Product Description:

S-VHS (Super-VHS) is an improved version of the standard VHS tape. It was introduced by JVC in April, 1987 in Japan. Like VHS, the S-VHS format uses a “color under” modulation scheme. S-VHS improves luminance resolution by boosting the luminance carrier from 3 MHz to 5.4 MHz. This produces a 60% improvement in luminance (picture detail), or a horizontal resolution of 420 lines per picture height versus 240 lines on standard VHS. The often quoted horizontal resolution of “over 400″ means S-VHS captures greater picture detail than even analog (NTSC) cable broadcast TV, which is limited to about 330 lines.

Here at Montreal Home Movies, we specialize in converting your old fading S-VHS tapes to DVD. This process is direct and includes a stock menu. Everything on your S-VHS tape will be transferred onto DVD. We use only the highest quality equipment to convert S-VHS to DVD.
