Video Tape Transfer Service (VHS, Hi8, Video 8, 8mm, VHS-C, MiniDV) to Digital MP4

Very satisfied with this service! It exceeded my expectations!I had a very old video tape—over 30 years old—and thought I would never get to see those memories again. But Southern Scan did an exceptional job!It only took 2 days to receive the mailing box, and once I dropped off my package at USPS, it was delivered in 5 days. As soon as the package arrived, Southern Scan emailed me a Dropbox link to view the digitized video.I didn’t expect a miracle, considering the quality of the original recording, but what I received was an accurate and impressive representation—for a very reasonable price.I strongly recommend this service to anyone with old tapes—they are amazing!A million thanks to the team for bringing my memories back to life!

Amazing service! Fast and great quality!I've found a bunch of old tapes I thought were lost. Checked local services to digitize it, but their offers were about $30 per tape. Kind of reasonable, but just a couple of them are working with PAL tapes, and they charge extra for PAL.I sent tapes to SouthernScan and got them digitized pretty fast with great quality!FYI, steps: I received an empty box with a mailing label. Fill the form and put it with tapes into the box. It is prepaid for 1lb of media. I put 8 tapes. After they receive tapes, I got an email with links to Dropbox and a payment form to input the credit card so they can charge it.

This was a great company to work with. I sent them 4 old vhs-c tapes to convert to an mp4. The service was fast and done well. I also sent them a flash drive which they will return to me along with my tapes (per my request for a small fee). I will absolutely use them again to transfer more tapes. I highly recommend. Price is very affordable to bring old memories back to life.

Perfect for me. Only had 1 1983 VHS tape. Fast and excellent service.

This is great for converting old media. I recently did 3 old tapes that were filmed on 2 different formats. An empty USPS box and label get delivered to your house. You can send multiple items in for conversion. The group was fast, simple, and a great price point. Files are delivered via drop box.

I found 8 Hi8/8mm video tapes from the mid 1990's - early 2000's in my house. I no longer have the video camera and therefore, had no way of checking to make sure I had all my family videos digitized from that era. So I thought, better to be safe than sorry...I started searching for a way to digitize these 8 tapes just to make sure. Here's what I found by using this service:- Was it seamless? Seamless enough. There were a few bumps in the road, but because their customer service and quick replies were excellent, there was no problem at all.- When you order, you will receive a small box with a return label inside it. I wanted to put all 8 tapes into one box (and get charged later for 7 of them because buying the box technically means you bought the right to get 1 tape digitized), but the return label is only good for up to 1 lb. My box with 8 tapes weighted between 1-2lbs. My solution: I bought 2 boxes and sent 4 in each. I do wish this information was available on the amazon listing.- I am not enamored of their payment method. They send a link for you to give them your credit card number for anything above and beyond the amazon listing that they do. I received emails later on that they charged me for the additional tapes to be digitized and for the return shipping (which I opted in for). I would rather be sent a bill and pay for it rather than a seeming carte blanche ability for them to charge anything. However, they were honest and everything worked out fine.- I found the cost to perform this service to be outstanding. I did comparison shop and almost didn't digitize my 8 tapes because I found the competitors' prices to be way too high. For the price they charge here, I moved forward.- Speed of service was also excellent. I believe I had everything done within 2 weeks (including having the tapes returned to me).- Quality of product - excellent. If you are looking for them to give you crystal clear renditions for tapes from 20-30 years ago, you are in the wrong place. I wanted a simple digitization and that's what I got.I would definitely use this service again.
