VHS to Digital in London
VHS tapes deteriorate with age, often producing fuzzy playback. Tapes To Digital converts them on professional converters at its Brixton and Southall drop-offs into an MP4, with the archival master on request. From £13 a tape: £15 for 1–4 tapes, down to £13 for 31 or more.

Hi8 to Digital in London
Hi8 offered sharper pictures than Video8, but the tapes are just as fragile. Tapes To Digital transfers Hi8 on professional converters, preserving picture and sound detail while correcting problems such as shaky playback and muffled audio.

Digital8 to Digital in London
Digital8 brought digital recording to the 8mm tape family, but these cassettes often cause compatibility problems on ageing camcorders. Tapes To Digital transfers Digital8 on professional converters at the same per-tape price as VHS.

Yes. You don't need a working video recorder or any equipment. Drop your tapes at Brixton or Southall, or post them in, and you get your videos back as files that play on your TV, computer or phone. See our VHS to digital service.
