"Very thrilled
with the outcome of the 70 year old slides that you converted to digital files for me. The end product was a lot better than I expected. This was the first time I have seen pictures of my father from when he was a young boy in the 1950s. He passed last year and these keepsakes are very treasured."

"I was very pleased
with Nostalgic Media. First, leading up to placing my order, I called them and got someone on the phone immediately, no 1 minute recording. My questions were answered and I submitted my material and payment. The sending was quick and I was notified of shipping dates. Would use their services again."
Tom R. -
"Nostalgic media delivered
just as they advertised. They converted my 55+ year old 8mm reels into digital media and now my family can relive some golden moments that I had feared were lost to memory. They were fast and gave me a product better than what I had hoped for. I recommend them without hesitation."

Common Questions About Our Video to Digital Service
-
No. Each video tape is converted to a separate archival grade DVD. We create our DVDs according to industry standards for Video and Data DVDs. Our DVDs will play on nearly any stand-alone DVD player. If your DVD player was manufactured after 2001 and reads DVD-R media (the most common type), it’s likely to play the DVD. Some Blu-Ray players will not play any type of recordable media, please consult your player's owner's manual to determine compatibility with DVD-R type media.
-
Other video formats we transfer include: VHS, VHS-C, S-VHS, MiniDV, Hi8/Video8/Digital8, Beta, PAL, and DVCAM.

While some tracking issues can be alleviated, we cannot guarantee tracking issues will be eliminated completely. Tape age and deterioration play an important factor in tape quality.
