Richard of Glendale Studio Video Solutions is awesome! Audio I just finished carefully listening to and reviewing the several audio discs made for me by him that he transferred so well from a variety of audio cassettes (one commercial album, one with radio hits I recorded back in 1997, the others recorded live of me playing with other musicians. Being the musician and audiophile that I am, I was so impressed that everything sounded so good and right on pitch! You can tell that Richard takes the time for quality. VHS & DVDs Richard digitized many VHS tapes that had family recordings (including wedding) as far back as the mid-1980s through the mid-1990s. Everything looked and sounded fine overall, especially when you consider the age of those tapes. Also, recordings of me playing with different bands throughout the 2000s (one from tape and others from DVDs). Super 8 and Regular (Standard) 8 Film Several years back Richard completed three lengthy files of film: one of my wife's childhood, one of my childhood and one of my wife's very early adult years with her family early on before I was blessed to meet her. We are so pleased to have those on a hard drive which can now be easily copied to make backups and share with other members of the family. Thank you, Richard for the way you handle everything with such great care and precision. read more

We lived in Japan for a year in 1963 when I was 5. My dad bought battery operated transistor tape recorders for us and our family in California so we could record messages to each other on 3" reel to reel tapes. We found the tapes when my sisters and I went through my Mom's belongings after she passed. I wasn't sure what was on there but I was hoping something good. I took them to Home Video Studio and Richard transferred them to a CD. He went to a lot of trouble adjusting the speed as he went, to try to have the voices sound normal. What an excellent job he did! Many voices from the past - aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins and my dad who passed away when I was 18. What a treasure. My cousins and remaining family are planning a reunion so we can all listen. Hats off to Richard for having respect for and taking such good care of these irreplaceable tapes and memories. Excellent work - I highly recommend this company. read more

Richard is the epitome of professionalism, and we would give him 10 stars if we could. My father and I brought 2 cassette tapes to him to digitize. His home studio is perfectly well organized and spotlessly clean. The cassettes we brought him are over 30 years old and not great quality, but Richard did an excellent job transferring them. Prior to coming to Richard, we had an unfortunate experience with another local transfer provider. Richard offered to rush our order at no extra charge because he knew the previous provider had kept us waiting for many weeks, and never completed the work. We were so grateful for this considerate and kind gesture. With Richard and Glendale Video Solutions, you can expect: - A Knowledgeable Professional - Impeccable Customer Service - Your order will be completed on or before the promised due date read more

I was extremely happy with my experience! My family had given me an old 8mm video tape and asked to get it transferred to digital ... so with help from my friend google I was led to reach out to Home Video Studio. Richard was very helpful, and I was able to bring the tape in the day I called, and received the digital version within a few days. The more mature members of my family were grinning from ear-to-ear to view the contents of the tape overseas in England ... and for me, it was just so fantastic to see a video of my deceased great-grandma, who I was very close to growing up ... and my dads 70's flowing locks made an appearance! Thank you so much for your help Richard, and I would most definitely recommend the services of Home Video Studio. read more

I dropped off 30 years of old family videos to Richard at Home Video Studio. My conversion to DVD's was completed a week before promised. The DVD's are numbered and titled. The viewing quality is good. The company keeps numbered copies of your videos so you or other family and/or friends can order specific DVD's by phone using the number. I was credited for all videos that were short or for blank tapes. This demonstrated to me integrity and honesty since I had not viewed these videos for years and could not possibly determine which were short etc. I wholeheartedly recommend this company. read more

I had an incredible experience with this company when I needed help repairing a Mini DV tape. From the moment I reached out, I was met with professionalism and expertise. The technician was not only knowledgeable but also took the time to explain the issue clearly and thoroughly. What truly impressed me was his honesty--he completed the repair quickly and didn't even want to charge me for the service! It's rare to come across someone so skilled and genuine. I highly recommend this business to anyone needing media repair services. Thank you again for your outstanding service! read more

Very pleased with the service I received from converting my VHS to disk. Most were originally recorded in the early eighties in VHS format. One of them was originally recorded on 8mm film 65 years ago so the quality of that original recording wasn't that great. Then that one was converted to VHS some 30 years back so there was degradation from that conversion. Nonetheless I am very pleased with the end result. The presentation package with labeling was impressive. Very good quality work for the cost. Highly recommended. B.Popper Goodyear, AZ read more

