Magnetic media like cassette and consumer VHS tapes last 10-30 years depending on how much they are played and how they are stored.

Studies show that videotapes can begin to fade after only one play!

Transfer your VHS tapes to DVD now!

DVDs are read by laser so there is no wear and tear from play, since nothing touches the disc!

Straight transfer (no editing):

All straight VHS transfer projects are logged and converted to DVD format in real time with no editing. We include a custom designed DVD case and a full color thermal transfer printed disc.

The cost is $19.95 for each 2 hour VHS source tape.

DVDs can hold a maximum of 2 hours. To preserve the quality we suggest a maximum of 1.5 hours per DVD. If your material fills more than one DVD we can use dual layer DVDs or turn your project into a multi-disc set for an additional charge.

VHS transfer with editing:

Video editing: $55.00 per hour (*Unlike our competitors, we do not charge extra to capture your video)

All highlight video projects include video editing, sound enhancement, chapter markers at all of your important scenes, a custom DVD scene selection menu, 2 DVD copies in a custom designed DVD case and a full color thermal transfer printed disc label.

DVDs are expected to have a longevity of anywhere from 20 to 300 years depending on the materials and dye formulations used to make them. Discs with inkjet printable surfaces, for example, will not last as long as DVD discs with surfaces that use the thermal transfer “silk screen” printing process, such as the discs that Encore DVD Productions use!
