I have an anaglyph video on my PC but want to put it onto DVD and watch it on standard NTSC television. I encoded the avi and compressed the file to fit onto DVD but I get severe ghosting on TV that I didn't get on my PC? Any advise on the proper way to compress an avi file to DVD without acquiring the unacceptable ghosting? PK I think this might be your expertise. I apologize if this topic has been brought up in the past but for a newbie, I'm still picking up on all the tech language. Thanks. | ||

Eesh. You're opening a can of worms ;-) The _only_ way I can watch a great anaglyph on my interlaced NTSC TV is by converting it to field sequential anaglyph format, but although the 3D integrity is *perfect* this way, you get the same exact flicker as you get with standard field sequential 3D. So... you would need to double the scan rate, somehow, to get rid of the flicker. Second problem... is your anaglyph an MPEG (VCD, DVD, etc) or something other than a lossless (or uncompressed) movie? If so, it will probably have some ghosting due to lossy compression that cannot be removed! You might want to just consider watching the existing anaglyph on your PC monitor, or use a PC and a progressive TV monitor, via VGA or DVI. But... if you insist... you can try to convert it to field sequential anaglyph: Use VirtualDub. Download the Interlaced RGB from: http://www.geocities.com/gc_timsara/vdub.html 1) Resize the video to 720x480 (if you want a compliant DVD or SVCD). 2) Add the "Interlaced RGB" filter. Under "Even Lines" and "Cancel", click on "G" and "B". Under "Odd Lines" and "Cancel", click on "R". That should do it. Encode that to MPEG 2 and make a DVD (or SVCD). P. K.
