VOB/MPEG2 restoring workflow

Hi,

what's the best choice for restoring a MPEG2 file (VOB demuxed from a DVD)?

MPEG2 to H.264 ?

MPEG2 to DNxHR?

MPEG2 to Prores?

MPEG2 to DV25?

MPEG2 to TIFF?

Can we use a proxy video file?

Thanks!

PS

goal: good stability of application during editing

  • I think this is perfect for now:

    ffmpeg -i input.avi -map 0:0 -c:v dnxhd -vf "pad=960:720:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2,fps=25,format=yuv422p" -b:v 42M output_for_phoenix.mov

    Source file is:

    Codec ID                                 : DX50
Codec ID/Hint                            : DivX 5
Duration                                 : 1 h 26 min
Bit rate                                 : 1 236 kb/s
Nominal bit rate                         : 7 800 kb/s
Width                                    : 608 pixels
Height                                   : 464 pixels
Display aspect ratio                     : 4:3
Frame rate                               : 29.970 (30000/1001) FPS

    result (perfect for dnxhd size compatibility):

    • Mario Rossi Ideally you want to convert to an intraframe codec, so it's easier to process and will yield better results. DNX and Prores family are the most commonly used.
