[comp.sys.atari.st] JRI Genlock system

Does anyone know what the JRI Genlock system does?  I know what
genlocking is--it's just that I saw a one-line ad for this system
which I've never heard of before.  

Thanks in advance for any info.

Don't know much about the JRI system, but I saw it in action at The World of
Atari in San Jose last weekend, and it looked real nice.  Live video with
computer generated color graphics laid on top.
  In case someone doesn't know, genlock allows a computer to sync to an
external vido input, so that the two can be mixed together.
As I said, the JRI unit looked real crisp.  they had a three-dee animation
of the word 'genlock' spinning over the output from a camcorder.

...that's all I wrote!
