VHS to DVD in Bucharest, Romania

November 27, 2014 11:53 AM

This may be a long shot, but can anyone recommend someone who can transfer VHS video to DVD in Bucharest, Romania?

There are companies advertised online that appear to offer this, however I would prefer a recommendation if possible (since the tape in question has sentimental value). If the person speaks English, that would be a bonus, however it is not a problem if not.

Sorry this is not exactly answering your question, but for about $20 - $30 (USD) you can get a video to usb convertor that will allow you to do the transfer yourself. They come bundled with basic software, and you can use freeware to make the dvd. Test the VCR with a sacrificial tape to make sure it's working properly.

Best answer: Offhand, no but I'd contact the people from the Center for Independent Journalism in Bucharest since I suspect they'd know people who did that sort of media work in the area.
