I'm editing all the footage I have from our wedding for our 2 year aniv, and the VHS stuff is .... total **** quality. So I ran it through a bunch of filters, and it looked great. Then I sped up whenever anybody is walking anywhere, and man. It's looks awesome. The compression got rid of the scratches and blips of crap, but oh well.

Nice job, thank you for sharing. I'm sure that your wife is pleased.

Thanks! I'm doing it on a beastie dual G4 powermac. I'm hosting it on said powermac, because I don't know anyplace that hosts video files free. Thanks. I used the aged film, then convert to black and white, then up the contrast and increase the brightness just a tiny little bit. Also, adding the aged film over the title helps a lot, it looks stupid when the film looks old but the titles are crystal clear and not jittery.

Putfile hosts videos for free, but there's a 10MB limit.

http://www.ourmedia.org/ I won't promise it's faster than a dedicated server, but it'll be faster than hosting it yourself.

Nice work on the video.

Is there a field mouse inside your computer or something?
