A standard DVD-5 holds up to two hours of content. This is no problem for VHS tapes that were recorded in standard mode. However, VHS tapes can hold up to four, six or even eight hours of video if they were recorded in LP or EP/ELP mode. If you believe your VHS tape might hold more than 2 hours of content, we can span it over multiple discs with your authorization that this will incur additional charges. Your DVD will not lose quality when transferred from VHS but please note that the final quality will depend on the condition of your original tape. If your original is in good condition you will get a good quality DVD, if however your tape has been exposed to light, excess heat, or over played in dirty VCRs then the quality will be just like the original warts and all.

*Please note that Copy Protected tapes using Macrovision can only be duplicated for personal use and require additional charges. If you’re not sure if your tape is copy protected, we will notify you prior to conversion.

**Also note that the above pricing is for a standard North American Region NTSC VHS to DVD format. If your VHS is in European PAL format or you need it converted to either PAL DVD or NTSC DVD format please call us for pricing.
