    That is normal for the hacked firmware, playback is broken. To improve the image quality, more memory is used for capture, so on the unit playback suffered.

    Hacking the Kodak Reels 8mm Film Digitizer (New Thread)

    If you want the best quality, just scan at 15, then roll back a few seconds, than continue when it crashes. Then re-assemble the clips in an editor. If you have a lot to scan, just change the Qp live, whenever you can, do not stop capture, as you can only change during capture. There is no...

    Increase the Qp in captures are stopping. At Qp 16, scene noise/grain can crash the encoder (but it does look pretty.) Try Qp around 21 or 22. If the capture crashes, just restart of the unit.

    Unfortunately I still have a bricked type D, so nothing to work with at the moment. More importantly I will not likely have any free time for this project until late May. I hope I can then recover the D unit I have, and start again. However, a lot of the development will need to be from...

    Start with the documentation: https://tinkerdifferent.com/resources/user-guide-and-reference-to-0dan0s-custom-firmware-for-the-reels-8mm-film-digitizer.165/ Most of the new controls are only available during capture. You have a C unit, no point installing B or stock firmware.

    The look up page hasn't be updated with the newer serial numbers. That is Type C. Fortunately it doesn't matter, you can install the wrong version, then install the correct firmware, and it will fine.

    CX is weird, but 1725 is likely Type C. Serial numbers type and Models: A2021 A J2021 A M2021 A P2021 A A2022 A M2023 B A2724 B E3124 B D2825 B (outlier) H2324 C K3124 C C1725 C H2825 D K2225 D

    There is nothing much useful for Type D units yet. Type D is H2825 and K2225 models.
