Zoom in and see if you can resolve details in one that you cannot resolve in the other. Remember, you are trying to resolve details and therefore should ignore the additional pixelization you will get at a lower resolution.

Fred has posted about this as well, and his recommendation has always been the same: you don't need HD resolutions when scanning 8mm or Super 8.

The lower resolutions will result in 4-10 times faster performance with these scripts. I generally get about 8-14 fps (depending on options enabled) on my 13-year-old Intel i7 computer running Windows XP.
Many thanks John now is perfect!

How can I insert this function of Fred's script into yours?

Code:
final_framerate = 25  # final frame rate
