Please realize that I am human and am subject to error. From reading various magazines and talking to other hacks, I have found out: PVA: 24 bitplanes (16 million colors) Frame Grabber (1/60 a second) Frame buffer (generates graphics) Genlock (graphics over live video) All sits in 1 A2000 exp. port and A2000 video slot Resolution- not certain, probably normal amiga (w/overscan), should be standard enough for programs that can support it to do so TOASTER: "Millions of colors" - best approximation Real time digitizer (frame grabber) Genlock Real time image processing - DONE BY SOFTWARE, not by hardware! Expandability- possibly add a TI video coprocessor for better graphics, and also maybe a frame controller for a VCR Both units start at about $800. I hope I have cleared up somewhat the situation without a great degree of error.| ------- ]Please excuse any temporal discrepencies with what I say... ]...My temporal perception has discrepencies. ____ _ __ __ __ \Marc Rifkin \ / / /| /_ / / \ of \ / \R38@PSUVM.EDU \ /--- /-| /__ /_/ / _\ \\ // \132 Beaver Hall\ / \ \\// E R T E C H , Inc.\Univ.
