ntsc-rs is a free, open-source VHS and analog TV video effect. Use it online in your browser, as a standalone application, or as a plugin for DaVinci Resolve, After Effects, and more.

Hi everyone!
ntsc-rs is the kind of retro tool I actually love.
Most VHS filters fake the vibe from the outside. ntsc-rs goes lower-level and simulates the NTSC/VHS signal path itself, so the artifacts feel less like a preset and more like the real mess.
You can use it as a standalone app, in the browser, or as a plugin inside Premiere, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, and other OpenFX editors.
There is something funny about this category. The artifacts people once tried so hard to avoid are now becoming the look people want back.
Maybe every medium eventually turns its failure modes into aesthetics..!

@zaczuo instant upvote! Will check it out later today.
I dig this.. Especially that last line about every medium turning its failure modes into aesthetics. That's gonna stick with me. Happens in music too, tape hiss and distortion were problems people spent decades engineering out, now we pay for plugins to put them back. Funny world we live in. Cool project.
I really like this idea. Dont know why maybe becouse I was back then a teenager I used to use VHS casettes to record tv programms and rent movies on that formats. your solution gives me back that nostalgia feeling that is pretty rewarding. I added similar effect to my app, like monochromatic cinematoskope on which I watched VHS cassettes, So I pretty understand your concept. It is really really Great!
