Frequently Asked Questions

If you want to convert old videotapes to digital on your own, then a digital converter machine is the best option.

There are different types, but most are targeted to tech-savvy users who already know how to use a Mac or Windows computer.

In addition, some may require adapters and you will still need a VCR, camcorder, or other playback device.

Most digital converters will only transfer at normal playback speed, so it will take approximately 2 hours to convert 1 tape (after learning how to use the software and equipment properly).