I just wanted to say thank you to Glendale Video Solutions! I must say this was an excellent experience for me. I was anticipating getting my VHS from the 90s to be quite a hassle if at all being restored to digital HD. Service was outstanding, informative, and smooth. Also it was completed faster than anticipated. I was very satisfied with the conversion. I will most certainly visit them again for my next project... I would definitely recommend Glendale Video Solutions to anyone looking for their services. read more

Wish I had done this years ago but I just didn't know how to have a VHS copied, without all the blank spots and pictures of the floor. When I got my DVDs back I was thrilled. They were beautiful quality, each event indexed. So professional looking that it's hard to believe they were home videos. Being such a perfectionist, I am very difficult to please. But this time the work, far exceeded my expectations in everyway. I am very grateful . Don't put it off another minute. If you need it done he's THE MAN. read more

Just arrived home after picking up my VHS tape that was transferred to DVD by Richard L and couldn't be happier. I spent an hour or two on the computer yesterday trying to find someplace to have this done in less than a week and came upon Richard's studio. Not only did he complete it in one day, (one 30 minute video) it was the least expensive of all. Walgreens was $35, Costco and Walmart were $20, but all of them said 2-3 weeks for completion. Don't hesitate to call. Carol L. (No relation LOL) read more

Awesome family owned business!! I had a VHS tape that I needed converted to DVD and found this great little place. Richard was such a kind person and told me when he'd be able to have it completed, then called me to let me know it was done ahead of schedule!!! I highly recommend them. It's so nice to find a local business that takes pride in their work and they really show it in their customer service. Thank you for bringing back the memories that were locked away in that old VHS tape. :) read more

We had an old audio demo tape of my Grandfather's (he was an actor, news anchor and narrator) and didn't know what was on it due to it being on an old tape reel and I wanted to get it transferred to a CD to give to my Mom for Mother's Day.....Richard did a great job and in a very timely manner! He was great to work with and very professional. He even gave me an additional copy! Thanks to him we can listen to my Grandpa's lovely voice for generations to come! Thanks Richard! read more

I have used Home Video Studio twice and both times the service, attention and work were fantastic. Richard was so kind and and got my order completed sooner when he learned the videos were of my son who had recently died. He is professional and has excellent people skills. My daughter in law and I thought the cassettes we gave him were ruined and he was able to convert them to a perfect CD! I even got a refund when he had finished the job. I wouldn't go anywhere else.. read more

I needed some recording tracks transferred to a jump drive. I called and Richard said he is backlogged for 3 weeks. That was fine. I delivered my CD tracks on a Friday allowing for 3 weeks. Well, guess what? I get a call 5 days later and he was able to complete the job. And may I say, Superbly! Always Professional, always Complete; I will never hesitate to return. I've had them do Video transferring for me in the past as well. I highly Recommend! VitoMaynes.com read more

I contacted Richard at Home Video Studio about transferring three VHS tapes to CD form. I needed this to be done in a short timeframe and he was able to accommodate my request in even a shorter timeframe than I had requested. I was very impressed with this place of business and had no qualms about leaving the tapes holding so many memories with Richard. I have recommended Home Video Studio to several friends and family who plan to use them. read more

Awhile back I came across 52 rolls of movie film we had taken in the 70s. I knew Richard and Mary from a networking group. I asked them if they could do something with this film and what they did was outstanding!! They created a beautiful DVD and put it together chronologically so we could see the progression of growth of our daughters. This is a fantastic lasting gift for my family and those memories are not lost. read more

Richard does an amazing job. You get exactly what you want, plus his expertise of creating a beautiful video of memories. This is the second video Richard has done for me. Professional, listens to your needs, will fix if it is not what you wanted, and timely in getting the project back to you are just a few things you get from his services plus so much more. I would HIGHLY recommend his services to anyone. read more

All I can say is WOW! I had a damaged vhs tape from which I wanted 5 CDs made. Dropped off on a Saturday of a holiday weekend and was told they would be ready in about 2 weeks. To my surprise, Richard called me on the next business day (Tuesday)! Richard was professional, provided quality work and in a more than timely fashion, and at a more than reasonable price. I will definitely use GVS again. read more

I had 2 challenging projects. The first to copy a number of 50 year old 3" reel to reel audio tapes recorded at 1 7/8 ips to CDs. The second to copy a large number of 30+ year old slides to a DVD. Home Video Studio did great work on both projects, the results were outstanding, on time and at a reasonable price. Definitely a business to recommend and to work with you on your video projects. read more
