Now Converting · Legacy Media to Digital

Your past,
back on screen.

The birthdays, the recitals, the mixtapes, the home movies — they're still sitting on tapes and film that today's screens can't play. MediaBrace converts your old media into high-quality digital files, with secure in-person pickup and delivery from start to finish.

About MediaBrace

The shoebox is full.
The VCR is gone.

Every home has one — a box of tapes, reels, and records holding the moments that matter most, on formats nothing plays anymore. MediaBrace brings them back. We take your legacy media and return it as clean, high-quality digital files you can watch, hear, and share on the screens you use today.

  • SAFE

    Your media never gets shipped off. Pickup and delivery happen in person, so your originals stay in careful hands the whole way.

  • FAST

    Most projects are finished in 2–4 days depending on complexity — and if you're in a hurry, rush service is available.

  • YOURS

    Your files stay yours. Converted files are deleted one week after the final conversion, using secure methods.

Services

From the shelf
to the screen.

Two ways we bring old media forward: faithful conversion that preserves what's on the tape, and post-production that polishes it into something premiere-worthy.

Video Conversion

We convert legacy video formats into high-quality digital files — the kind you can play on your phone, your TV, and everything in between. If it's been sitting in a closet since the credits rolled, this is where it comes back.

Post-Production

Conversion is just the first cut. Our experienced editors can take your footage further — shaping the story, restoring the color, and finishing the sound until it plays like it premiered yesterday.

The Process

Shelf to screen
in five steps.

No shipping labels, no drop boxes. Here's exactly how your media gets from your hands to your screen and back again.

01

Identify the MediaSCENE 1

Gather the tapes, records, reels, and film you want brought back. Not sure what you've got? That's fine — identification is step one, and we'll help sort out every format in the box.

02

SubmissionSCENE 2

Fill out the Start Your Project form below with a full description of your media — what it is, how much of it there is, and what you'd like back.

03

VerificationSCENE 3

A representative contacts you by email to verify the details of your project and arrange pickup and delivery.

04

Pick-UpSCENE 4

Your media is picked up in person, at an agreed date and time — a secure, scheduled handoff, never a mailbox.

05

DeliverySCENE 5

When your conversion is complete, we contact you by email and then by phone. Your invoice arrives by email, and once payment is made, your media and your new digital files are delivered.

FAQ

Before the
opening credits.

Most projects take 2–4 days, depending on complexity. Working to a deadline? Rush service is available — just mention it in your project description.

You don't ship it anywhere. For security purposes, pickup and delivery are handled in person — we schedule a time, meet you, and your media changes hands directly.

Video tape: VHS, VHS-C, Beta/Betamax, Hi8, MiniDV, Digital8, and Video8. Audio: vinyl LP, cassette, microcassette, 8-track, and reel-to-reel. We also convert DVD, Blu-ray, slides, negatives, and 8mm, Super 8, and 16mm film.

Yes — our experienced editors can help polish your footage. Post-production services include editing, color grading, sound design, and VFX.

Converted files are deleted one week after the final conversion, using secure methods. Your memories belong to you — not to our hard drives.

By invoice, sent by email. MediaBrace is a child company of Techsecom, LLC, so your invoice comes from Techsecom, LLC and is for immediate payment.
