Thanks. Ive had a look at it and Im going to DL the demo and give it a try, see if it does the job.

Has anyone tried to clean up video?

I have some Super 8 Cine footage from the mid 70's. Its been transferred to VHS. The original Cine footage was rather scratched, and hence the transfer is scratched aswell.

I have now copied from the VHS to .avi files ready for editing, trimming and creating a dvd from, but Im wondering if there is any way to clean up the footage before hand? I had considered trying to clean each frame in photo editing, but with the length of the footage it would take a couple of years.

Has anyone tried anything like this before? Is there any software that can be suggested for a task like this?

Cheers in advance.

hello, can i ask what your fathers name was.

i am looking up my family tree.

so far i have Macdonald Married Grinyer, they had 4 children, one was called Andrew Macdonald born 1920 he married a woman called Mary Winifred Cecile Macdonald formerly Gagnon. they second is Grace E. Macdonald born 1921, the third is John Macdonald born 1922 and the forth is Horace J. Macdonald born 1929. Andrew Macdonald and Mary went on to have 3 children first Andrew Macdonald born 1944, second Ian Macdonald born 1950 died 1985, Ian is my father. and the third child Is Robin Macdonald born 1953.

Hi Lloyd1985
My father was Robin Macdonald. He passed away in 1988. This family connection makes us cousins. In total Mary (who goes by the name Cecile) and Andrew had 8 children, 4 of whom I believe are still alive. I have so much information that I can forward to you regarding the Gagnon line, as its been traced back to 16th (I think) Century France. We are actually related to Celine Dion, Madonna and Hilary Clinton, something like 10th cousins.

The Macdonald family is now spread across the world with members living in Australia and Mid-West and West Coast USA.

Im sending you my personal email address by private message so that we can transfer more information etc.

By the way my name is Paul.

So glad that you joined Rootschat and got in touch. Hope to hear from you soon.
