Best DVD Solutions is no exception either as many of their clients often overlook some of their more specialized services. One such service is the colorization of film. Many 8mm films where shot in black and white and as such many owners of such movies often wonder what their films would look like in color.

Betamax To DVD Transfers Now Available At Best DVD Solutions

Every decade has it's own dominate form of media. In the decades prior to the 70's 8mm film and slides where the predominate way to enjoy media in the home. The advent of the VHS and accompanying VCR caused older formats to fade away into obscurity. VHS ruled supreme for nearly two decades and it wasn't until the mid 90's and the introduction of the DVD player that a clock was put on the life the VHS. During this decade DVD stood strong above all other formats and is still the most popular format for viewing movies and home made materials.

The middle part of this decade was marked by a format war between Toshiba's HDDVD and Sony's Blu Ray, both touted as successors to the DVD format. Blu Ray eventually won the support of movie & television studios and the public as well and HDDVD faded from store shelves. This recent format war isn't the first as many might think however. Beginning in the 70's and lasting through the early part of the 80's Sony's Betamax went head to head with JVC's VHS. Both formats had their pros and cons but in the end it was the VHS that came out on top which lead to VHS becoming the predominate video format for years to come. VHS camcorders became accessible in both price and availability to the public and recording home videos became wildly popular during those times.

Betamax too had it's own line of hand held personal video recorders and though limited and somewhat bulky in size owners of those cameras also created home videos, videos that are now difficult to watch. While today's Blu Ray players are backwards compatible with virtually any region matching DVD, DVD and Blu Ray players are not capable of playing either Betamax or VHS cassettes as one technology deals with analog tape and the other with digital encoding.

So what must an owner of Betamax cassettes do if they want to watch their old home movies. As Betamax was hard to find shortly after the format war ended, they're so rare these days finding one that's functional can be nothing short of impossible. Owners of Betamax cassettes lucky enough to find a functional player must then contend with a multitude of hindrances that can make watching old movies more of a chore than a pleasure. Once a player is procured the owner must then find ways to add it to their modern entertainment centers, albeit temporarily, and then find out whether it's even possible to connect it to their modern television set. Many modern TV's lack the input jacks needed to play such archaic equipment, while other sets are already overloaded with cable, satellite, video game, DVD, and Blu Ray inputs. Disconnecting any of these can often be a hassle and is a common "stop" point for those wishing to view old Betamax movies. Even if a player can be found and it can be properly connected to a modern television set, owners will be quick to point out that both the video and audio quality are poorer than they remember. Not only do Betamax cassettes wear with each play but modern video and audio equipment often expose flaws in older formats as there simply isn't enough data to process resulting in low quality image and sound.

Betamax owners might then ask themselves, "is there a way to keep my old videos from degrading further", or "how can I enjoy these movies without hassle or great expense?" The answers to questions like those lie with Best DVD Solutions, the premiere video conversion company. Best DVD Solutions is most famous for their VHS to DVD transfers but very few people know that they also offers services for transferring Betamax to DVD as well. In fact the two services are nearly identical in procedure and finished product as Betamax to DVD transfers receive the same care as VHS to DVD transfers do.



Betamax 1 and Betamax 2 transfers to DVD are first received by Best DVD Solutions and are then put through the rigorous digitizing process. That also means that Betamax to DVD transfers performed by Best DVD Solutions receive the same video and audio enhancements that VHS to DVD transfers do. Keeping in mind that enhancements are determined and limited by the original source material, poor audio quality and sub par video quality can be improved upon. Digitizing a Betamax video will allow dynamic vibrancy to be added to visuals while uneven, overpowering, or unusually soft audio, can all be brought to acceptable levels that will sound great when played through modern audio equipment. Furthermore the enhanced video will look much smoother during playback on modern DVD players and digital televisions, making watching old movies a much more enjoyable experience.

