How to order
Ordering is simple as we charge the same competitive price regardless of which type of tape you have or the duration of the tape.
Prepare your material
To get the best from our service we recommend the following;
- Film titles. We use the title of your tape as the File name. To facilitate this please make sure that all tapes etc are labelled with a legible film title.
|
|
- Mac or PC. Please inform us which computer type you have, as the video process differs significantly between Mac and PC
- Compressed or Uncompressed. For output as Uncompressed files a hard drive is required with approx 15GB free space per hour of footage (HD video is more)
