ill titleLegacy video tape conversion 2025

I convert video from any popular video tape format or other video sources into popular digital formats including conventional DVD. I specialize in standard definition video as most popularly came from consumer home video cameras. I have transfer equipment for all popular consumer video cameras including Sony Betamax. Some classic video tapes formats are shown here.

ill titleDecline in the popularity of DVD media

There has been a decline in the interest to place family video on DVD in the past 3-years, as many clients have chosen to stream video or use computers and digital file formats for their video. Therefore, much of the conversion work I do takes your tape based video into digital file formats instead of DVD. From this point the video files can be placed on USB flash drives, or external USB storage drives. In my conversion process I will audit your unknown video tapes for Family Video and break it into chapters that will be saved on individual files. Typically this means Christmas, New Year events, Birthdays, Easter, and Vacations will be all individual files instead of being all crammed together. I still can place the video on DVD if you are using DVD. I can also take any family video on DVD and convert it into a digital file. Contact me directly for any project that you might have.

ill titleStudio Equipment Profile

studio2017.jpg I use Sony and JVC video equipment and Apple Macintosh Computers for native SD video conversion. I maintain conversion abilities for legacy video tape formats in VHS and 8mm NTSC, 8mm Hi8 and 8mm Digital, MiniDV and Sony Betamax. Contact me directly for discussion of your project ..... 99% of my business comes from referrals made by previous clients.
