Title
-
Fix camera faults in analogue video
-
Goal
-
Correct for poor convergence or camera microphony in video captured from an analogue source
-
Description
- I work on the ld-decode FOSS project, which produces high-quality digital captures of analogue video sources (such as LaserDisc or videotape).
It's fairly common to find examples of video where faults in the original source are visible - for example, the red/green/blue sensors in the camera are misaligned, or the image is disturbed by loud noises near the camera (microphony), or the original video was played back on a misaligned video recorder so lines are offset. These show up in commercially-released video as well. Given an understanding of the structure of the video signal, it should be possible to correct for these kinds of faults in software to substantially improve picture quality.
