Customer Reviews of YesVideo Videotape to DVD Conversion Kit (2302000020)
NOT RECOMMENDED. BEWARE. The CD product we received was very poor quality and had very sloppy editing; it appeared no one checked the final product. Many sections were eliminated that we wanted. But the worst part, is that the original tape no longer plays. This was the only copy of our wedding we had. I would recommend NOT using this service.
Will recommend to my mother
I wanted to find a service that was easy enough for my parents to use, and high enough quality that it would be worth the price and hassle. The options I found were a number of software products for the PC (too complex) and a few mail-in services like YesVideo that parse the videos into equally-timed chapters, which I thought would be annoying to view and search.
So I opted for YesVideo and ran a test. The test consisted of (holding my breath and) sending all 29 family videotapes we've recorded over the years of our kids growing up, and waiting to see what was returned. I did this without the knowledge of my spouse -- gambling with my life.
I was impressed and extremely satisfied with the result. The service was much faster than I anticipated (only a couple of days), and the quality was terrific. Video and audio both. The intelligent parsing of the footage is much appreciated -- we can skip over the embarrassing stuff (like me in a swim suit) and not have to search for our son's birthday or our daughter's first steps. The DVD case also has screenshots on the front that make searching a real cinch -- this is a big deal when looking through 29 volumes of video for the right moment in time.
On top of all this we got a photo CD with a bunch of digital photo-quality still images taken from the actual video footage. Not sure how they decide which ones to take, but it turned out a bit like a roll of film -- some good ones, some bad ones, and one or two that you want to put on your wall. Of course, they also returned the original videotapes, but I'm guessing the DVDs will outlast the originals anyway.
In the end, I surprised my spouse with the achievement of transferring all of our memories to DVD, and she was very pleased. (And I got doubles for my parents, which I'm saving for a Christmas present.) The test was a smashing success, and I'm going to recommend the service to everyone. It's a great service, and definitely worth the price. I don't know of any other reliable way to convert taped memories to DVD with such ease & efficiency. I give it 5 stars.
Sloppy work and not worth the hassle
I have used this service about half a dozen times. Some tape conversions have been fine but others have been performed poorly. My most recent experience: Part of my two hour tape was not transferred. I had to return the tape to have the conversion redone and I enclosed a detailed letter explaining that only part of the tape was transferred to the DVD. The second transfer came back, with even less of the tape converted and misspellings in the custom description I supplied to be printed on the DVD and box. I assumed that an order being reprocessed would have received at least a little extra attention, not less.
I don't want to waste any more time having the conversion attempted for a third time and I would be extrememly nervous now about entrusting an irreplaceable tape to this company.
