Is it possible to use a Time Base Corrector with a Video Tape Recorder that does not have the "external sync in" feature? I am using Intel's DVI boards (the 2-board set) and the captured sequences from my cheap VTR are all of out sync. This is not true for sequences directly from a camera, or from an expensive optical disk recorder. Short of buying an expensive VTR with the external sync feature, is there anyway of cleaning up the signal using the TBC? -- Andrew Patrick, Ph.D. Department of Communications, Ottawa, CANADA andrew@calvin.doc.CA "The interface IS the program."

You can only use a TBC that has full frame digital memory, typically this is
called a framestore TBC, since it will internally lock onto the incoming
video. A windowed TBC will not work.
