Local Cine film to DVD conversion service

ballyhargan

I have already posted this in general techie forms but then just found the NI forum (just getting my head around forums!) so wanted to ask for local advice.

I have old cine films that I want converted to DVD. I want it done properly and would like to hear about other people's experiences. I have searched the internet and there are so many advertised, all outside of NI. Some people in techie form have given great recommendations for these websites, but just want to check before I post (my precious) films to England in case some one can recommend a professional service in NI? Or if anyone has posted theirs off and they came back all ok?

thanks in advance.

Several folks I know have used Emerald Video in Stroke city here, they have a facebook page if you search for them. They have been very pleased with results and cost.

I had a friend with all the old equipment that used to project his cine films onto a screen and record them using a digital video camera to get them onto computer, may be a cost saving exercise if you still have the projector

There's a place on the Lisburn Road - Happy Ireland (?) that does cinefilm to DVD, video to DVD etc. No idea if they're any good or not. http://www.happyireland.com/cine-transfer

They seem to have partnership agreements with a load of chemists across NI so you can drop your stuff off there if you can't get into Belfast.
