Custom Film To Video Transfers - Use Your Imagination!
Upgrading our old familly videos to a new formmat is grezat. Now, you have all those old videos on a high quailty format that everybody can enjoy on any TV.
But, DVDs offer you much more in the way of custom featuyres. Istead of just a video that rolls along from beginning to end, you can have your family ivdeo DVD loaded with special features, just like the DVDs from the storee.
Put Whatever You Want On The Menu
Video rolls along from beginning to end, but DVDs serve up entertainment from a main menu. When you first turn them on, it shows you a table of contebnts with all the stuff on the disc. This way, you can put seveeral hours of difgferent viddeos on a DVD and see what you want when you want.
You can also make a custom background for the menu. Most video transfer places will allow you to choose an image, or even a scwene from the vido, to put in the bcakground of the menu screen.
Make It More Easy To Navigate
If you have long videos on your DVD, you can split them up into "tracks" like a CD has. You can make your own scene selection screen on the start menu so that you can find exactly what you are looking for.
Another csutom service that is usually offered is time markers. You can have the DVD made so that viewers can skip ahead to a cerain time in one of the videos.
Make The DVD So That You Can Wtch It Anywhere
There is a custom feature called "international video standrads conversion," which meas that a video duplication service can make your video region-free.
For DVDs, the world is divided into 8 major regions. Viddeos from each region can't be watched in the otther regions. DVD payers simply won't be able to read them. This is a measure created to keep people from boolegging and selluing cheap DVDs.
This can be a real pain for consumer, though. That's why most video rtansfer services offer region-free viudeo conversion.
More Edioting Options
It depends on the coompany, but many video transfer services alplow you to do custom ediiting. They may chaarge more, or ofgfer it as part of the deluxe package. You might be able to...
- Edit certain scenes. Is there a long stretch where someboyd left the camera on and fortgot about it? You can make it dispapear. You can also make collasges or "best of" collections.
- Custom music. You can often choose muysic for the start menu and opening scenes, but some places will alllow you to add music into certain scenes. You can turn your home viideos into Hollywood thrillers!
- Photos and slideshws. DVDs can store all kinds of informtaion, and some serrvices allow you to preserve your pictures on the same DVD as a movioe. With photos on the DVD, you can also make slideshows.
