Old VHS tapes and home videos capture moments that can never be recreated, first birthdays, holidays, graduations, and everyday memories that tell your family’s story.

Archive Lane digitizes personal, home-recorded video formats to help protect these recordings from tape degradation and equipment loss. In some cases, clients later choose to incorporate digitized clips into Digital Slideshows.

Especially helpful for:

  • Families with VHS, MiniDV, or other aging home video tapes

  • Individuals without access to working playback equipment

  • Those preserving milestone events like weddings, birthdays, and graduations

  • Anyone wanting to protect recordings from tape deterioration

Bring your home videos back to life.

  • Photo and video digitization is priced by item, allowing you to mix formats while keeping pricing clear and predictable.

    What counts as an item:

    • 1 video tape = 1 item

    • 1 batch of up to 50 photos = 1 item

    Packages are designed to be flexible, so you can combine photo batches and video tapes within the same order.


  • We digitize a wide range of consumer home video formats, including:

    • VHS

    • VHS-C

    • MiniDV

    • Hi8 / Digital8

    • Other common home video formats (reviewed upon request)

    If you’re unsure what format you have, we’re happy to help identify it before you get started.

  • What This Service Is

    • Designed for preserving personal, home-recorded footage

    • Ideal for converting aging tapes into modern digital formats

    • Focused on protecting irreplaceable recordings from tape degradation

    • Intended for family viewing, sharing, and long-term preservation

    What This Service Isn’t

    • Intended for commercial, broadcast, or copyrighted recordings

    • A media editing or content alteration service

    • A replacement for original ownership or copyright rights

    If a tape contains both personal recordings and copyrighted material, only the personal portions may be digitized.

  • We digitize home-recorded and personal video content.

    We are unable to digitize copyrighted television programs, movies, or commercially produced media unless the client owns the copyright or has explicit permission.

    Clients are responsible for confirming they have the right to reproduce submitted materials.

Preserving your memories should feel simple.

That’s why our photo and video digitization services are offered as flexible, mix-and-match packages.

If your project doesn’t fit neatly into a package, we’re happy to help.
