Media Conversion Services
Digicom offers media transfer services at very affordable prices. Transfer your video or audio to digital format for download, or written to a USB Flash Drive. Every day, that tape media is deteriorating in quality just by sitting there. Stop the loss of valuable video/audio by converting it to digital files today!
** Due to the decline in availability of DVD’s and writers, we no longer write videos to DVD, only to digital files.
— Multiple studies have shown magnetic media that is stored in good conditions (humidity,
temperatures, free of dust & magnetic fields), they still will decay 10-20% over 10 years. —
*** Only Non-Copyrighted Materials can be converted ***
All media conversion services are subject to a $20 minimum order.
Video Formats
Transfer your video to digital format for download, or have it written to DVD. Every day, that tape media is deteriorating in quality just by sitting there. Stop the loss of valuable video by converting it to digital files today! We can convert VHS, VHS-C, Hi8, MiniDV, Beta and BetaMax.
We like to remind everyone that old video formats only use, at best, 576 pixels (most 480). While that video will convert over to new formats and be able to fill the screen in a letterboxed mode, it will not be HD quality. It can only work with the video format it was recorded in originally and do the best it can to fill in the gaps. The graphic above will give you an idea of the difference in size quality between all the standards.

Super8 Film / 8mm Film Reels
We digitize each frame of the film individually directly from the film, not captured by a projection which can cause flicker and distortion. 8mm film is decaying as you read this, causing the pictures on the film to be lost forever. It’s time to digitize that film, so you don’t lose valuable memories. Once in digital format, it can be viewed on a computer, tablet and even cell phone, or written to a DVD. Please note that we are not able to capture sound.
