Round 2 is moving along (and after thinking about it, was totally necessary because I locked the settings so they wouldn't float around).  I am pleased with the results overall, but I am thinking that I might want to apply a small amount of sharpening.  Some slight softness is in the print (still not sure if it is because the objects are in motion), but sharpening seems to help.  Here is a new capture without and with some sharpening (this is just a proof of concept):

Edit: I tried downsampling the original to 1920 (HDTV resolution) and it seemed to make the difference with no sharpening.  Probably the 1920x1080p version will look fine (included in the attachment above).

bkev - Which tapes?  VHS 1997 SE's?  It seems strange they would show that logo since it is not part of the movie, unless you mean on the cover art.
