Red face home movies
Hiya,

I have some old home movies which were copied from film onto VHS cassettes and then onto CDs which I can view on my iMac.....or TV....but the problem is that they are kinda dark in spots.

I wonder if there is somekind of software hidden in my Power Mac which would allow me to "play" or enhance these movies or if anyone knows of some kind of sitable software which would do that.

Hate to lose those movies as the kids have grown and moved away and the grandkids really enjoy viewing their parents as they were years ago....

Thanks.

Can you import those movies into iMovie, by chance?

Peace...

You can do very little to improve footage that has been compressed and recompressed----
