Even add animated menus. Searching and sorting is easier too. The complete
package is available in retail stores for GBP59.99 inc.

Conservation vs. quality loss

As the years go by, the image quality of your videocassettes will
decrease. Due to magnetic influences during storage, the colours are washed
out and the contours become blurry. In addition, the coating disintegrates as
a result of playback and smudges off slowly, even if the whole tape hasn't
"died" in a crumpled mess long before. For these reasons, it is highly
advisable to preserve your tapes via digitization using suitable hardware and
software like "Rescue Your Videotapes!" from MAGIX.

When a video is present in digital form, it can always be burned again
and saved to various media storage devices like hard disks or online
platforms. Thanks to DVD menus and removed advertising, your cinematic
treasures or home videos on VHS can now be enjoyed in more comfort than ever
before.
