Check a file called 1986-07-09 - Newcastle.vob in my collection. It's less shitty but it has compression, colour saturation and some lines that appear randomly (like any VHS old recording, excepting the compression).
Remember that the aspect ratio is 5:4, not 4:3. This problem is happening you in some videos (I only remember one, happily).

Will do.
As for the Paris video. There are just too many completely damaged frames. I can't recreate them as the fucked up parts are too long (even if they appear for a second, remember that there are 25/30 frames per second). I could do that maybe with one frame, so we're talking barely split second issues here. But even with all that corrected the video wouldn't look that much better. Just not worth the time I think.
Oh, you might have a point. I usually do all videos 4:3 without paying too much attention. Might have to look closer in this for the next videos. Thanks for pointing out.

You mean some of my videos being 5:4? Hm, which one(s)?
I remember this: Radio Gaga - Sanremo 1984-02-04 (Chief Mouse restoration).mkv
Check it in 5:4.
...
It is better now! No?
Both of his San Remo videos are automatically 4:3 when I play them
I think you didn't got it.
The "problem" here is that that video, which plays automatically in 4:3, is really a 5:4 video. If in VLC you try to stretch it to 5:4, you will see what I point.
It looks better, more real. Less fat, less distorted, less "LCD/LED TV used by grandpas who don't know what 4:3 and 16:9 means and watch distorted TV.",
Well, the original video was 4:3. Usually I don't change the original aspect ratios (unless they are brutally stretched to 16:9 from a 4:3 source, for example). Anyway, I'll try to pay more attention to this in future.
