Convert Betacam tape to DVD

Thankfully, Betacam tapes are still holding up adequately for high quality transfers, whether you have BetaSP, BetaSX, DigiBeta or any other related format. While some Betacam transfers are family home videos, most of what we see comes from institutions with important historical or broadcast footage. For that reason, we offer advanced digitizing services for many of our Betacam clients, including tape incubation, repairs, time based correction and ProResHQ output. Our 80+ person team can do whatever you need, and we look forward to hearing from you to scope a digitizing project that best meets your technical and budgetary needs.

ERIC, JENNIFER, & WINSTON

Our ultimate goal is to make your best memories EverPresent in your life. Digitizing degrading photos and home movies is a necessary first step. Once your memories are safely digital, a world of searchable family archives and storytelling keepsakes are suddenly possible! We look forward to working with you.

Why Families & Institutions Nationwide Choose EverPresent

Value: The size of our company allows us to provide more for less. Our digitizing is higher quality and better organized – and we offer an array of advanced services you won’t find anywhere else. Our pricing is transparent and always includes 60 days of free digital downloads and sharing.
Convenience: Home and office pickups, over 50 local stores and easy shipping options. And unlike other companies, we embrace tedious work like transcribing written labels into your USB filenames and DVD labels so you don’t have to.
Trust: Over 50 million memories preserved, 30+ years experience, 80+ expert technicians. Alarmed, sprinklered, camera-monitored, US-based, high-tech lab. Advanced barcode tracking and email technology to keep you updated.
Respect: No upfront payments and no rushed decisions. Deciding whether to proceed with broken tapes, or upgrade to ProResHQ archival files or restorative tape incubation can have a real budget impact. That’s why we include a free consultation after we’ve reviewed your materials to assure you pick the right options at the right price to suit your needs.

Standard Betacam pricing options

EverPresent’s unique approach to pricing:

Our team will walk you through the technical options in advance before you commit to anything. It’s free to get your materials to us for an estimate and there’s no upfront payment.
We only charge for the work we do, not for a preset numbers of items. We don’t promote flashy discounts or expiring coupons. We offer volume discounts because it’s fair, and we apply them automatically.
We offer the widest range of options and capabilities to assure your project gets what it needs, but out of respect for your budget, never more than it needs. In our business, one size rarely fits all (or fits in a box).

Ultimately, what we care about is helping families do this important project ONCE – and do it right the first time.

You’re in good hands! Our team has decades of experience turning millions of photos and videos into beautiful digital memories that you can share with others.

betacam-and-betamax-to-dvd

Both formats go through multiple levels of quality control before coming back to you. Not to mention, it’s even harder to find a broadcast level Betacam VTR than it is to find a consumer VCR (a decent player averages over $800 to purchase), so unless you have a huge collection this is a difficult one to try at home! And why wait?
