What our customers are saying about us

I recently had several mini and 8 MM camcorder cassettes transferred to dvds by Home Video Services. The service was excellent and I am super happy with the results. I highly recommend David and Home Video Services.

Hi David - Just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I watched the  mp4 that you provided me from an old VHS tape from 1992.

Being able to see and hear  my son at 5 and a half years old is amazing..it fills my heart.

He passed away suddenly in 1997 when he was almost 11 years old.

I am so glad that i found your business to convert my priceless tape to mp4 format  so I can view it once more.

You did an amazing job with the old tape and the picture quality is so amazing. I couldn't be happier. I also want to say thank you for the extremely quick turnover time-3 days! Your service price was very reasonable too!

You knew right away how special my tape was and how difficult it was to even let it out of my sight. You treated it with so much  care and i couldnt have asked for a better experience getting the tape converted to an mp4 format that i will treasure and view for years to come.

Thank you again for everything you have done. You have preserved my son's memory for me and the rest of his family. 

I can't say enough about the service, quality and kindness you have shown me.

I'll cherish it forever!

I am very happy with the service and care provided by David. My VHS tapes from 30+ years ago have all been transferred to USB, and are just a click away. I love that I can share with others. I am glad that David works locally rather than sending my cherished memories to another city to be processed.
Fast service. I have recommended Home Video Services to other people.

I recently got 7 old Sony camcorder tapes from the 90’s converted to video files on to a usb stick. I can’t say enough about the great service I received, the professionalism and the amazing quality work! I surprised my family with a copy of the files and they were blown away. I highly recommend the work of Home Video Services and will be using their services again!

I would highly recommend David and Home Video Services and already have! From the very first message, David was very responsive to my request and was able to complete the video transfers from 8mm tape onto a memory stick within a few days.which meant that I was able to confidently give them as a Christmas gift. The quality, service and turnaround were all excellent! So much so, that we plan on continuing to use his services to transfer more of our "lost tapes" lol a few at a time until all of our family memories are able to be viewed. Thank you so much for such a great Christmas gift that the whole family could enjoy!

We are very pleased with the video that you produced for us.  And the music is a nice touch also.  It will be great fun showing this to our kids and grandkids for sure.  Many thanks for all your efforts.

Have a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year.

We watched the home movies over Thanksgiving weekend. My family and I were extremely pleased with the results and quality of your work, and the soundtrack was an added bonus.

I had 23 precious family tapes of my children from 1980s - 8 MM format - and David transferred them accurately and efficiently within 10 days. I was very pleased with the quality and timeliness. I will be returning to have some more tapes digitized in next year before the old Bell and Howell from the 1960s fades away.

I am very pleased with the final product. Given the fact that you were working with some 8mm film that dated back to 1961. Seeing family, relatives and friends come to life again is a wonderful thing. Loved ones never really go away, the memories are always with us. But to have those memories come alive before our eyes adds to the moment. Thank you for restoring and preserving cherished memories that likely would have been lost. I would certainly recommend Home Video Services. Your professionalism, skill and customer relations are highly regarded.

I asked David to transfer my old home videos to DVD and USB drive which he did as promised within a one week time frame. I was pleasantly surprised to find the DVD's all nicely packaged up in a memories keepsake album. I am very satisfied with the quality of product and service that I received and would definitely recommend Home Video Services.

Hi have been very impressed by David. He seems very passionnate and he works fast and well. I hired his services to transfer videos from VHS to a hard drive and the quality is top notch. Thank you David. I will definitely come back in the future.

I had a bunch of my grandparents old family films lying around the house and wanted to get them transferred over to a DVD so my grandmother could see her late husband again. I had a bit of a deadline, needing to get them shipped back to BC by April 27th, and asked David to get them done in only 10 days, and he was able to deliver! My whole family is thrilled to see themselves younger again, and all the memories it brought back. The quality of the film was not the best, being shot by an armature, but they turned out and we were all satisfied with the results. 10/10 I would recommend Home Video Services to friends in the future.

I am very happy to have found your company here in Ottawa that does video transfers. You transferred my old Super 8 films and VHS tapes to DVD back in 2013 and I was thrilled with the results. I again used your service to have more home videos transferred to DVD in 2017. All of these old home movies were saved before the tapes became unusable. Thank you! I also appreciate the fact that the DVDs are contained in one case. I have been recommending you to everyone I know.

David did a great job and I am 100% satisfied with the end product. These home movies were over 40 years old and I am now able to edit them into short quality videos that can be played on my iPad. FANTASTIC !

Thank you Home Video Studio for making our 2016 Christmas family get together a truly memorable one… The smiles on the faces, the laughter and the few tears shed, as our extended family gathered around our HD TV to watch our 50-plus year old 8 mm home movies come to live once again. With our old 8 mm projector out of commission for many years, these wonderful memories were confined to boxes in our hallway closet. Converting our old movies to DVDs is something my wife and I talked about for many years, but like many things, we just never got around to it. Well, this year we did it and sure happy we did. Even though the image quality on our original movies was not great to start with, we were pleasantly surprised with the end result, even when viewed on our big screen TV. Being able to navigate through the various chapters of the DVD is real plus. Another plus is the music sound bed that you incorporated into the DVD. A really nice added touch. Thanks again and looking forward to dealing with you again… we have many small format VHS tapes that will need to be transferred to DVD. Jacques

Converting our old 8 mm films to digital was a great gift idea and your conversion service was excellent. My siblings and I doubted we could get much usable material from such scratchy originals, but the videos you gave us are pleasant to watch. The ones with color seem to have retained their true colors. You provided the files on time and on budget and you were pleasant to do business with. What follows are a few quotes to show the impact these videos have had on my family... “Outstanding. Thanks for a fabulous memento. Really appreciated and a nice surprise and an over the top piece of history to keep forever.” “That is the most AMAZING video! I had no idea it existed- ... Amazing to see our parents so young! ... --- - - was really in shape...and affectionate .... And all the families together. ... WOW! Thank you for doing this and sending it.” “This footage is WONDERFUL! Thank you so much for sending it to us. To see everyone at that age is remarkable. “ “- - - forwarded me the video you made and I just wanted to thank you so much for sending that to him. We all had a really crappy week and this just totally made him light right up! I know you spoke with him after he viewed it, but wasn't sure if he told you just how much this really made his day!” ”Thanks for that treat. That was a great gift. ... Amazing to see one’s parents alive when they were young. A first for me. ... thanks for doing this”
