It looks like Hollywood Restoration II is just a better restoration algorithem.
Probably better color color correction but as its 8mm its probably of dubious
value.
If it were me and I were going to run it through Studio I'd probably want it on
MiniDV tape. That way I'd have a good backup, then I could capture it with my
MiniDV camcorder, Studio makes that part VERY easy.
Otherwise I'd probably go with ProRes but you'd need to download a ProRes
decoder to make it work. Studio will import the ProRes media and turn it into
Studio Native media based on your output format (so if you're working in 1080i
for instance it'll use whatever its native format is for that). Then edit and
output to DVD or Blu-Ray or whatever. I *think* it'll even auto-upload to
youtube for you.

Thanks I will look at the Pinnacle Studio also.
So there would be no advantage to buying the Platinum on that website with
8mm film? What is the Hollywood restoration stuff they have listed there? I
am confused as to what format I should be getting.
Platinum HD Process: 1080 HDV, HD-AVI (MJPG), ProRes 422 or DPX HD Files
Silver & Gold Process: AVI, MiniDV
I think I want something that I can just put in the DVD and watch and also
something that is compatible with video editing software like the Pinnacle
Studio you recommend. Being that the difference between the Gold and
Platinum is 9 cents paying that would actually give me peace of mind that I
got the best that?s available.
Thanks.. Douglas

Sorry for the slow reply as I'm on digest its annoying to reply from my
phone and we were at my parent's house for the holiday.
Anyway with that website I wouldn't got less than silver, notice that bronze
is not full frame. I don't think I'd bother with platinum, we're talking 8mm
right? The quality of 8mm is limited anyway, if it were 16mm I'd consider
it.
For editing since you're on a PC I'll recommend Pinnacle Studio, buy
whichever level you think you need, more money = more tools as with most
anything. I'm not just saying that because I work for the company which in
the spirit of full disclosure I do. Actually I work for the parent company
in the professional video division but whatever. Cyberlink has been around
for years and I've played with it and HATED it. Studio gets really high
rankings because its a real professional video editor with a consumer
product front end made by the consumer video arm of a professional video
company (Avid).
