Of this small percentage of film reels that do have a sound line, an even smaller percentage of these used the proper recording equipment required to capture both the sound and picture.īecause these instances are so rare, and to ensure we’re providing the highest quality transfers, it is not our standard process to digitize film with sound.
In rare instances, 8mm and Super 8 film may contain magnetic audio lines and 16mm film may contain magnetic, but more commonly optical, sound lines. In our experience, 99% of film was recorded as silent. Please note that it is not our standard process to digitize film with sound.
As film reels are generally short, our DVDs combine as many digitized reels as possible onto a disc. You choose which way you’d like to receive your digitized film upon checkout.ĭigital files on thumb drive and Digital Download are provided with the industry standard MPEG-4 file format. Your digitized film reels are provided back to you on a convenient thumb drive, provided online through Google Drive, or on professionally authored DVDs. Yes!

But Southtree has the medicine, and we’re here to help. The different frame rate and resolution standards make it impossible to watch them on many North American DVD players and TVs.
