VHS tape to Digital Media File Format

Convert VHS tape to commonly used digital media formats playable on computers, tablets, smartphones and other digital media players. 

Note: We have a VHS-C adapter available that can help you convert VHS-C and Super VHS-C camcorder cassettes to DVD. Ask at our Circulation Desk to borrow it for in-library use.

File sizes can be quite large and you may not be able to save a single large file (4GB or more) to your USB drive. This is due to limitations of the file system used by most USB drives (called FAT32) . We recommend using USB drives formatted to use the NTFS or exFAT file system. Which file system is right for you depends on a number of factors .

Software that provides basic image and video editing is provided on the Digitization Station.
