The New digitalFAQ.com Almost Done!
In July or August 2010, the new and
final version of this site should finally be live! Once the CMS is up,
we'll post weekly featured articles here on the homepage,
along with other unique and useful content.
Many new guides are also on the way. And not just for
digital video -- our information is expanding into all
digital media, from digital photography to web design
and software-based print design. Plus all the
non-software theory and concepts that go into making
great digital media!
If you've been to the forum, you've already seen the
new overall look. Here's a sneak peak of the new main
site code in action:
NOTE: During the code move, which will coincide
with a server move, we may experience several hours of
downtime. And for several days, there may be bugs to
iron out.
About
The Digital FAQ
What began as a single video guide in 2002 has exploded into
a full-fledged digital media information site. We at
digitalFAQ.com strive to provide services and information
for those that want to be part of the digital media
revolution. Our specialty is digital video and the DVD
format (including DVD-R, DVD+R). We offer VHS to DVD
conversion services, video restoration services, and free
guides for the do-it-yourselfers out there. Guides cover the
full spectrum for creating DVDs; this includes capturing,
editing, converting, encoding, restoring, authoring,
burning, copying, presentation (menus/cases), and buyer's
guides. The web design and photography sections are for
future expansion.

Did Our
Site Help You?
If any of this information has helped you,
even a small Paypal payment of $5 would be appreciated.
That's less than the price of a magazine, but with
content that I hope you've found to be far more useful
than what you find on the bookstore racks.
Make a donation today! More money was spend on
server upgrades in summer 2010, as well as several nice
guide/review updates (mostly as forum stickies) -- plus MANY
new forum posts -- so please make a
donation to keep this place alive and growing.
Our
Articles and Services
We aim to be a no-jargon site:
Although this site will likely introduce you to new
terms and new ideas, we reject the common practice of using
excessive technical jargon.
Digital media is hard enough
without use of a foreign language! All services and related
correspondence will use common language so that the client
will understand what is happening at all times. All guides
on this site should be read from top-to-bottom, especially
the intros and overviews, as they explain common video
terms.
Video restoration services:
If you have a video
that is proving difficult to capture, and buying
professional grade equipment (proc amp, TBC, S-VHS VCR, etc)
is not a viable option, this site offers restoration
and conversion services.
Prices start at $25 per DVD, and
can go up based off a sliding scale that depends solely on
the length and severity of the video to be converted or
restored. See our videotape-to-DVD
restoring services page for info.
