Do you have old family videos of important events like birthdays, vacations, etc? If so and you are looking to preserve those memories you may want to turn those old tapes into DVD’s. Turning old tapes into DVD’s is simple for YesVideo because they are the pros when it comes to this.
About a year ago I started converting our old Hi-8 tapes into digital form so that I could save them on my computer and makes DVD’s of them for us to watch. I did about 4-5 tapes and the conversion process was so time consuming and so labor intensive. I wish I would have known about YesVideo back then so that I could have had them do the conversion for me and it would have saved me a lot of time and aggravation.
YesVideo not only converts your old tapes but also does film transfer, digital video transfer and image scanning. Now that I converted our tapes to DVD I need to start working on getting our non digital photos converted into digital form.
YesVideo is pretty simple to use because all you have to do is go to yesvideo.com, select how many of what type of media you are looking to have converted, select if you want it transferred right to DVD or online first then you can order DVD’s later, send your media to them for conversion and just sit back and wait for the converted product to be returned to you.
I recently converted my father in law’s youth football championship tape from 15 years ago to a DVD so he could relive those memories forever. The process was fast and the final product was awesome. They set the DVD up so he could watch either the whole DVD or just certain chapters. They even set the football DVD to music so he can watch the original footage or just play in set to music. Pretty cool feature and totally unexpected but that just shows that YesVideo goes the extra mile for their customers.
Another thing I forgot to mention is when your DVD is delivered to you so is your original tape just in case you want to save it for future use.
Overall YesVideo is an awesome service that I will be using in the near future because with three kids we have a ton of pictures on many different media forms that I would love converted to DVD so I know they are safe and secure forever.
If you are ready to get started on your own conversion project YesVideo is offering a 15% off code good for your entire transfer order just use TRANSFER15 at checkout. Please share this code with friends and family so they can get started on a project of their own.
