I am converting some old VHS video tapes to DVD using my new Canopus ADVC-100 with VV4 and am confused about a couple of things.
I start a new project with the DVD NTSC template and capture my video. My first point of confusion is that the capture resolution 720x480 is not 4:3 aspect ration yet it looks fine on the computer screen. Then I use “Print to Tape” to send it back to the TV to see how it looks. I am comparing the same frame with text from both the original VHS tape and the one coming from the computer. The text is in the same place horizontally but vertically, the text from the computer frame is a little above the text in the VHS frame. I can’t figure out why. Ideally I want the computer’s frames to look identical to the original frames from the VHS tape.
Would someone please help me. Thanks…
