What is DVD?

DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) is similar to a music CD in size but can hold 6 times more data. One of the best things about DVD is the quality of the video. While a normal VHS tape only offers 200 to 300 lines of resolution, a DVD allows for a full 480 lines. This means that your picture is sharper, more detailed and reveals more 3 dimensional depth.

A virtually indestructible medium that with a little care can last forever. 

Menus direct you to pre determined places and allow you to "jump" from place to place. No need to fast-forward or rewind you have instant random access.

DVD's are the solution to preserving priceless family videos.

Why Convert my Video to DVD?

The ability for a videotape to hold its magnetic images is an uphill battle. This magnetic data changes with each play of the tape. Time, temperature and humidity also lead to premature image loss of videotaped images.

Videotape is also prone to damage due to dirty and miss-aligned VTRs. Everyone knows the frustration and heartache of their precious memories lost
forever due to the eating, tearing, stretching and jamming of a tape in a VCR.

By converting your master video you will preserve the robustness of the colors and sound for future generations to enjoy. Transferring your video to DVD not only preserves it for future use, but will also allow you to enjoy your video much more due to the much higher image quality and convenience of watching any given portion at the click of your remote.
