Video to DVD
We can copy your precious VHS,Video 8 and Hi8 tapes to DVD. To give better compatibly we do not use a home DVD recorder but a professional capture card linked to one of our computers. To ensure the end result is of a high quality each DVD is limited to two hours of video, a tape of longer duration will be split over two DVD's.
DVD formats
We only use high quality discs, usually Verbatim, as these have a long lifetime expectancy (see write-up on DVD-R Gen discs). The two main types of discs are " - R" and " + R", normally we use DVD-R discs as most DVD players can play them. If you know that your player will only play DVD+R discs please let us know and we will use these instead. Due to compatibility problems we cannot give a 100% guarantee that discs will play on every DVD player. There are various web sites that give advice about compatibility one of them being Videohelp.com or telephone us for help.
