- Looking for video editor to improve lighting and saturation
- Posted by fairywearsboots on July 7th, 2008
Hello,
I have a video converted from an old VHS video which looks like it was shot
on a late November afternoon though the roses around the house are in full
bloom. Now I'm looking for a program that lets me get summer back into the
video, i. e. improve lighting and saturation. As I probably will never need
it again, I'd rather not shell out a lot for commercial software.
Is there some freeware around? I have .vob, .avi and .flv copies of the
video and can convert it to some other formats, so I guess it's not a
problem if the program works only with one format.
Thanks for your help!

VirtualDub is freeware and has filters that adjust lighting and saturation.

Avidemux also has filters for lighting adjustments.

It doesn't necessarily help to re-encode, which invariably introduces
a new set of artifacts on top the old old encode. If there's some
fuzz or blockiness to the old, and greater "lightness" is encoded
over, result can well be bigger, brighter blocks and more apparent
fuzz.
