this can be a tough one to solve. what capture card do you have and is there a setup option on it? if not what are the caption options available on your editing software? more often than not it is down to poor capture setings. in rare cases it is your monitor. to check if it is the monitor capture edit and export back to a different tape then play the original tape back and the edited one to see if there is a difference.
