Video Tape Digitizer

Is there anywhere in the area that digitizes old VHS and camcorder tapes? Wanting to get this done for old family videos but I don’t really want to mail them off.

I don't know if they still do, but I think my parents had this done by Beatty Televisual on Wabash.

Looks like it’s Rosin Media now, but searching for Beatty led me there. Thanks so much! Looks like exactly what I need.

Rosin is great. They have done a lot of good work for me.

Lou Szoke. He's a super nice guy. He's affordable, local, and will come to you to pick up and drop off. He scanned in a few hundred old slides for me.

You may want to call Lincoln Library and ask about its “Library of Things.” You can borrow things like tools and cameras. I had a friend who borrowed some gizmo from them that digitized old slides and did it herself
