Sharing with friends and familyWe only use professional-grade equipment, which we keep well maintained, to get the best possible quality from your tapes.
Each tape goes through a careful process: we inspect it first and make any needed repairs. For VHS and VHS-C tapes with mould, we clean them before transfer. After the initial transfer, we check the quality. If there are any issues, we'll transfer the tape again using different machines and settings, choosing the best version for your digital files.
Our success rate speaks for itself - around 95% of tapes are digitised with good picture quality, and over 99% of tapes are successfully transferred regardless of their condition.
Gathering round to watch home videos at a family get-together, enjoying (or “enjoying”) clips from friends’ holidays, reminiscing about weddings and parties…
Safe to say, old video formats like Hi8 tapes hold some of life’s best memories.
But, as technology has moved on, fewer people than ever have anything to play them on, and these old tapes are gradually breaking down and deteriorating.
Converting Hi8 tapes to digital formats is the perfect way to preserve and relive those precious memories.
Tapes like Hi8s are the media we convert most often, digitising hundreds of thousands of hours since we started Digital Converters. We’ve got the best equipment, highly-trained technicians, and a shameless love for nostalgia.
Your tapes couldn’t be in safer hands!
