- Video Transfers FAQ
Discovery Media Productions, Inc. specializes in transferring older videotapes to DVD which provides excellent quality, flexibility, and ease of use in a compact media. Transferring videos to DVD is an excellent way to archive your videotaped memories onto a long-lasting media that is more compact than videotapes and will last much, much longer.
DVD archiving is a simple and cost-effective way to preserve your old videotapes. Each videotape is transferred to its own DVD, monitored in real-time to ensure quality, with a simple title screen and chapter points placed approximately every 5 minutes. Multiple tapes can be combined onto one DVD for a small additional charge, provided that the total length does not exceed 2 hours. Videotapes recorded in EP (6-hour) mode can be converted to one 6-hour DVD (not recommended) or split onto multiple DVDs for the maximum possible quality.
