Infoseite // Review Report: Hi-8 tapes to DVD



Frage von glasauge:


I would like to share here synonymous in this forum about my experience of transferring Hi-8 tapes to DVD. This is not a tutorial, but the idea is rather that maybe a few more are in the process, which are helpful for you. For such projects it is indeed synonymous never survive without their own experiments.

Since I did not have a DVD recorder, I have chosen the computer method for dubbing, so a converter with Camera and Firewire card s.Laptop.
As video equipment was available: SonyEV-S9000E Hi8 recorder MVX3i Canon mini-DV Camera and SonyDCR-TR7000E Digital Input-8 camera with video enabled ".

The Hi-8 starting material consisted almost entirely of processed bands, so already 1x for use on Hi-8, and copied to the Hi8 PCM stereo track overdubbed. Many of these videos have been with an old Canon Hi-8 camera created and processed with the old SonyHi8 Recorder EV-S1000E. The great advantage of the Sony recorder 1000E and 9000E was that it was uploading on a special PCM audio track in stereo later as the Music and in fairly good quality.

Now, to dub: It is often said that one should necessarily using Digital-8 cameras instead of the Hi8 recorders, since then the quality would be better. This I can confirm for my DCR-TR7000E not synonymous, and that is probably because I had already edited videos and no more original bands. The Picture was unstable and the overdubbed when playing PCM audio track was not reproduced synonymous. Whether this is better in other (newer) digital-8 cameras go, I can not say unfortunately.

Thus, the SonyHi-8 Recorders 9000E the optimal solution? Unfortunately, not quite. Both the old 1000E, 9000E are dreaded as synonymous to the image because of constant errors (drop outs, etc.) and so many design flaws. This is regardless of the type of tape and there is no help in cleaning synonymous but interestingly seem to be the image errors tagesabhängig (temperature? Humidity?). At 9000E is synonymous nor permanent (whole) adds softly crackling on the audio track.
Of this time, unfortunately, never read one of several in the "Supergut" incompetent reviews from editors and since then I have never purchased such so-called synonymous Test Magazine.

Since it has now, unfortunately not with my digital-8 camera to work properly, could I have no other choice than to choose the lesser evil 9000E recorder to play along to.
When A / D converter has proven to be the Canon MVX3i because the Picture sS-VHS input was better than the TR7000E. The latter was synonymous with vulnerability of computer-generated video cards Titelvorspänne and transitions on Hi-8 tape - as it then was, and Farbflimmern picture noise, which are not occurring in the MVX3i.

On the recorder 9000E I left the default settings for playback, so noise standard "NO STD" and "TB ON". Although the built-in TBC does not work miracles, I recommend you leave them turned on him in spite of security, synonymous when it is supposed metrologically possible Resolutionbegrenzen.
Must dubbing the control panel of the 9000E can be extended, as this otherwise unnecessary additional reheat the videotape of what appears to significantly increase image error when playing! It is recommended that after 90 minutes let the 9000E tape again and start to cool in the meantime, the MPEG conversion.
Unfortunately, I only later noticed that dealt with many of my old tapes, which were still with the old recorder worked 1000E, was transferred to the left of the color signal B / W picture, so the colors were slightly offset. This can be rework with the 9000E, and luckily, I have to set the menu bar "Y / C DELAY entirely on the right maximum level so that the colors were s.der right place in the Picture. If you should have gone earlier with a similar setup as I do, I recommend to control this Überspielorgien too long ago. This is s.Besten with large bright red or blue objects on the videotape.

For capturing, I used the tool "WinDV" and the videos have been prepared with Adobe Premiere 6.5 and the MainConcept MPEG Encoder 1.3 Beta for DVD. I chose the highest bit rate and the quality is satisfactory and they

Hello Roland,

the with the edited tapes is an interesting aspect. Incidentally, I have been synonymous of those who Digital8 camcorder to playback analog Hi8 and Video8-tapes recommend (and even been synonymous only positive experiences - with one TRV310 - I).

In a direct Comparison, I note that drop-outs occur virtually no rushing when playing in a D8-device and the color less.

This color shift is typical of analog video formats and is growing with each copy generation. With a good TB can move relative to the brightness of the color signal horizontally and vertically.

I wish you a good start for 2006!

Hi Mark,

you can play the overdubbed TRV310 synonymous PCM audio track? This is a very important aspect for video amateurs, which was already their Hi-8 have overdubbed and edited pictures.

My sad experience is that, in principle, almost any drive less drop outs and has image problems, than the expensive SonyHi-8 recorder, for instance, the old Canon Hi-8 cameras (), at least for original bands. But even if the Picture of the 1st Copy generation on my digital-8 camera would have been stable, so I would not waive the overdubbed music.

Happy New Year!

Greeting

Hello Roland,

I have not had the opportunity to try out, if my TRV310 is synonymous reflect the PCM track of a Hi8 recording. When I was still a linear cut, I played the 8mm material on SuperVHS.

Since I cut the arts 15 years ago in narrow limits, I found that most of my (Längsspur set to music-needed) SVHS master a highly technical and, above all substantive revision. For the following, digital "Director's Cut" I then went back to Video8 or Hi8 up originals.

Maybe you could be the basic principle of Zweibandvertonung of time to pick up and then digitize your videos: Play the Hi8 tape with one Digital8 camcorder (in order to optimal picture) and then play the same Hi8 tape with one Hi8) recorder (in order to optimal sound. On your computer, you merge Picture and Sound in the timeline again.

I think that audio and video are run synchronously, a sufficiently long time and shorten only few minor corrections (eg views a scene one frame or renew a fade to black, at one frame) are needed.

The EV-S9000E PAL is always the best solution to spend the tapes. My original Sony Camcorders zb brought with all the original tapes have been much worse playback dropouts and a mass of up to denial of playing. EV-S9000E PAL - No problem. Even with tapes from other camcorders
Drop out problems I had as I said no, but a part of the manufacturer-old band had a lot of material fish. What matter, I have carefully edited each frame. What is edit the prospects for a horrible job and can probably think of so many here.
I had my device in the 4 months, but has lasted throughout the ever-waiting to replace the entire drive bay once synonymous because a broken item as the item was no longer available. Even now I had to time to repair, at the drive thorns broke the nylon rings and I invested again 65th - Euro cost of spare parts in the device. Now he's running again ...
I also curse the press, and their tests. The device is synonymous with me constantly made trouble in his life, although it was never hard calls. I could not fix this shit myself, I could have let me gild the box.
Sonyhatte my views s.Anfang voluntarily a rip of the device made. For all the misery it would purely of the technology still be the best of all Hi8 recorder. Only the desired reliability is absolutely to be desired.
It's not a shit, it's a Sony.
My way into the PC. SonyEV-S9000E PAL - AV Master. For now generally Postprocessing Virtualdub, for processing the individual images or edit the fish Mirage1.5

All a happy new year

Gruss - PcSince88

So for me is still synonymous around a EVS9000er. After several years, he has now received a maintenance times - and he usually works well so far. And I just digitize the analog input of my old NV-MX350. No problems with it.

That one, the old, analog equipment must undergo a restoration - nona.
