Hello, I'm using a PVR-350 card on linux in order to transfer movies from VHS videotapes to MPEG files. At the moment I use "cat /dev/video0 > foo.mpg" (I haven't figured out yet how to record in mythtv without having any tv channels defined).
It seems to be working great with most movies, but a few cartoons appear to be very fuzzy: any time a character moves, he's in two places at once, as shown in this screenshot: http://web.davidfaure.fr/tmp/shot0001.png [1.3 MB] Pausing on the VCR doesn't show this artefact, only pausing during playing (with mplayer, or after transferring the MPEG to an actual DVD and watching it on a real TV). Is this what is called "motion blur"? I have tried setting dnr_mode to 0 and to 3, I have tried setting dnr_temporal to 0 and 16, dnr_spatial to 0 and 16, all this seems to have no effect. From what I understand, motion blur is about slight fuzziness (and optimizing the MPEG compression), whereas my problem is about two distinct images on top of each other... right? Any ideas? === * My ivtv settings: ivtvctl --set-input=5 ivtvctl -f width=720,height=576 ivtvctl -c bitrate=4500000,bitrate_peak=6000000 # For some reason ivtv or the pvr gets initialized with hue not 0 !? Everything looked blueish... ivtvctl --set-ctrl=hue=0 # Motion blur fix - got it from some wiki page, but no idea if it's good or bad ivtvctl -c dnr_temporal=0 # Output in mode DVD ivtvctl -c stream_type=14 * ivtv init kernel messages: attached. PS: I saw in the archives a mail from Thibautc Colar which includes a color shift problem, I suggest: ivtvctl --set-ctrl=hue=0 -- David Faure, [EMAIL PROTECTED], sponsored by Trolltech to work on KDE, Konqueror (http://www.konqueror.org), and KOffice (http://www.koffice.org).
