Rotterdam film source 1978-04-20 [stabilized]

[i]The original video was uploaded here - [url=http://www.queenzone.com/forums/1423475/1978-04-20-rotterdam-ahoy.aspx]http://www.queenzone.com/forums/1423475/1978-04-20-rotterdam-ahoy.aspx[/url][/i]  I didn't want to do anything with it but when I did some tests I found it's a very good video for stabilizing. And thought - why not?  There is some cropping due to stabilizing but I believe none of the important information in the shot is lost.  I also reduced the heavy grain and removed the duplicates and made it real 25 FPS with interpolation so that it looks a bit smoother in motion.  What I ended up with I believe is almost as good as a pro video now. Maybe not really, but now it looks smoother and more steady and a bit cleaner. Some of you might prefer the original though - it looks more like a handheld camera and makes you think you're there, it's more raw (obviously).  This is a slightly different representation of this amazing super 8 mm source. I hope you will find it as a good alternative. The grain is still there although it's not nearly as strong. The youtube video is not an accurate representation due to compression.  Watch this -     [url=https://mega.nz/#!GRNF3C7S!EYyLTwbcoXJ4EKVyN0AEbPSBpHLxQwoeNGIYV3uCZ8s]https://mega.nz/#!GRNF3C7S!EYyLTwbcoXJ4EKVyN0AEbPSBpHLxQwoeNGIYV3uCZ8s[/url] .

It's exactly the same. VLC doesn't display it correctly.
For some reason there are glitches with MPEG-2 files in VLC, for example Antiden's files which skip and according to VLC run about 5 seconds.

Both VLC AND format factory are showing your mkv as 7.02 but the original vob share was 6:48