If the enhancements available through a Betmax to DVD transfer aren't enough to convince you to submit your old videos for transfer then consider this. Betamax cassettes much like VHS cassettes and other technologies of that era wear with each viewing. Movies left in storage, even those kept in cases, are subject to natural elements. Movies tucked away in a box somewhere may be safe from wind and water but heat, dust, and even bacteria can all eat away at the videos, which can easily render the movie unplayable. Common home made movies include videos of holidays, family, children long since grown, and even friends and family who may have passed on. Is leaving these types of videos to time and the elements smart, is it something you want to chance?

The transferring of Betamax to DVD provides owners of such precious home movies with an opportunity to place their videos on a medium that is built to last a lifetime and one that is far more durable that any other format. DVD discs are a most rugged storage medium. Many discs that are heavily scratched, bent, or left in the sun will still play in some DVD players though we don't recommend anyone allow their DVD discs to be subject to such abuse. Furthermore DVD players aren't capable of "eating" up tape and destroying a video like VHS and Betamax players once did. The one other reason to consider transferring Betamax to DVD is so that these old home movies can be viewed more conveniently than ever before. The majority of homes all have at least one DVD player in them and anyone with a computer likely has one that came with a built in DVD player.

If you have questions about the Betamax to DVD transfer process please contact Best DVD Solutions for assistance. You may also visit their website to view a complete list of all the digital solutions they provide.

Blu Ray however allows video to be upscaled to high definition formats which can dramatically increase picture and audio quality.

Blu Ray discs also offer owners much more storage space than DVD's do. That means more of your home movies can be stored on one disc as opposed to several or many. Blu Ray discs are capable of storing 25 Gigabytes of information on a single layer disc while dual layer disc allow for twice that amount. Individuals looking to transfer slides to Blu Ray or photographs to Blu Ray will find that they will have the option to have all of their images placed on one disc making them easy to find and store. VHS to Blu Ray transfers are also appealing to many because Blu Ray discs are even more durable than DVD's.

VHS To Blu Ray Transfers: The High Definition Experience

It may seem as though the public's mass acceptance and adoption of the DVD format was not to long ago but in reality the truth is that mass market adoption occurred just over 10 years ago. This means that DVD's have been the dominant form of both commercial and home video for over a decade already. DVD's to this day remain a hot item however there's a new player on the market that many feel won't merely coexist with DVD but instead will render the aging format obsolete. This format is of course Sony's Blu Ray disc format. Blu Ray players offer owners of HDTV's a chance to watch movies in full 1080p resolution, the highest resolution currently available. The format also provides rich, crisp, digital surround sound. Even DVD's play and look incredible when played on Blu Ray players.

By now it's likely you've heard of VHS to DVD transfers. A process by which old VHS movies are cleaned up, digitized and placed on DVD's for convenient viewing and safe storage. Well with the advent of Blu Ray many people have sought to have a VHS to Blu Ray transfer performed on their old movies. While many do so many people also ask why transfer VHS to Blu Ray when they could have it transferred to DVD just as easily and at a friendlier price. The truth is a VHS to Blu Ray transfer does indeed offer many of the same things and carry many of the same benefits that a VHS to DVD transfer does however there are advantages to choosing Blu Ray.

Perhaps the biggest advantage that a VHS to Blu Ray transfer holds over VHS to DVD transfer is the fact that all Blu Ray is a high definition format. Although your old VHS movies might be of extremely low quality, a VHS to Blu Ray transfer can not only clean up the picture and sound of the movie, HDTV's and Blu Ray players make almost any movie played through them look and sound fantastic, far better than DVD. Furthermore Blu Ray video and audio are uncompressed which means you're hearing and seeing everything there is to be seen and heard.

The second big advantage that a VHS to Blu Ray transfer has over a VHS to DVD transfer is the medium or disks themselves. While Blu Ray discs are the same size as and look almost identical to DVD's, they are far more durable even to things like scratches, careless children, accidents, etc. While a VHS to DVD transfer provides great protection for your old home movies, a VHS to Blu Ray transfer means that your home movies will be stored on the most durable storage medium currently available to consumers.

If you own a Blu Ray player and are considering having your VHS movies transferred to a more modern and stable medium your best bet is going to be a VHS to Blu Ray transfer.

