You rang? ;) 14000 frames (~8 minutes) of data captured (by another Canopus convert) from a VHS tape and on its way to SVCD. 1) smil2yuv -a $N.wav $N.smil | \ y4mshift -n -6 | \ yuvdenoise -S 0 -r 16 -t 5 -l 3 -b 20,56,680,376 | \ yuvscaler -M BICUBIC -O SVCD | \ mpeg2enc -M 2 -f 4 -q 8 -4 2 -2 1 -N -o $N.m2v and 2) smil2yuv -a $N.wav $N.smil | \ y4mshift -n -6 | \ yuvdenoise -S 0 -r 16 -t 5 -l 3 -b 20,56,680,376 | \ y4mscaler -S option=cubic -O preset=svcd | \ mpeg2enc -M 2 -f 4 -q 8 -4 2 -2 1 -N -o $N.m2v were the two commands run.
