Slight tangent. But I've recently been pulling old home videos off of MiniDV tapes. And I've found that the ffmpeg dv1 decoder can correct several tape issues when re-encoding from dv1 to essentially any modern codec. So I've got like 3GB video files that look incredibly poor, but then I re-encode them into h264 files that look better than the original. It's baffling how well that works.
