Digital Broadcast Betacam Tape Transfer Services to Digital Files

Oxford Duplication Centre specialise in Digital Betacam conversion to digital ProRes 422HQ files. All frame rates and codecs are supported. Other pro video formats we digitize are HDCAM SR, Beta SP, DVCPRO HD.

 All Betacam variants from (plain) analog recording Betacam to Betacam SP and digital recording Digital Betacam (and additionally, HDCAM and HDCAM SR), use the same shape videocassettes, meaning vaults and other storage facilities do not have to be changed when upgrading to a new format. The cassettes are available in two sizes: S (for Short) and L (for Long). The Betacam camcorder can only load S magnetic tapes, while television studio sized video tape recorders (VTR) designed for video editing can play both S and L tapes.
