What you can expect from us.

Your memories are irreplaceable - this is how we’ll take care of them

We 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.

Glasgow’s Favourite Video to DVD Converter

Watching old home videos at family get-togethers is a wholesome experience brimming with nostalgia. Whether it’s laughing at your da’s footage from a rainy hike up Ben Nevis, or seeing 90’s birthday parties or graduations, or even revisiting a romantic wedding day in the dramatic scenery of Skye's Cuillin Hills. These videos are priceless keepsakes.

Yet, as technology marches on, the unfortunate reality hits: fewer folks have the means to play these VHS tapes - VHS players are becoming scarce, and the tapes themselves are degrading due to Scotland’s moist and unpredictable climate, which can erode their quality over time.

Transitioning from VHS to DVD presents a sturdier, higher-quality medium on which to store and enjoy these precious memories. DVDs are better suited to withstand the Scottish temperatures and humidity, and are compatible with modern playback devices, ensuring that you can relive your favourite moments with clarity and ease, whether you're in your home in Glasgow, visiting relatives in Edinburgh or on the train to Inverness.

At Digital Converters, we’re experts in converting VHS tapes to DVD, having transformed hundreds of thousands of hours of footage. Our top-of-the-line equipment and highly skilled technicians, combined with a genuine passion for nostalgia, make us your premier choice for bringing those old tapes back to life.

The process is straightforward: simply select your service online, then a Royal Mail postie will collect them from your home in Glasgow, and we’ll take care of the rest. Your tapes are in the safest hands with us, treated with utmost care and professionalism, and returned ready for you to cherish with loved ones all over Scotland. Let us help you preserve those invaluable memories for future generations. Trust us to seamlessly integrate your past into the present.
