I have about 10 years of Video8 tapes that I want to transfer to digital, but my early ‘90s camcorder doesn’t work. I’m not comfortable with LegacyBox or randos on ebay. Definitely trust fellow RU football fans, though!

I also like doing some macroediting, which I think would be impossible with Legacybox since I’m unable to see what’s on the tapes, although I could do that after the conversion. What was the charge?I’ve used Legacy Box and was very pleased.
Yep, I have one of those that I’ve used to transfer VHS to digital, but I only had a handful of VHS tapes to transfer from the late ‘80s/early ‘90s.I bought one a few years ago that transfers VHS to DVD but now those are also obsolete. I was able to find a plug conversion to plug into HDMI but it’s definitely a Rube Goldberg setup

Oh, and of course tailgating with an RV we drove from CT/NJInterestingly, one of the tapes has the 1996 RU-ND experience, including the pep rally at the Joyce Center the night before, limo pickups to and from there, the cathedral, and the ND band playing RU songs on campus pre-game because the RU band didn’t go.

Well, when I get it done, I’ll post some highlights. The Pep rally was crazy and packed because it was Lou Holtz’s last home game, plus for seniors and the last game in the old stadium before upward expansion.That would be pretty cool to have.

I wish I could remember but I believe it was about $10 per vhs tape which may have even been a special rate. It’s not cheap but I have no equipment or patience for doing it myself. There are a bunch of options for cloud storage, flash drives etc that can alter the cost also.I also like doing some macroediting, which I think would be impossible with Legacybox since I’m unable to see what’s on the tapes, although I could do that after the conversion.

We used Reminiscence, a local business run by a very nice, professional woman from Whippany, to transfer about 10 25-30 year old 8mm tapes to digital. Cost $400 and we were very happy with the work - you can pay less, but we wanted quality and someone local. You also get the tapes back, which some services don't offer.I have about 10 years of Video8 tapes that I want to transfer to digital, but my early ‘90s camcorder doesn’t work.
