Just as the day ticks away so does the video tape technology. What happens in
the near future when your video camera or video tape player needs to be repaired? You'll most likely replace
it with a digital camera and a DVD player. Let us stop the clock and digitally transfer your
video tapes to DVD before they and the technology that made them are gone forever.

At Digital Express we record at Standard Play SP speed
only, due to the reduced video quality and VCR deck incompatibilities arising
from speed changes using LP and EP Modes. If you are converting more than 60
minutes of video tape to MiniDV tape you will require additional
MiniDV tapes. Example, you have a VHS video tape that was recorded using SP mode for a total of
120 minutes,
you will need 2 (60 minute) MiniDV tapes at $24.95 ea.
Custom designed
just for you!
DVD Disc and Case are
printed in color using high-resolution text, graphics and photos.

Movie Conversion - If you are transferring your video tape to DVD and also want
a digital movie file, for your website or emailing to friends &
family, (QuickTime®,
RealMedia™, or Windows Media). A flat rate of $24.95 will cover up
to 60 minutes of conversion, $0.43 per minute thereafter. See our
format conversion page for further details.
Custom
Music -
The addition of music to the background of a video tape
that has no audio brings the full experience to your DVD production. Some people
had transferred 8mm movie films to VHS tape years ago without any music and have
sent us the tape to transfer to DVD and add music. We offer the placement of royalty free music tracks throughout the
entire production for no additional charge. Please see our
music track page for further information.
If you choose to use your own
custom
music we can use your CD’s, audio cassettes, or vinyl records.
A flat rate of $19.95
will cover up to 60 minutes of music to your production, and $0.33 per minute thereafter.
