Videotapes Converted to DVD

Are you afraid the VCR is going to eat your wedding tape? Is your 8mm camcorder broken and you no longer can view your child’s first steps? Do you even own a VCR anymore? Did you know that VHS tape has a shelf life of only 10-15 years before it starts to degrade?

Videotapes were once thought of as the very best way to save the family memories. They met our needs until we discovered that after 10 years or so, the images started fading and the tapes started breaking down. The bad news is that once deteriorated, the quality of the tape is for the most part, lost forever. Yes, with some color adjustment, we may be able to salvage some of your tapes, but many elements of your video can never be regained no matter how much correction we try to do to it.

Video Doc Productions can take your VHS or Betamax tapes, Camcorder Cassettes including VHS-C, Hi 8, 8mm, Digital 8, Mini DV tapes and MiniDVDs and transfer them to DVD.

By moving your tapes to DVD, you are converting them to a digital format, eliminating the deterioration process that tape goes through. DVDs are also easier to copy than VHS tapes. Making disk copies for family members promotes family bonding and makes great gifts.

PRESERVE YOUR VIDEOTAPES TO DVD BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

We just saved over 45 videotapes for a family that had a house fire.

They thought all their tapes were ruined. Video Doc Saved The Day!

Most of the tapes were inside a plastic storage container.

The outside of each tape was covered with smoke and soot but the tape inside

was fine. I took the tape out of the shell and put it into a new tape shell

and then copied them onto a DVD.

The family told me that my services are PRICELESS after saving

their family memories from a devastating house fire!

Can you imagine how terrible it would be to loose all your precious moments

of your family's history? Video Doc Productions can help!

Every time you watch your videotapes, the quality is reduced slightly.

The mechanical nature and magnetic videotape causes them to degrade over time.

Typical videotapes have a shelf life of roughly 10 years.

Eventually, your tape will become nothing but a snowy, static-filled memory.

You can extend the life of your memories by making the conversion to DVD today!

DVD's will last approximately 100 years, and the quality will be exactly the same every time you watch it.

Each DVD can hold up to 2 hours of video, and you may optionally choose to have

multiple tapes consolidated on to a single DVD.

Video Doc Productions can even help you convert your entire home video library to DVD!

Think of the space you'll save, alone!

Here's a tip on how you can help yourself while you select the tapes you want us to preserve for you.

EXERCISE YOUR VIDEOTAPES

Videotapes will not last forever!

It is recommended that you "exercise" your videotapes at least once a year.

Just like we must exercise to stay fit, so do your videotapes.

1. You should place your tapes in your VCR and press STOP first to prevent the tape

     from going into automatic play mode.

2. Then press Fast Forward (FF). Let the tape go to the end and then rewind.

    This will physically move your videotapes and prevent them from any potential signal loss.

    When a videotape is wound together, the tape that has your electronic signal on it can electronically

    "bleed" together and potentially loose that signal if it is not periodically moved from

    one part of the tape to another.

3. You should do this at least once a year on all videotapes that you want to keep for future use.

4. Then select the most important ones you want to keep and have Video Doc Productions

     convert them to a DVD for preservation and future enjoyment.

Video Doc Productions treats each job like it is one of our own personal jobs.

The utmost care is taken to time-out each videotape, label them carefully and

customize the DVD to your liking.

** You must first check your DVD manual to insure that it will play a "DVD-R" format DVD.

The newer DVD machines will have no problem playing this type of disk.

DVD machines older than year 2003 may not play these type of disks.
