As Ann stated, VHS quality is what it is. You see, VHS typically has an extremely low horizontal picture resolution to begin with. In the neighborhood of 240 to 270 effective pixels per picture height, which corresponds to an overall resolution of only 320x240 to 384x288. Nothing, in this case, can save that footage since it's worse than even broadcast analog SD, let alone FHD or UHD.

VHS is what it is Standard Definition and in a HD environment it can look blurry.
