Need help with stabilizing bad VHS tape

[Notelu]

what would be the best way to stabilize this capture? (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1r3DMQd74Vvhv6ltkO1uaMWiYUg-3TN1U) I don't have access to the original tape. I've already put a few filters on it.

Shouldn't ask for "best" per forum rules.

What do you mean by "stabilize" in this context?

Ah sorry, I'm new so I apologize. By stabilize I mean eliminate the shakiness and drop out that happens occasionally in the picture. Like what can be seen at 0:07 and 0:17.

If you plan on doing serious cleanup work on tape as crappy as your sample, why are you capturing to lossy media?. You can do much better than that, even if you're new to this. I'd suggest that you start over and learn to work with lossless codecs or you're shooting yourself in both feet from the start.

Like I said, I don't have access to the original tape. The best I have is a mpeg2 DVD and this is a bootleg from about 2003, and I haven't been able to contact the original owner. I compressed the sample I sent just so it would be easier to send.

this is a bootleg from about 2003 You can't discuss that stuff here, per forum rule 6. Try here:

I don't know what you call "bootleg". It's just a really bad typical DVD recording of damaged tape off a cheap VCR by someone who didn't know what the hell they were doing. We must have thousands of such examples in this and other forums, and no one has hollered bootleg yet. Meanwhile there are multiple layers of compression artifacts: the original MPEG2 and the added layer of gunk from reencoding with a stingy bitrate. No one's going to work with recompressed material like that sample, it's a waste of effort. Your only choice is working with the original, lossy DVD -- but frankly that looks like low-bitrate garbage as well. All one can say is, you have your work cut out for you. With a little experience you'll be able to temper your expectations about material like this, which has been through several stages of destruction and data loss. One of the first things you learn is that once data is lost through compression and poor playback, there's no way to recover it. And you can throw sharpeners at the video all day long 24/7/365, but you can't create detail from nothing.

A piece of the original DVD would more likely be something to work with. Extracting the source with DGIndex to get an m2v to make short samples with,and decoding that into into lossless AVI using Lagarith or UT Codec is the only way to go, if you're going to try it at all. But if you stick with lossy intermediate workfiles, you'll be seriously disappointed when you find out how godawful that kind of processing looks.

It's called a bootleg because it's of a Pink Floyd concert, and this dvd is often sold without the original creators consent, so thus it is a bootleg.

I am using a piece of the original DVD, Like I have stated earlier in this thread I just compressed a clip of it so it would be easier to send, because I have crap upload speed, and I do not want to spend an hour uploading a 1gb vob file, when I can just spend a minute uploading a 11mb 30 second clip which shows the same issue.

Now if someone can actually answer the question that I asked instead of complaining about the compression (Which I have already explained twice now) That would be great.

...and I do not want to spend an hour uploading a 1gb vob file...
And no one wants a 1GB file. You cut out a 10 second piece for upload. That's for future reference.

As mentioned earlier, this violates the forum rules, even more so now that you've admitted it to be copyrighted. Thread closed.
