Video Purifier codec
by Robert L. Kopf on Oct 28, 2009 at 2:37:35 pm

I'm going through the process of familiarizing myself with Innobits' Video Purifier, I've read the manual, and have done a couple of trial runs on a few clips. I have a couple of questions for anyone here who's using it. I'd like to speed up my learning curve a little. I'm running Video Purifier on a Core 2 Duo iMac, processing footage brought from an old Media 100 system, using a portable, external drive.

On page 17 of the manual, they talk a little bit about codecs. I am digitizing mostly component analog with a Media 100i v8.2.3a system. I always use the "Lossless" option. So I'm assuming that I don't need to do anything on the input side of using Video Purifier. When selecting an output codec, the manual suggests using FCP Uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2 (v210), but I don't see any choice in the list that says exactly that. I'm choosing the one that says 10-bit uncompressed 4:2:2. Is that the same thing? What are the best settings for interlacing and gamma (and anything else for that matter)? And how much threshold should one use as a starting point when processing well lit, etc. stuff? Is there such a thing as too much, or does the increase in denoising just come at a price of longer processing time? I know I can just judge for myself. But I'm interested to hear what people's experiences have been.

I also have to deal with some mini-DV footage that I'm importing to the Media 100i using its DV option connector. I've never used that before. So any pointers anyone may have relating to that will be much appreciated. I'm particularly interested in what kinds of improvements can be obtained from running the mini-DV footage through Video Purifier, recommended settings, etc.

Thanks in advance for your time!
