Railfan Technology > video editing question

I enjoy the comments on this forum so now I have a question.

I have 8mm and super 8 movies from the 60's, 70's and early 80's that I have had converted to video.  Some are faded and off color.

I have software to convert VOB files to avi, but I need suggestions for editing software that can help restore colors.​​

Stan,

What computer platform are you using?

J.

64 bit HP Envy, 8 Gb Ram, 750 Gb drive, Windows 10

Photoshop elements, has an edit function that allows color adjustments, even some recovery, but probably more sophisticated programs out there, although this is not a very lucrative market...For PsE use the newer versions, the codec in older version is unsatisfactory. I have been using PsE 12 successfully, Even I haven using in in the past an older version of the full PS version. Does fine for RR movies.

Thanks for posting your URL to your layout.   It is fantastic!  Looks like it's prototypically operated also.

Thanks, it was operated prototypically, and I have used the past because I moved, so its all memory now!

I have downloaded a trial version of Premier Elements.

Thanks for the suggestion.

This was a super8 movie high resolution transferred and processed with PS, posted a while ago
