Digitapes did a lovely job of transferring some old TV performances of mine from VHS to digital. The whole process was smooth as silk from start to finish from dropping my tapes over to them in-person, having one of the tapes repaired (ready for transfer), having them digitised, to popping them into a Dropbox folder for me to download. The operative was also very friendly and helpful. I'd highly recommend Digitapes to anybody. Many Thanks.
This was a fantastic, quick and reliable service to digitalise my Hi8 tape. I needed a same day send over and this was a life saver! Good price and great quality. Will definitely be using again.
Really quick and efficient service. Got a cassette tape onto a file, which my mum hadn't heard in years and she was extremely happy.
Great service, converted all of my old family videos to digital files in a quick amount of time and the process was simple. Communication was very good. Would highly recommend.
These guys did the job fast, at a fraction of the cost of the other options.
It was brilliant to be able to get all my memories as a child and my family memories restored. This is truly the best thing that's happened this year! Brilliant company and customer service! Thank you

How do I convert video to DVD?
The easiest way to convert your old home videos to DVD is to use a professional digitisation service, as the process requires specialist equipment. We can transfer your videos to DVD quickly, affordably, and to the best possible standard.
How do I get old video tapes to my computer?
To digitise video tapes, you’ll need video playback machines, a USB converter, and specialist software. It’s a time-intensive process if you haven’t done it before, which is why many people choose to use specialists like Digital Converters. We can do the hard work for you.
Can a broken VCR tape be fixed?
Most VCR tapes can be fixed depending on the severity of the damage. Any splits can usually be spliced back together easily, without a great deal of video loss. An easy way to avoid the hassle of repairing a broken tape and ensure it is done correctly is to send it to a specialist digitisation company.
How do you convert VHS to digital?
The quickest, easiest way to convert VHS to digital is to use a professional digitisation service. The process takes time, skill, and the right equipment, which means it’s not easily done at home. Save time, money, and stress by using a service like Digital Converters to preserve your memories.
How long do VHS tapes last?
VHS tapes last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, depending on how well you store them. It’s advised that you digitise your VHS tapes, as even the best-kept tapes will deteriorate over time. We can digitise your home movies and ensure that no more quality is lost and your memories are safely future-proofed.
What is the best way to preserve old tapes?
Store video tapes in cool and dry conditions. This will prevent deterioration and mould from growing on the tapes. As tapes deteriorate over time in any condition, the best way to preserve the content permanently is to transfer the tapes to digital files.
