Ever since I switched to the "VHS Format" for YouTube videos, I've been working on a series of intro videos that utilize an actual VHS in the process of making these intro videos.
In this scenario, this is a test recording WITHOUT deinterlacing done, to see how the output video would come out like.
Apps Used:
Adobe Photoshop CC 2018
Final Cut Pro X
FCP Effects:
Bad TV, Projector (the other artifacts, snow, and distortion is from the VHS tape's natural wear and tear)
VHS Recorder used:
1987 Panasonic PV-S4764 S-VHS
VHS Tape used:
1997 TDK T-120 cassette
Capture Card:
ION Video2PC MK II USB video capture card (via S-Video)

Here is a test run with medium raytracing settings enabled, and mixed high/ultra on 1440p resolution. This was to push my RTX 2070 Super to its limits to see how much I can squeeze out of it.
In 1440p, I get anywhere between 31-40fps, as opposed to 54-65fps in 1080p or 51-80fps with raytracing disabled on 1440p.
DLSS is set to performance to improve framerates.