VHS To DVD Transfers As As Emotional As They Are Technical

We've talked quite a bit about just how popular VHS to DVD transfers are these days but this time we'd like to showcase a testimonial received by Best DVD Solutions. This testimonial really shows how the VHS to DVD transfer process isn't just a technical one it's also a sentimental and sometimes emotional one for those who hand their old home movies over to Best DVD Solutions. The VHS to DVD transfer testimonial is as follows:

Hey Dianna,

I just wanted to provide you some feedback about my experience with your company. From the minute I looked up your website until my wife opened up her Christmas present, every aspect of my experience was phenomenal. When I first came to visit you for the first time, I was a bit unsure about handing over my family's home movies, but you took the time to go over every video to make sure I really wanted to put it on DVD. This helped me tremendously with budgetary decisions, but also showed me that every tape that we owned was precious no matter what the content, and you provided me with the security of knowing that you would take care of these videos as if they were your very own. By the time I left that first meeting, I knew that our family movies were in good hands. You provided a very reasonable cost estimate and delivered the product well before my anticipated time of completion. Your customer service was very warm and inviting and was just a great overall experience. When my wife opened her Christmas gift this year, her tears told the whole story. In fact, our whole family sat and watched home movies all day instead of playing with our new Christmas presents. My wife is already talking about bringing in the rest of the tapes as well as her mom's stuff. Thanks again for all your work, it was greatly appreciated and we look forward to working with you again.

Blessings to you and your family,
Scott Crawford

Many people opt for a VHS to DVD transfer for the same reasons Scott did. The ability to watch old home movies whenever the mood strikes is something people really cherish.

Transferring 8mm To DVD With Best DVD Solutions

When people think of 8mm film most often two things come to mind. The first being evenings and nights spent in the living room with family watching videos often with no sound. The second thing that often comes to mind is the fact that 8mm film was the predecessor to VHS in terms of what people used for home video. While these two memories are quite different from each other they both evoke thoughts of inferior and extremely outdated technology in terms of ease of use as well as quality.

Like owners of VHS Cassettes and VCR's, owners of 8mm films must often to go great lengths just to watch the videos they have accumulated or stored over the years, and more often than not, decades. Unlike VHS owners however those wishing to watch movies on 8mm film must either create a dark room which can be an arduous task in of itself or must wait until the sun has set before they can view any movie. Additionally there are numerous other inconveniences that these people must endure. If locating the projector and digging through boxes to find films as well as other equipment isn't enough of a deterrent, those watching the movies will more often than not sit through a movie whose quality, both picture and sound wise, is poor and has degrades sharply over time.

With so many issues revolving around the viewing of 8mm movies it's not difficult to ascertain why transferring 8mm film to DVD has become so popular. Not only does an 8mm film to DVD transfer give owners the freedom to watch their movies virtually anytime they like but it also helps preserve the video as DVD's are not subject to the same types of degradation that film is. Additionally an 8mm film to DVD transfer allows for the touching up of both the video and audio of these movies. While the source material always determines just how much touching up can be done, even the smallest amount will delight owners watching the movies on their DVD players and on their modern television sets. Many 8mm movies have spots on the film or in the audio that aren't up to snuff. An 8mm film to DVD transfer can help correct such problems and make watching these old movies more enjoyable and easier to look at.

VHS To DVD Transfers With Best DVD Solutions

In some cases you might even have trouble locating your old VCR as it's been packed away for the better part of a decade.

As DVD has become the dominant form of home video and with computer technology allowing for the easy creation of home videos and DVD burning, VHS has quickly become antiquated.

VHS To DVD Transfer: The Best DVD Solutions Difference

VHS was the dominate video format in both the home and professional markets for the better part of two decades. As a result of it's lengthy reign atop the video world many people took advantage of the ever increasingly affordable technology and recorded many videos of the home and professional nature. As the late 90's began so did a format war. Once DVD was introduced to the mass market in 1998 VHS was put on notice. The switch from VHS to DVD was one that many consumers made very quickly over the 1999 holiday season and the DVD format became the new king of video.

