SERVICES
We digitise and enhance VHS, VHS-C, VHS-S, Hi8, MiniDV, Mini DVD etc footage into reliable MP4 files for long-term preservation.
All our standard video conversions are upscaled to 720p/1080p.
What does Upscaling do?
Stretches the Image: It expands the low-resolution VHS image to fit a 1080p frame, preventing pixelation.
Digitising and upscaling preserves the content, making it viewable on current devices.
​
In short, upscaling makes your VHS look as good as possible on a 1080p screen by cleaning up imperfections and fitting the frame, but it's an enhancement, not a miracle cure for the original low resolution.
We also push the image through Time Base Correction (TBC) equipment which is highly effective at correcting tearing, flag-waving, and signal instabilities found in poor-quality or degraded tapes.
We use a mixture of Elgato Blackmagic, high end capture cards and Time Base Correction (TBC) hardware.
We can also convert NTSC and repair broken tapes.
