- No. You didn't say if your TBC was a framestore unit or not. But, I am
- going to assume so.

- While the video going to the recording VCR will be stable, everytime you
- switch the video source, you will see glitches.

- The only cure is to genlock all of the pieces of equipment and use the
- active switcher, or get a framestore TBC for each input piece, except for
- one camera, which will be used at the genlock source for the framestore TBCs.
