Are Your Precious Video Memories Fading Away?
You’re staring at boxes of old tapes—VHS, VHS-C, 8mm, MiniDV, Hi8—knowing they’re deteriorating every single day. Colors are fading, audio is getting fuzzy, and your kids have never seen those irreplaceable moments.
- • Colors are fading and image looks washed out
- • Some tapes won’t even play anymore
- • Your kids have never seen Grandpa’s birthday parties
Why typical options fail:
- Corporate mail-in services take months
- Big box stores risk losing one-of-a-kind tapes
- DIY capture gear looks terrible
Same‑week service in Austin: most video transfer projects completed in 1–3 days.
