Converting Beta tapes to DVD?

Converting Beta tapes to DVD?

Does anyone know the best way to convert old beta home movies to cd's I
have many home movies from the early 80"s that are in good shape but
the beta recorder is shot! Its really hard to find a betamax these
days. Just wondering if walmart or a dept. store converts these old
tapes. Thanks for any imput.

There is a specialservice that does it. There are small studios

Here's a list of U.K.

websites that offer the service you're looking for. I haven't checked them personally but hopefully they'll point you in the right direction to find similar sites in the U.S.

Go digital!

Who wants to mess around with dvds? You should store this on a hard-drive so you can edit and remix!

Jeck your local listings

Keep asking locally and check phone directories under Video? as many cities will have someone or a company who can transfer. We have one here we have hired to change old super 8 and camcorder VHS tapes to DVD's, and I know they will do the same with other formats like reel to reel and probably Beta.
