I have just captured a 1:30 hr B&W movie using the picvideo mjpeg codec (compression @ 19, 720x576 pal).
When I play the movie back in media player classic or in WMP, as well as the expected interlacing, there is a lot of ghosting as actors move across the screen. I haven't seen this on previous captures.
After processing to Xvid in VirtualDub I have noticed that the ghosting remains. De-interlacing or resizing to 352x288 makes no difference. Neither does bitrate.
I tested a segment through NeroVision Express, as I hope to make a DVD as well as a compressed avi. Processing to DVD removes the ghosting effect though produces a lower visual quality (max 6920 kbps for 1 x 4.9g DVD)
Does anyone have an explanation of what's going on and can suggest how I can remove the ghosting when I rip this capture to Xvid. I'd like a nice sharp avi to keep and playback on my computer as well as an inevitably lower quality DVD version for TV playback.
