Is their a filter to remove bearding? - Miranda - 22.09.2023

Information on bearding here: http://www.avartifactatlas.com/artifacts/bearding.html

I can upload a clip if required.

There is no specialized filter for it afaik., but johnmeyer (over at videohelp; https://www.youtube.com/@johnmeyer77) might have a script specifically for those issues, since he deals a lot with old captures.
If it's light, SpotLess/Despot/KillerSpot and some of the denoisers might help.
When it's stronger: No hope, proper capturing is needed.
Folks over at https://forum.videohelp.com/ and https://www.digitalfaq.com/forum/video-restore/ can help with figuring out how to properly capture stuff.

Cu Selur

Ps.: iirc. NeatVideo can handle that quite good.
PPs.: I can look at it this evening and maybe suggest something, if you share a clip.

You're right, I tried a different VCR and there is no bearding. Must be a problem with the other VCRs heads.

Best read a few threads over at https://forum.videohelp.com/ there are from time to time suggestions about what VCRs are good etc. I personally have near zero experience with VCRs since I usually get the stuff after it was captured, I just can tell what it should look like when captured properly.
