I have been collecting (and repairing) old VCR's since the beginning of the 80-ties. This enrire collection enables me to transfer almost all old videoformats
on to DVD, DV or Betacam SP. To ensure the best possible picture quality the videosignals pass a professional timebase corrector that responds well to old video signals.
The video de-noiseing unit makes sure that a certain amount of visible picture noise will be removed. Not to much however or otherwise you will notice that the picture has digitally been modified.
Your pictures are also monitored constantly on a waveform monitor to make sure the white and black levels are according to the video standard. In most cases adjustment is needed,
especially with early video systems like the AKAI VT and Sony AC/CV series..
The recorders used for copying are always modified both mechanically and electronically to optimize the transfer for best picture quality and tape run.
Here you'll find an overview of the standards I have collected over the years. Have a look at our storage facility, this is only one part.
If you are not sure your video format is listed please contact me on + 31 6 54986866 (mobile) or by e-mail martijn@videoinfo.nl
