Put video tapes on DVD for christmas. TRANSFER ANALOGUE TAPES

We transfer video tapes using professional hardware and a professional grade VCR. You can do it at home with an expensive PC and get a 2nd generation VHS copy quality DVD you will not be impressed with. Or with us, you can get 540 lines per inch from a professional Panasonic VCR and authored on DVD using a broadcast quality program. The signal is filtered and corrected before being digitized by the TBC-1000. We also run the sound thru a processor called a BBE SONIC MAXIMIZER. Our video tape transfers are second to none because we use current state of the art technology. DON't FORGET TO INCLUDE ALL NAMES OF ALL PERSONS IN THE FOOTAGE FOR USE ON OUR STUNNING HOLLYWOOD STYLE LABELS!

Can I Transfer my commercial movie collection? To the best of our knowledge, yes. Under fair use, it is generally interpreted that you are allowed to make backup copies for personal use in your home. We are not allowed to bypass any encryption in the newer movies, per a SUPREME COURT decision last year involving 321 Studios. See also the statement published by Best Buy, a legal free advice website and more. If any companies object to this interpretation of FAIR USE on legal grounds, please contact us immediately and we will cease this aspect of our operations. We are eager to help their customers enjoy the movies they bought legally over the years when VHS was the format of choice.

Do I need a transfer? Maybe yes, maybe no. DVD provides a convenient way to improve the VHS tape by changing or improving the soundtrack and color picture using state of the art technology, also allowing for addition of credits, editing out bad parts, or turning raw amateur footage from your own wedding into a wedding video. If you have poor storage, with no true isolation from humidity, heat, magnetism and water vapor, there is real risk to the tape over the long term. You still should keep the original VHS as a master.  Tapes are designed to last for at least 20 years, and pros in the field, such as the the senior editors and CBS, NBC and other networks use TAPES for and argu they are literal permanent storage. They are lossless forever if stored and used correctly. See our article for info, read what an Apple Certified DV trainer has to say.

Brian and Shelley say:
  "Just wanted to let you know that we received the wedding DVDs yesterday. They look fantastic... The music at the beginning, the cover design, snapshots at the end, etc were an excellent touch... We are so glad that we discovered and used your service. Thanks again for a great job!"

Improve Video Signal Quality – Get clean video captures
Most video camcorders produce relatively unstable, synchronized signals. This can cause poor video image quality when capturing to your PC or recording to another deck. VCR's also produce this interference. Tapes become stretched as they age causing corrupt frames as well.
The TBC-100 corrects this by replacing all sync signals from the video source with new signals.

Our video tape transfers can avoid future decay of your video treasures.   Why would you want a video tape transfer?
  Restore sound when doing a Video Tape Transfer using a BBE sonic maximizer  
Tapes wear out fast in heat and water vapor, so a video tape transfer is critical to save the video.   Why would you not want  a video tape transfer?
True professional audio restoration

Improve Audio Signal Quality – Get clear crisp sound
Video camcorders and VCRs are designed to compress the sound signal a great deal when recording. Even in professional labs like Imax or Paramount, signal is lost. Example, a metallic ring of a triangle in an orchestra, not very loud but VERY crisp to the ear due to the instantaneous spike in sound at the initial impact of the instrument. Tapes lose all of the super high decible impact of the ting on the metal. This machine is designed to literally restore where it thinks the natural sound spike occured.
The sound is amazing, and real. Click here for a demo. Click here for reviews from major publications.

TUTORIAL ON VHS LIFE SPANS - LIES AND MYTHS

VHS LIFE SPAN - HEADLINE CLAIMS FROM FEB 2005 - Google search "8mm film transfer":

With this as a google keyword search, "Causes and symptoms of visual media deterioration" -  we found a company making a partially true statement that VHS tapes will decay faster than any other media. Not necessarily true. The national library of congress states in an inquiry on how to salvage the nations early news reels and tape masters that hard drives are not a real alternative as they tend to have a life of 8 years. VHS tape will outlast a harddrive 3 to 1. VHS also maintains more data that a DV Type I file, uncompressed Digital Video. Note a DVD plays at only 1 MB per second. A VHS plays at approximately 30MB per second. So SpyKids, as rented on one DVD at the store, if on VHS and perfectly transferred would easily consume 216,000 MB, or 216 GB of space. Companies making claims you see on Yahoo, MSN or Google searches are in a context intended to impress a reader that has basic or little knowledge about VHS, DVD and DV. I have read through their entire web and they are knowledgeable. Some claims are only somewhat accurate but miss the complete picture. I continually report bad and misleading webs to search engines. Consumers have a right to be protected. (Excerpt from our Articles section)
