How much does it cost to digitize VHS with MEDIAFIX?
MEDIAFIX digitizes your VHS cassettes starting at €6.99 per cassette. With our best price guarantee we promise that you’ll always get the lowest price for your desired resolution and quantity.
How can I deliver my VHS?
You can send your VHS cassettes by post or drop them by personally in our head office in Cologne or even in one of our 91 Access points.
In which resolution will my VHS be digitised?
We convert your VHS tapes in our budget and standard quality in the original PAL resolution in which they were recorded.
In our premium quality, we offer VHS digitization in Full HD resolution.
Can my recordings be improved afterwards?
Yes, with our post-processing service we can reduce noise and artifacts and improve colors and contrast.
Can purchased video cassettes also be converted?
No, that’s not possible due to copyright reasons — unless if you have permission in writing from the author/creator.
Can you digitise only selected sections of my VHS?
Yes, we just need the exact start and end time stamps.
Can VHS with copy protection be converted?
Yes, video cassettes with copy protection can be converted to MP4 files, but not to DVD.
Can longplay cassettes be converted?
Yes, we charge depending on the video duration in real time.
What's the difference between MP4 files and DVD?
If you transfer your VHS to DVD, you can easily play them in a DVD player. MP4 files enable you to edit, copy and share your videos afterwards.
How much disk space is required for converting my video cassettes?
A 90-minute cassette requires about 6.5 GB of disk space. S-VHS or Betamax cassettes require about double that.
Why is saving as MP4 files so expensive?
Converting VHS to MP4 files and performing subsequent quality control takes much longer than converting to DVD, resulting in higher costs.
Why can S-VHS cassettes only be converted to MP4 files?
S-VHS is already a digital format, so it only can be converted to MP4.
How can I edit the videos by myself afterwards?
There are many free programs you can use to do this. You just need the MP4 files.