Such strong consumer support ultimately doomed VHS to obsolescence an as a result VHS players and movies became scarce by the early years of the new millennium. This put many former VHS users in a conundrum however as they still possessed many of the cassettes they used to create home movies of memorable and/or important events. If the desire to view these movies took hold persons would need to locate and unpack their old VCR. Additionally once/if found, these same persons would find themselves trying to find open slots on their television sets. If such slots where accessible and/or available VHS movies could be viewed but their poor quality would often be exposed by more modern televisions and stereo equipment leaving VHS owners disappointed.

Best DVD Solutions the leader in VHS to DVD transfers offers solutions to those who might still be holding onto important VHS cassettes. These services where designed so that old home videos and even videos of a professional nature can be preserved for a lifetime on an extremely durable storage medium. Additionally allowing Best DVD Solutions to handle your VHS to DVD conversion negates the need to find old , bulky and cumbersome VCR's.

What are the benefits of a Best DVD Solutions VHS to DVD transfer?

Watch Virtually Anywhere: Transferring VHS to DVD means that you can conveniently view your old movies whenever the mood strikes. No more digging through boxes trying to locate a VCR.

Sound quality can be brought up to respectable levels and balanced throughout the entire movie while image touch up's will make colors more vibrant and defined.

Dependable Storage Medium: VHS cassettes are susceptible to moisture, heat, warping, and smashing. Over time the tape itself can become damaged which degrades movie quality and in worse case scenarios makes movies unplayable.

  • Transfer Slides to DVD – 35mm slides have remained a popular form of pictured media for both businesses and private use however the quality of slides tends to degrade sharply with time and the media is less than durable. 35mm slides to DVD transfers have become popular amongst people who have accumulated a large amount of slides over the years and either wish to preserve their memories on a more durable medium or no longer wish to invest in the equipment necessary to view slides.
  • Transfer 8mm Film to DVD – 8mm films where once the most affordable and popular way to record home movies. As the decades passed however mediums like VHS and Super Hi 8 video replaced 8mm film and those movies where, for the most part, packed away by their owners and viewed only on special occasion. As most owners of 8mm films will tell you the films themselves tend to stay in storage for years upon years at a time and as a result the quality of picture and sometimes sound is degraded or ruined completely. Film has a tendency to rot easily too if not protected properly and so 8mm to DVD transfers have become extremely popular. Save your old home movies by having them transferred!
  • 35mm to DVD - 35mm slides are know by most people to be the preferred method of viewing vacation and event photographs. As the format is quite old and newer media has become popular, the equipment required to view this type of media has become scare and expensive. Therefore many owners of 35mm slides have begun transferring their 35mm slides to DVD. This gives owners peace of mind in both knowing their images are protected and that they may view them from any computer or DVD player.
  • High Quality Photo Scanning – Some photographs are special and some need to be readied for the Internet, presentations, or printing. While there are commercial scanners available that do a good job at capturing images to a hard drive, Best DVD Solutions utilizes professional grade scanners that will copy your pictures in an unprecedented quality.
  • DVD Duplication Orange County – Best DVD Solutions also offers DVD duplication services so that you'll have back up's of important DVD's. As durable as DVD's are they are not indestructible and as such it's always wise to have a back up handy so that your media is not lost.
  • CD Duplication Orange County - CD duplication services are available for those people who have sensitive and important media already on disc. As with DVD's, CD's can break, warp, and become unplayable if left in the heat and/or sunlight. For these reasons alone it's important to have backup's made.
  • Transfer VHS to DVDVHS to DVD transfers are unbelievably popular these days. While most people own many VHS cassettes few of those people have a VHS player hooked up to their TV's as they packed them away after the release of the DVD. Secondly the quality of VHS, especially that of older tapes can be poor. During a VHS to DVD transfer both picture and sound are touched up as much as the source material will allow, and the video is placed on a form of media that can be played in any location that has a DVD player.
