What if I want something done with my video that I don't see advertised on your site?

We will usually tailor to your needs. We are a more personalized digital service. Just call and ask.

Will the DVD play on my DVD player?

Our DVD's can be played by the vast majority of DVD-ROM drives and home video players in use today. We record on Verbatim DVD-R format disc's with an excellent compatibility rating. You can verify that your DVD player is capable of playing a DVD-R disc at www.videohelp.com

How long will data recorded on Verbatim DVD disc remain readable?

The life span of a recorded disc depends upon such things as the intrinsic properties of the materials used in the disc's construction, its manufactured quality, how well it is recorded and its physical handing and storage. Verbatim carries out accelerated age testing by subjecting samples of its discs to environments that are beyond those experienced under normal storage conditions. Based on its extensive testing, Verbatim DVD-R lasts about 100 years

What is the difference between a DVD and CD?

DVD is very similar to a CD, but it has a much larger data capacity. A standard DVD holds about seven times more data than a CD does. This huge capacity means that a DVD has enough room to store a full-length, MPEG-2-encoded movie, as well as a lot of other information.
