Hardware UP-SCALING From Standard Definition to HD 1080p
NOW OFFERING Hardware UP-SCALING from Standard Definition to HD 1080p of Beta Cassettes, MiniDV cassette, Hi8/Digital8/Video8 and VHS tape to HD 1080p.
Cost: $22.50/hr of video.
Due to the higher resolution and post-processing, this CAN take longer on orders depending on the length of the tape/number of tapes in the order. The better the condition of the video tape, the better the picture.
NOTE: The end result may not always be the pristine pin-point sharp picture as if it was right off of a blu-ray disc as many factors come into play- particularly the age of the video tape/etc. Yet this DOES give a notably better re-production of the tape- particularly when watching on larger TV screens. The resolution from most Video Cassettes as we know them was anywhere from 320 X 240 (early video cassettes, 4 x 3), 640 X 480 (later video cassettes (4 x 3) or 720 x 480 (16 x 9) when widescreen was introduced.
The Hardware upscaler is in between the tape’s player and the computer while on record, giving either the resolution of 1440 X 1080 (upscaled from 320 x 240 or 640 X 480) or 1920 X 1080 (upscaled from 720 x 480.)

Testimonial
“Nigel not only does great work at a reasonable price but the title of his company ‘Recapture Your Memories’ is true.
Having access to old pictures, especially ones of people who aren’t with me any more, has kept them very much alive for me.In my case, the pictures even move so the people in them really are alive!
Even in the reduced income of retirement I was able to share this gift with my sister because I could afford to have our old home movies made digital.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nigel to anyone who wants their memories recaptured.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Digital 8?
Digital 8 is a format in the digital camcorder market, introduced by Sony in 1999. It uses the same physical tape as Hi8 but records in digital rather than analog, offering better video quality. This format allows for easy transfer to digital devices since the video is already in a digital format.
How to Transfer Digital 8 Tape to DVD?
Transferring Digital 8 tapes to DVD involves using a Digital8 camcorder or player, connecting it to a computer using an A/V or Firewire cable, and capturing the footage using video capture software. Once captured, the digital files can be edited if desired and then burned to a DVD using DVD authoring software.
