katmack7 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 I have seven video files in VOB file format. These were digitized from an old VHS camcorder in the early 1990s. The video has black bars on either side - since it's not wide screen. I've put them all in order in VIdeoPad and want to save as MP4 but am uncertain what settings to use - preset, resolution, widescreen format choice, frame rate, etc. Obviously the quality of this old video isn't the best - but I'd like to be able to save it as one mp4 looking as good as I can make it. Thanks for any assistance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 At export, the auto-selected frame rate, default quality and resolution are likely okay as is. 4:3 is no doubt the source aspect ratio. To fill the frame, try Crop and Zoom. Experiment to see what looks best. If you take a minute to share a few of these pics, someone here may be able to offer more specific suggestions... Upload the file/s to a free server, such as Google Drive or MS OneDrive, get a shared (public) link, copy the link and paste it here or to me in a Private Message via the mail envelope in the top-right corner of this forum. When using Google Drive, if necessary change "restricted" to "anyone with link can view." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
