VHS Commercial - Touchstone Home Video

*Technical note:* Viewer/access encode (640×480, 4:3 square pixel, progressive) from analog VHS. SD Rec.601 color, H.264/AAC, edited in Kdenlive and encoded with FFmpeg on Linux. Captured from VHS using a Sony SLV-N500 VCR and a MacroSilicon MS210x USB capture device. Most tapes are captured via direct composite; unstable tapes are passed through a Toshiba DVD recorder for line stabilization. Edited in Kdenlive and encoded with FFmpeg on Linux. --- *VHS Digitization – Direct Hardware Capture and Preservation-Focused Encoding* This video is sourced directly from an original VHS tape using a dedicated analog playback and capture chain. The signal is captured in real time and processed using a custom FFmpeg-based workflow designed to preserve synchronization, signal structure, and the native characteristics of the VHS format. --- *Capture & Encoding Information* • *Source format:* Analog VHS (NTSC) • *Capture resolution:* 640×480, 4:3 (square pixel, SAR 1:1) • *Scan:* Progressive (deinterlaced for viewer access) • *Color:* SD Rec.601 / SMPTE 170M (TV range) • *Video encoding:* H.264 (libx264) • *Audio encoding:* AAC-LC, stereo, 48 kHz • *Editing:* Cuts and assembly only in Kdenlive • *Final encoding:* FFmpeg on Linux --- *Playback and Capture Hardware* • *VCR:* Sony SLV-N500 • *USB capture device:* MacroSilicon MS210x (EasyCAP-class USB video grabber) --- *Signal Path* *Primary ingest path* Direct composite video from the VCR to the USB capture device. This is the default path for this generation of captures and is used whenever the tape plays stably without timing errors. *Conditional stabilization path (when required)* For tapes exhibiting timing instability or frame-sync issues, playback is routed through a Toshiba DVD recorder acting as a line-stabilizing passthrough. The recorder outputs either S-Video or composite to the capture device, selected based on luma stability and overall signal behavior. No recording is performed on the DVD recorder; it is used solely for signal conditioning. --- *Ingest, Editing, and Processing* • Real-time capture on Linux using FFmpeg • Uncompressed UVC video capture (720×480 NTSC, interlaced) • 48 kHz 16-bit PCM stereo audio captured alongside video • Editorial work limited to cuts and assembly performed in Kdenlive • Final encoding performed via FFmpeg --- *Encoding Philosophy* This workflow is intentionally conservative. Artifacts intrinsic to VHS—head-switching noise, line instability, chroma bleed, dropouts, and analog softness—are preserved where possible rather than aggressively corrected. The goal is faithful documentation of the source medium, not cosmetic restoration or reinterpretation. This upload represents a *viewer/access copy* derived from a higher-quality master retained offline. Any limitations in resolution, color fidelity, or stability reflect the characteristics of the original tape and playback hardware.
