Rather than give your\nloved one clich\u00e9 flowers, chocolates, or teddy bears, why not give them a truly\nunique gift this year?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>If your wedding was filmed on a VCR and your tape is tucked\naway somewhere, give your spouse the wonderful gift of your wedding day\nconverted onto a more accessible, more reliable format. VHS tapes are\nunreliable and not easy to watch these days, so a conversion onto a more\nup-to-date format is a fantastic way to preserve the best day of your life for\nfuture generations to enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.video2dvdtransfers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/VHS-mess.jpg\" alt=\"Broken VHS Tape\" class=\"wp-image-1314\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Reliable\nand Easily Accessible<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Video2DVD, we specialise in converting VHS tapes onto\nmore reliable formats such as DVDs and MP4 files. When you let your VHS tapes\nsit in the attic for years and years, they run the risk of deteriorating. Those\ntapes weren&#8217;t built to last forever, and the longer you leave them, the more\ndegraded they become, and they could even become wholly unplayable, and you&#8217;ll\nlose your footage for good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, DVDs and MP4 files don&#8217;t have the same\nproblems. DVDs are much more resilient and do not degrade naturally. MP4 files\ncan be copied with the click of a button and saved on multiple devices. Having\nlots of backup copies of your footage means that you won&#8217;t lose your wedding\nvideo for good should a device break or go missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DVDs and MP4 files can also be played on a range of devices.\nComputers, laptops and games consoles all have disc slots that can play DVDs,\nand MP4 files can also be played on these devices as well as smartphones. On\nthe other hand, VHS tapes are limited to just VHS players, which are becoming\nmore and more scarce these days after manufacturing of these devices officially\nended in 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you convert a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.video2dvdtransfers.co.uk\/vhs-to-mp4\">video to MP4<\/a> file or DVD, you get the benefits of a format that won&#8217;t let you down by degrading over time, and that can be easily played as many times as you like on a range of devices you likely already own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Add a\nMenu Feature<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>VHS tapes do not have any of the advantages and additional\nextras that DVDs and MP4 files have. A VHS tape is put in the player, and it\nplays from start to end, with no extra features \u2013 not to mention then having to\nbe rewound to watch again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a DVD copy, you can easily add a menu feature to your\nwedding video, making it more accessible and easier to navigate. You could\nsplit the footage into the important sections, such as the arrivals, the\nceremony, the speeches, the dances etc., which can then be easily navigated\nwith the use of a menu feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When sitting down to show loved ones your wedding video, you\ncan navigate to the best bits with ease, without having to fast forward or\nrewind. So when your grandchildren come to visit, and they want to know how\nterribly granddad danced at his wedding, you can use the main menu on your\nnewly converted DVD to show them granddad&#8217;s groovy dance moves straight away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.video2dvdtransfers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DVDs.jpg\" alt=\"DVDs\" class=\"wp-image-1488\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.video2dvdtransfers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DVDs.jpg 911w, https:\/\/www.video2dvdtransfers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DVDs-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.video2dvdtransfers.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/DVDs-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Make\nEdits<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes there will be parts of your wedding video that you\nmight wish to edit. Maybe the person holding the camera forgot it was on while\naiming the camera at the floor, and you want to cut that section out because it\nruins the flow. Or perhaps the audio quality isn&#8217;t great, and you want to add\nsubtitles so everyone will know what was said in the speeches in years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you do a DVD or MP4 conversion, you can make these\nedits yourself. Simply import the footage from the DVD \u2013 or use the raw MP4\nfile \u2013 and upload it into video editing software. You can then edit out\nsuperfluous bits of footage, add subtitles and much more. These edits could\nalso be a nice surprise for your loved one to show them on Valentine&#8217;s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Should you decide you don&#8217;t like the edits, you will still\nhave your original footage and won&#8217;t have lost anything.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Share\nwith Loved Ones<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the reasons we film weddings is not just for the\ncouple, but for their future children and grandchildren. Sharing wedding videos\nis a great way to keep family history alive, and get young people engaged in\ntheir family traditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a VHS tape, you severely limit who can view your\nwedding video, as most young people will not own a VHS player. But all of them\nwill have something that can play a DVD and\/or an MP4 file. By upgrading your\nvideo, you provide your spouse with a wonderful gift for Valentine&#8217;s Day and a\ngift for the entire family that can be shared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An MP4 file, for example, can be sent to virtually anywhere\nin the world with an internet connection, so you can even share it with family\nliving many miles away with minimal effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However you look at it, there are so many great reasons to convert your wedding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.video2dvdtransfers.co.uk\/vhs-to-dvd\">VHS to DVD<\/a> today. At Video2DVD, we have extensive experience converting videos including <a href=\"\/blog\/2021\/08\/09\/how-to-convert-camcorder-tapes-to-digital\/\">video to USB<\/a> and <a href=\"\/vhs-to-mp4\">video to MP4<\/a>.
