- Does anyone know anything about the new Video Blaster card? It allows
- video input of NTSC, PAL, and SECAM input from one ad I've seen! All
- for <$500. But my question is, and I'm afraid I may be disappointed,
- is that I can't seem to find out if the card will OUTPUT in *ANY* of
- those modes. I have a feeling it may only be an input card though.
-
- If it could output video, then it would have some nice HMD
- possibilities. Does anyone have any more info on this? I'm afraid
- though that it's only going to be to input video. Also, how come I
- haven't heard any mention of using two Citizen Color LCD TV monitors
- for HMD displays. Each is under $200 and 2.8" large (next to 2.2" for
- Casio).
