I've posted this information before, but I've seen several questions along the lines of Recordable EGA/VGA, Genlock, Video Titleing, Feature Connector use, etcetera... so I thought I'd repost. U. S. Video has a whole line of products including a VGA board that outputs NTSC composite suitable for recording which they demoed at Comdex. They have genlock add-ons for the EGA feature connector that allow video titleing, and Laserdisc control. Give Dave Medin a call, he should be able to help you out. David Medin U. S.
