It was kind of hard to get a decent set of pictures that showed it, eventually I had to capture with huffy uv and convert it into an image sequence. I won't circle anything in this image but i backed the contrast down so you could see the individual lines. Top and bottom are taken from a "paused" frame on the laser disc... (That is I paused it and then captured the video feed and then extracted the frames)...

The only thing I can say about it is the bands you can see in the two pictures. It was hard to find pictures that looked at all different. If they look the same to you, then I don't know what to say. I realize I probably can't do anything about it, but I decided to post it anyways.

I've also decided to do a straight capture to mpeg 2 for direct copy to dvd, just for watching, and then i'll segment out the movie with some new captures using huffyuv. I don't actually have enough disk space to hold all 3 movies with huffyuv. with the huffyuv segments i'll see if I can store them on some dvd -/+ r's. I'm also considering making them into image sequences, so I can mess with them even if I don't have a codec. (If I do the later, i guess i want to inverse telecine and probably deinterlace and such... I don't really know alot about that though)...

Any help is greatly appreciated thanks!
