Here’s a detailed overview of our pricing for a VHS to USB conversion:

There are different VHS to USB conversion services in the UK to choose from. MEDIAFIX is a trusted and professional digitisation service that transfers VHS to USB stick in high quality at competitive prices.

After your old tapes have successfully been converted to USB stick, you will be able to rewatch them on modern devices like Smart TVs, PCs or even copy the files on your smartphone or tablet.

There are different options to transfer VHS tapes to USB in the UK. While some electronics shops or supermarkets might offer conversion services, they often do not convert all videotape types and often charge a higher price compared to companies specialised only in digitisation. This happens because they outsource the work to other providers.

For this reason, we recommend choosing a trusted digitisation company like MEDIAFIX. This way, you’ll have better prices and get conversion results you can be proud of. Furthermore, you won’t be tied to a specific location: you’ll just have to send the tapes by post and we’ll take care of the rest!

If you want to copy VHS to USB, you have two main options:

Converting VHS to USB at home
What you need: A working VCR, a VHS-to-USB converter, RCA cables or a SCART adapter, a USB capture device and a computer.

How it works: Connect all the devices. Then install the capture device software on your PC. Insert the VHS tape into the VCR, configure the transfer in the software and start it. The tape will be digitised in real time, so the process is time-consuming. Furthermore, depending on the quality of the equipment, you’ll get a result that is not always as good as you’d expect.

Using a professional digitisation service

Don’t have time to do it yourself or don’t have a working VCR at home? Then it’s better to use a safe and reliable digitisation service like MEDIAFIX.

What you need: A package and your signed order form.

How it works: Send an enquiry through our website. Choose your preferred quality level (Standard or Premium) for your VHS to USB conversion. Then simply send us your videotapes by post.

Now it’s our turn. We’ll convert your VHS to a memory stick, according to your wishes. Once digitised, you’ll get your tapes back on a USB stick, ready to be relived with friends and family.

Both DVD and USB are good storage devices, but USB is slightly better. If you still have a DVD player at home and want to watch your tapes on the TV, then DVD is the best choice.

However, converting your video tape to USB means that your digitised videos will be saved as MP4 files. You’ll be able to connect your memory stick easily to your Smart TV or laptop. Furthermore, you can copy the files and transfer them to your mobile phone and tablet or even share them with your relatives or friends.

Together with your VHS to USB conversion, you can book post-processing to reduce noise in the original tapes and improve the colours.

To summarise, at MEDIAFIX we offer both options, but we usually recommend a conversion to USB stick for its flexibility and compatibility with multiple modern devices.

We convert your VHS videos to USB in two different quality levels:

Owning a VHS tape doesn’t mean that you have the right to digitise it. To convert commercial VHS tapes to a USB stick, you need permission from the copyright holder. Without this authorisation, we cannot convert your tape. Of course, if you have private VHS tapes that you recorded yourself, it’s not a problem for us to digitise them.

Yes, we just need the exact start and end time stamps.

Yes, we convert every video tape type. It doesn’t matter how long the videocassette is, we don’t charge extra costs for longplay videocassettes.
