Source Code Due to a number of requests, the source code for this project is now available on. Source. Forge. net. This project has been ongoing for a year now. In brief it has been my attempt to convert my parents library of legacy super 8 mm film to DVD. I have actually got this working and have scanned several 4. If you want to learn how I did this andor see some of the results, then read on. Note In what follows you can click on the images to enlarge. Brief Background. Like many people my age, my family has a legacy of. I. was a kid. I looked into having this footage converted to DVD as a. Christmas present for my parents and found that it would cost upwards. Instead I began to. Having explored the various possibilities. I found that I wasnt satisfied with the quality of what most. Do It Yourself jobs would produce. Most of these techniques use a. Telecine device to allow the video recording of a movie. I began to think about the possibility of. There is very. little out there on the web where people have described how to do. Also, no one seemed to want to. The closest I had.

Software Italia was doing. Since I was looking for an interesting weekend. I have a background that was languishing from lack. I figured Id give it a try. This site documents the fruits. I tried to make this. Those who know almost nothing at all of. Those interested in the particular techniques can dig. Introduction to the project. I broke the project into two major pieces. The first. is the process by which the physical media itself could be captured. I thought that each of these. I could for considerably less than the 1. The consensus among many. This. sets a lower bound on the quality of scanner I would need and gives. Initially I. calculated that, if I could scan a 5. I would have achieved my goal and it seemed that both scan. The entire project cost under 3. As far as programming the Software, Java. Software written, but there is alot in C and C interfacing with the Java. The image processing is handled by. Java. Film Capture. Early on I had various problems with scanning the film. I have. recently settled on a solution that seems to be working adequately. If you are attempting this same project then it may help you to read. I ran across when I first started this project. You can find an older writeup in the section. Early Experiences with Film Capture. It used to be difficult to find a scanner that could handle. Most flatbed scanners are designed. Fortunately there has been a number of flatbed scanners coming. While you could adapt a normal flatbed scanner to film. I would not recommend it given how inexpensive some. Since I had no intention of scanning all of that film by hand, I built a. The computer scans a portion of the film usually about 1. My original goal was to be able to scan a 5. I can do it in about 1. I owe a HUGE thanks to. I. could copy it. Wondershare Dr Fone 4 Keygen Mac. It took three attempts to get it right but I now. From multiple places on the web I found that a 5. Given the 5. 00 lines per frame requirement, and the. The Epson 4. 18. 0 is a 4. Its about 2. 00 and does a good enough job. Telecine. outfit will do. I have run it at 4. Im not sure Im getting any real. If anyone has any reason. I should be scanning at the higher. The Film Forwarder. Since I do not have much by the way of mechanical ability. It was only. as a result of finding. Todd Campbells. website that I was able to get anything working. My earlier attempts like the. The gears and axles came from. Lego parts 1. 00. DC motor is from an old. VCR. For Super. 8, the sprocket is from an old XXXX projector. I have. several Regular 8mm projectors but have yet to pull the sprockets. The main shaft is the longest Lego axle in the kit attached. Unfortunately, I needed to fashion my own film. This was difficult to get right and my early. Its the piece with. The Parallel Port Interface Electronics. Because my electronics skill are at least as bad as my mechanical skills. I decided that I would use the parallel port rather than the serial. The parallel port is much easier to control typically and doesnt. From software. you can easily set a data line high or low. There are many great sites that document the details of the parallel port. I bought a parallel port cable and cut off. Currently. I only use a single data line D0 to turn on and off the motor. The. motor is geared down so low that I didnt need the feedback that. Todd Campbells. version used. Because my Image Processing software see the section. Image Processing expects some amount of overlap between successive. I simply time the motors on period instead of utilize. I will certainly add the feedback. Not because I need to count the exact amount of film advancing as. The feedback. will allow me to shut down the forwarder and scanner if the film gets. Originally I used a simple transistor driver to switch a relay on. DC motor. At some point in. I burned out the relay and, not wanting to head out. I hooked the transistor output. To my surprise this worked fine and. I would highly recommend. PCI parallel port card for you computer rather than burn. Adding limiting diodes to protect the parallel port and. The Parallel Port Interface Software. Parallel. Port public class Port. On.

Currently, the computer language that I am most proficient in is. Java. Therefore I stuck with it. I could, and the software that controlled the motor through the. Sun provides a commapi,. Java interface to the parallel port. Unfortunately, it is. I found, quite. by accident, a much better java interface to the parallel port called. Juan Gabriel Del Cid. This is an incredibly simple and completely. A three line program. Par. Port can turn the motor on and off. To the right is a trivial example. Passing 0 or 1 on the command. Im using is D0. Using TWAIN To Control The Scanner. TWAIN is a programming specification for interfacing to Image sources like Scanners. The standard is published and maintained. The TWAIN Working Group. Before buying the Epson 4. I made sure it was TWAIN compliant. I needed to be able to write my own software. What I didnt know at the time was what a loose term TWAIN compliant really is. When I first started this project I thought that learning the TWAIN interface. In fact, it was much more difficult than. I imagined. Not only because the specification itself is loaded. Epson took advantage of. Also, TWAIN. is uniquely a Windows or Apple since they were developed by the same. Apple should have won that lawsuit specification and. Windows Apple event loop itself. Java is designed to be platform independent and access to the event. Fortunately there. TWAIN compliant devices. Its called EZTWAIN. This software not only provides a great API to access Image sources. Two major problem still remained. One was the fact that Epson used custom. TWAIN in their own software to communicate with the scanner. The other was that, in early experimenting with EZTWAIN, the scanner settings. During the first scan. Then. my software would repeat the scan but subsequent scans would have all. After the first scan I. To solve both of these problems I wrote a TWAIN command interceptor. One. good thing about the TWAIN specification is that it defines only two points. TWAIN applications.
