Is anyone else experiencing problems with the SVCDS as far as skin hue? My SVCD's are now working great except that the skin color on humans looks a shade or two off. Kind of yellowish. I have seen this with TMGENC when making VCDs but was easy to adjust for with the many settings taht program has. Is there any way to adjust the hue with DVD2SVCD?:confused: :confused:

Do you only get this yellow hue when using tmpgenc or does it happen in CCE too?

And is it apparent on both your computer and your TV?

I've never encountered this skin hue your refering to out of hundreds of dvds ripped with CCE. Even with 5 modes of presets on my wega I don't notice any anomalies.

Happens in CCE too. I have noticed many conversions such as the Buffy and Angel episodes captured from Digital Satellite suffer from the same hue problem when made into vcds using TMGENC, though. Seems to be a byproduct of the conversion process(?). People just don't notice or are not as picky, I guess. But the color correction takes a split second with TMPGENC. However , I really like your software and the overall quality of CCE and would really prefer to stick with it and the CCE combination. By the way, do you take Paypal? Hue issue or not, you deserve some compnesation.

If a simple control for hue could be added to a future release that may be all is needed, But I do not have the expertise to really say more.
