RE: video tape conversion to .wmv
Transfer and Set Up is a real time encoding transfer, (1 hr of tape is
1 hr of time for transfer. Set up and prep for each tape we budget at
30 min) so transfer for encoding is 1.5 hours X $75.00 hr. = $112.50
per tape. Multiply that number times number of tapes. I don't how this
translates to Canadian costs or who locally could provide the service.
