The video conversion equipment is to be used only with the assistance of a trained technology missionary.
Equipment is provided to capture, in real-time, the video from full-size VHS and Compact VHS (VHS-C) tapes. The captured video files will be in .mpg and .mp4 formats and will be transferred to the patron's personal USB drive to take home. A two-hour video will need about 8G of USB storage for the .mpg format and 2G for the .mp4 format. Other video tape formats can also be captured with the patron's video camera/player and the cables to connect to a TV set (RCA cables (yellow, red, white) or S-Video cable). The video tape can be split into smaller topic-based segments during the conversion - birthday party, vacation, graduation, etc. The result is small subject-based videos that can be uploaded to Social Media (Facebook), loaded on a phone, or easily shared with family & friends.
