Frequently Asked Questions

What are Heirloom’s Specialty Transfer services?

Heirloom specialty transfer services cover formats beyond standard video tapes, photo scanning, and film reels. These include document and scrapbook scanning, audio cassette and vinyl conversion, audio disc transfers, and the highly requested DVD to Digital Service.

What types of items qualify as “specialty” media?

Specialty media includes items that require unique handling or workflows—such as scrapbooks, loose documents, audio cassettes, vinyl records, CDs, and DVDs. If your media doesn’t fit neatly into a standard category, it likely qualifies as a specialty transfer.

Does Heirloom convert DVDs to digital?

Yes. DVD to Digital is one of Heirloom’s most popular specialty services. Many families trusted DVDs to store memories for decades, but these discs are vulnerable to scratches, cracking, and data loss. Heirloom safely transfers DVD content into durable digital files.

Does Heirloom create DVDs?

No. Heirloom has never produced DVDs. DVDs are fragile, easily damaged, and prone to becoming unreadable. Instead, Heirloom converts content into portable, downloadable, and streamable digital formats designed for long-term preservation.

How are audio formats like cassettes and vinyl handled?

Audio cassettes, vinyl records, and audio discs are carefully digitized using professional equipment to capture clean, faithful sound. Each recording is preserved as a standalone digital audio file for easy listening, sharing, and storage.

Can documents and scrapbooks really be digitized?

Yes. Heirloom scans documents, scrapbooks, and bound materials page by page, preserving both content and layout. This makes fragile paper memories searchable, shareable, and protected from loss or deterioration.

Why choose digital instead of keeping specialty media physical?

Physical media—especially DVDs, paper, and magnetic audio—degrades over time and is easily lost or damaged. Digital files are safer, easier to back up, simple to share with family, and compatible with modern devices for streaming and viewing anywhere.
