Free yourself from obsolete VCRs and the defunct VHS format!
RetroMedia's VHS to Digital Brisbane transfers of your VHS tapes save them to future-proof, easy-to-play digital video on USB, as well as DVD.
Why Transfer VHS to digital? Because they won't last! VHS tape was never designed to be an archival medium. It is often said to have an expected lifespan of just ten to fifteen years! That lifespan can be shortened even further when tapes are not properly cared for. So all over this country precious memories on VHS tapes are gradually fading away…
RetroMedia is Australia's #1 Google-rated service for cleaning, repair and digital transfer of VHS tapes - even those that are much older than above-mentioned safe lifespan. Because we clean every tape we have the best success rate in the industry for video conversions, preserving your memories for future generations as modern, convenient, future-proof Mp4 video files supplied on USB.
Why USB? For more than 10 years now we have not recommended DVD as a delivery medium, because of durability, longevity & equipment obselence issues. Writeable DVDs have fallen FAR short of the outrageous longevity promises made by disc manufacturers. We've encountered people bringing in DVDs that have failed & are unrecoverable in as few as 5 short years.
Imagine if that was your memories! Add to this the fact that DVD is being rapidly phased out. We can produce DVDs additional to your future-proof mp4 files if required, but we no longer offer transfers to DVD only.
Even just playing VHS tapes can cause damage. Old VCRs can easily chew your tape. Dust, mould & cosmic radiation all conspire together to degrade your memories.
Watch Out! Some cheap services outsource their transfer work offshore. We guarantee all VHS digitising is done in our Brisbane locations. Your videos never leave our premises without us advising you.
One of our main points of difference is that we clean each VHS tape before converting it. This way we can be sure that they are looking their best when they are transferred.
Many others will advise you to throw away mouldy VHS tapes. You don't have to listen to thus "advice" any longer. RetroMedia can save 98% of mouldy VHS tapes.
Worried your VHS tape has broken? We can repair almost any video tape damage - even flood damage - and rescue the memories.
Because a VCR and a VHS tape don't always match as well as they should, we maintain a wide range of professional VCRs of different brands. This is so we can choose the best matching deck for your VHS tape.
Specialty equipment like Time-base Correctors stabilise damaged VHS tapes. We can also crop & adjust colour as we digitise.
Most VHS tapes have some blank or worthless footage. We digitally top & tail your videos removing most black, blue-screen & static from your footage. We also offer optional "picture noise" reduction, for your most important memories.
Every tape is transferred at it's full native resolution.
We transfer directly to future-proof Mp4 files. We can optionally further convert to DVD by request. DVD only available as an add-on to a transfer to digital video files.
Want to get your VHS transferred to DVD or USB? For all the above-listed reasons and more, it's clear that RetroMedia is the smart choice for a great job on converting VHS to digital. And of course all of your original media will be returned to you with your digital versions at the end of the project.
Gather up your media and drop it over or ship it to our Brisbane store. No need to thoroughly organise it all. Just a basic sort out, and a quick dust off & we can take care of the rest.
RetroMedia will professionally convert your old VHS tapes to future-proof digital formats.
