- Greets fellow Amiga video enthusiasts; allow me to solocit your wisdom:
-
- I want a genlock with an RGB passthough. Why would anybody want to take the
- darn thing on/off, on/off, on/off, etc, when you could leave it attached
- permantly if it had a passthrough? Why do manufacturers make them without
- passthroughs?
-
- Anyway, this device would be for home use. I don't need broadcast quailty
- (I doubt I could tell the difference), nor do I want to pay a bunch for
- all of the bells and whistles.
-
- I did some reasearch (from Amiga World special edition (the one with the silver
- dude on the cover)) and found the Alter Image genlock to be exactly what
- I am looking for! To bad it's no longer made (serves me right for reading
- year old magazines.)
-
- I see the following options:
- 1. Minigen: no passthrough, other than that... it seems to be what I want
- 2. RocGen: I've heard the signal ain't too good (then again, I couldn't tell)
- 3. SupraGen: do I hafta spend this much to get a clean signal gen w/passthru
-
- Your help is greatly appreciated.
