What types of media can you digitize?

We handle everything – VHS tapes, camcorder tapes (like Hi8 and MiniDV), Betamax, 8-16mm film reels, photos, slides, negatives, audio cassettes, vinyl records, and DVDs. If you have something unusual, just bring it in!

How long does the process take?

It really depends on the project! For larger collections of tapes or photos, it’s typically 3-4 weeks because we take the time to do it right. However, smaller projects can often be completed much faster, sometimes even within 24 hours. When you bring your items to our store, we’ll give you a clear and accurate timeline.

What can I do with the digital files once I get them?

Anything you want! The digital files we provide are perfect for sharing on social media, creating photo books, or editing into new home movies. If you’re new to digital files, don’t worry! We’ll be happy to walk you through the basics and suggest easy-to-use software.

Can you help with damaged or broken tapes?

Yes! We are experts at tape repair. A snapped cassette tape or one with mold doesn’t mean your memories are lost. In most cases, we can carefully repair the tape to a condition where we can safely digitize it for you.

I have a huge collection. Do you offer any deals for large orders?

We do! We understand that many of our neighbors have large collections of photos or video tapes. We offer special pricing for bulk photo scanning and can create a custom quote for large video or audio collections. Just ask us when you stop by!

Film Transfer

If you have old film reels, you’re holding onto moments that haven’t been seen in years. We carefully transfer each reel so you can watch and share them again without worrying about damage or fading.

Not sure what kind of film you have? Just bring it in. We’ll take a look together, explain everything clearly, and help you move forward with confidence.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've used HB Media Solutions for many years to transfer old VHS and others tapes to DVD and USB formats. Harold has always done a great job and gotten the work out quickly and reasonably priced. I highly recommend HB Media Solutions for digital transfer of older media formats.

Got exactly what I came here for: message from my grandmother from years ago that had been lost on a mini DV tape where I did not have a camera or a mini DV player to play it back. Harold helped me

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Harold was able to transfer the audio from 2 40-year-old cassette tapes onto a USB. One of the tapes had even been damaged by a cassette player, and he was able to splice it back together. The recordings were of my dad singing. He passed away over 30 years ago. My siblings and I are incredibly grateful to hear his voice again. Thank you, Harold! We would wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found HB Media Solutions through a google search. I wanted them to digitize my Father's travel slides. Harold and John were very responsive and explained the process and my options in detail. Throughout the process they kept me informed of their progress and completed the project quickly. The quality of the finished product was excellent considering the slides were almost 50 years old. My 96 year old Father will be amazed that so many boxes of slides can all fit on one thumb drive to be shared for generations to come! Thanks Harold and John.
