colour gone together with patterning.
The main problem, I think, was the initial conversion through the XM2. I have to use composite rather than S video due to vcr limitations.
Anyone any ideas?
