Hi Team

This movie was cherished as a child when my father brought it home one day when I was home sick.  The VHS must have been watched 50 times!

The DVD release is NTSC with a seriously variable film cadence.  What needs to be restored with software (in addition to a clean 24p pulldown) is film jitter.  Disney seemed to have set up a 16mm camera and filmed it handheld then said yep that makes $$$ done.

What modern techniques are available to stabilise frames of animation from budget film sources?  The DVD is in storage and that last time I was obsessed with video encoding was when Tsunamic MPEG encoder was all the range and we all had to use Avisynth with hours dedicated to the perfect script.

How can I upload samples to get advice?
