Maybe for the VHS footage , because of generational and possible transfer issues;

But the native DV camera, don't waste your time. Or do it for fun, because 99.9% is really underestimating and conservative. It's really 100% for 4:3 NTSC DV.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_aspect_ratio

PAR (pixel aspect ratio) is known as "SAR" (sample aspect ratio) in MPEG4 terminology. They mean the same thing, they just decided to change names. You can think of it as the w:h of the pixels . Eitherway 10:11 is correct . It's been confirmed many, many times over the years, and it's official in all the documentation and ISO standards

Here is another recent example from another forum from a DV camera
https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/...e5#post2547654

4/3 = 704/480 * 10/11



And definitely, "archive" is the original DV footage . Keep that safe. Something better might come along (definitely for scaling; but nothing on the horizon in the near future for deinterlacing compared to QTGMC, but you never know, some parts of it can be improved such as the NNEDI3 routines)
