8mm / Hi8 / Digital8 Tape De-layering

These tapes are very prone to mould damage which causes the tape layers to stick and break when played. We have custom built equipment which de-layers the tape using a finite tension and wind speed.  Once this is done the video tape transfer can be undertaken.

What our Clients Say

I’m just writing to say Thank You. You did a fantastic job on my cine films. Excellent reproduction with a very appropriate and atmospheric soundtrack.

Couldn’t be better!

Enda Whyte

The entire family and friends have been delighted with the quality of transfers from 8mm cine films to DVD dating from the sixties and seventies.

Some had been transferred to DVD previously with disappointing results compared to Crystal Media’s work. They have awakened memories of happy holidays and events and will remain a treasured archive for the future.

E. Turkington

I received the Blu-Rays today and would like to say thank you for a brilliant services, outstanding performance on the telecine compared to what I had done in London two years ago. Nice idea with the music, really helps the film. Really impressed.

Brought back a lot of good memories. It will be good for the grandchildren as a record also, I can’t thank you enough and I say you don’t get enough credit.
