We can convert video tapes from the following  format:

• VHS
• S-VHS  
• VHS C   
• Hi8  
• Video 8 
• Digital 8
• Mini DV

 Converting to DVD

• We can still convert to DVD BUT don’t recommend this because:-
• It has become an phased out format
• The reliablity of the discs
• Not easlily shared
• We can convert any current DVD’s to digital format on USB

Hard Drive or USB Memory Stick

• This is the cheapest option to store your video before you lose your valuable memories 
• Normally provided  in AVI format, suitable for video editing software – for the do it yourself, File size is approx 13g per hour of footage.
• This format can be viewed on a desktop computers.
• We can supply in other formats, like mp4 which is approx 1.6g per hr of footage
• Warning – not all TV’s will play these types of video formats.  Check  with manufacturer of the TV to find suitable format if any.

All our conversions are processed in 2 stages:

• 1. From video tape into computer’s edit suite.                                                                          
• This allows the conversion to be cleaned by removing tape dropouts and audio is set to a normal level.

Optional:

  To process  the conversion to remove most noise (snow)*  with min effect on the detail of the picture. 

• We strongly recomend this be done on any analogue tapes.  Results are can be outstanding. 
• This will enhance your viewing by making it look more digital in the picture quality
• ALL ANALOGUE VIDEOS WILL HAVE NOISE IN VARYING DEGREE

2. From the Edit Suite it is converted  to a  USB Device.

 This technique is far superior than recording  straight to USB Device
