I have an awful lot of VHS/Betamax family videos and reels from my late father.
We are moving house and I would like to convert this to DVD/CD. Can anyone recommend a company that can do this and how outrageously expensive it's likely to be?!

Thanks for any advice.

Why not buy a combined VCR player/DVD recorder and do the VHS films yourself.

Then sell the machine afterwards and get back what you can.

No idea about Betamax I'm afraid.

Thanks for advice but the sheer quantity of the films and videos would take me forever! They are also in Northern Ireland I live in England....

Can't recommend them as I haven't used them, but it looks like it costs from £5/hour
