Archived Backup Option - for an extra $5 per broadcast tape, we place a copy of the new disc image in Amazon AWS Glacier via LightJar (our own storage services product).  Price covers 1st year storage only.

We use professional tape decks with SDI, component, and IEEE 1394 connections tied into video ingestion software systems to provide high quality capture and transcoding to requested outputs and information tagging.  Our video tape conversion processes include cartridge inspection and repair, and tape cleaning.  We also offer related service products for video editing, custom menus and onscreen chapter titles.  Once digitized, the tapes' content is returned on one of 2 types of video discs:

• DVD - labeled per customer specification (typically we combine multiple tapes' content onto few discs as possible, if you prefer a separate disc for each converted video tape, please tell us this in the notes section when placing your order)
  

• Blu-ray Disc - labeled per customer specification (typically we combine multiple tapes' content onto few discs as possible, if you prefer a separate disc for each converted video tape, please tell us this in the notes section when placing your order)
