What Our Customers Say

Frequently Asked Questions About Video Conversion

How much does it cost to convert VHS tapes to digital?

Our standard VHS and VHS-C conversion price is £15 per tape. We also offer discounted PAK bundles for larger or mixed-media collections, with prices reducing to as little as £8 per media item with our PAK 50 package.

What video tape formats can you convert to digital?

We convert a wide range of old video formats including VHS, VHS-C, MiniDV, Video8, Hi8 and Digital8. We can also digitise Standard 8 and Super 8 cine film, audio cassettes, DVDs and other media. If you're unsure what type of tape or media you have, simply send us a photo on WhatsApp.

What will I receive after my tapes are converted?

Your recordings are converted into modern digital files that can be watched, stored, copied and shared much more easily. We can supply your converted recordings on USB or via cloud download, with other options available where appropriate.

Can I post my VHS tapes to you?

Yes. Videoconversionguru accepts tapes and other media from customers throughout the UK. Contact us first for a quote and we'll explain how to send your recordings to us securely.

Can I drop my tapes off if I live near Guildford?

Yes. We're based in the Guildford area of Surrey, and local drop-off or collection can be arranged. We serve customers in Guildford, Godalming, Woking, Farnham, Aldershot and surrounding areas.

How long does video conversion take?

Turnaround depends on the number and type of tapes or media being converted. We'll give you an indication of turnaround time when we quote and keep you updated on progress throughout the conversion.

Will I get my original tapes back?

Yes. Your original tapes and other media are returned to you after conversion.

Can you convert a large collection of old tapes?

Absolutely. We handle large and mixed-media collections and offer special bulk pricing. Our PAK 20 converts 20 eligible media items for £200, while our PAK 50 converts 50 eligible media items for £400. Packages can include a mixture of supported formats, subject to the individual package conditions.

Can you edit my old home videos as well as convert them?

Yes. Where required, we can use professional video editing software to remove unwanted footage and prepare your recordings for modern digital playback. Tell us what you'd like when requesting your quote.

Can you improve the quality of old VHS or camcorder recordings?

We aim to get the best practical result from your original recording, but the final quality will depend on the condition and quality of the original tape. If your recording has particular problems, let us know when requesting your quote.

Why should I convert old VHS and camcorder tapes now?

Old video tapes don't last forever. Age, storage conditions and repeated playback can affect analogue recordings over time, while working VHS players and older camcorder equipment are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Converting important recordings to digital makes your memories much easier to preserve, watch, copy and share.

I don't know what's on my tapes — can you still convert them?

Yes. Many customers come to us with boxes of tapes they haven't watched for years and no longer have the equipment needed to play them. Send us a photo of what you have via WhatsApp and we'll help identify the formats and recommend the most suitable conversion option.

What kinds of recordings do people have converted?

Everything from weddings and children's first steps to birthdays, Christmases, holidays, school plays and family members who are no longer with us. For many customers, the real value of video conversion isn't the tape itself — it's being able to see and hear those memories again.

About Videoconversionguru

Videoconversionguru is the specialist video and media conversion service developed from Thetechnologyguru.co.uk, where we've been helping customers preserve and rediscover their recordings for more than five years. We created Videoconversionguru as our dedicated video and media conversion service — a name that does exactly what it says on the tin!

From wedding videos and childhood memories to family holidays, birthdays and relatives we may no longer be able to see or hear, old tapes often contain moments that simply cannot be replaced.

Based in the Guildford area of Surrey, we provide a personal video conversion service for customers locally and throughout the UK. We convert VHS, VHS-C, MiniDV, Video8, Hi8, Digital8, cine film, audio cassettes and other media into modern digital formats.

Unlike a faceless processing service, you'll deal directly with us. We'll help identify your media, provide clear pricing, keep you updated while your recordings are being converted and return your original media together with your digital copies.

Videoconversionguru builds on the video conversion service previously provided through Thetechnologyguru.co.uk, where we've already helped customers rediscover everything from wedding videos to collections containing dozens of old tapes.

Our aim is simple: preserve your memories and make them easy to enjoy again.
