We've recently started making video tapes of animations produced on a  
NeXTDimension.  The process is simple and painless, but the imagery is  
pretty fuzzy and flickers in an annoying way.

Some have suggested that the ND output contains more lines than a VHS  
recorder can display (something like 480 vs 330), and that the image  
quality problems can only be solved by recodring to superVHS.   
Unfortunately, this would eliminate the portability of the video produced  
since not all conference rooms, etc, are equipped with S-VHS VCRs. 

Does anybody know of a way to reduce the distortion or clean up the image  
quality of VHS recordings made off of the ND?  Specifically, we're  
interested in any way to tweak the ND to produce a VHS-compatible signal  
to reduce the flicker problem.

Thanks for any help.
