Is there a process, plugin or program that would, in essence, do for video what "Auto Levels" does for stills in Photoshop. I know that Vegas has an abundance of adjustments, from brightness to color curves. What I am looking for is a simple process that could be applied to bad video, such as 8mm transfer, on a frame by frame basis. Amatuer film seems to vary so much from scene to scene that it's often too time consuming to make manual adjustments. A general "Auto Level" type of program could be run on an .avi where it examines and adjusts luminance, color, etc. to a preset standard.

I'm sure something of this nature either exists or is possible. I've just never had the need before. Can anyone offer some guidance.

Thanks!
