Geir, Thanks for your vote of confidence on DPS products. Will probably try the TBC IV's. Thanks!! Alan Wolney 72615,256
Dusty, Thanks for the information on the TBC IV's. Considering the other replies that I have recieved, The DPS TBC's look like they will work well for my needs. Specialized TBC'S, such as the Sony BVT-800, must have been required prior to infinate window technology. How would you rate the…
Geir, I'm not sure i'm interpreting your meaning of "fix" correctly. Unless you state otherwise, I'll assume that the TBC IV cards will work properly when the BVU-820's are in the Dynamic Tracking mode of operation. Nobody at DPS can answer my question with any certainty. Have you ever actually…
#TBC advice needed
Message #38325
I am new to using VTR's with Sony Dynamic Tracking. The machines are BVU-820 U-Matic editors. Will TBC's, such as the DPS TBC IV, work properly with my decks? Nobody seems to know how the Dynamic Tracking will effect the performence of the TBC's. Some people have hinted that DT…
TBC's Wanted!
Message #128481
I am currently looking for 2 Sony BVT-800 TBC's for my video suite. Units must be complete with extender boards, mult-pin cables, manuals, and rack mounts. Please reply via E-Mail if you have any of the above for sale. Thanks! Alan Wolney
Frank, I had no intention of going composite to y-688. I wanted to make SVHS to U-Matic transfers for editing purposes, and have a TBC inbetween the source and record U-Matic decks. When editing, the results look far cleaner when using the head to head dub connections, but would look…
Is there any adaptor on the market that will allow me to go direct to the head-to-head input/output connectors on my U-Matic (Y-688) VTR's? HAve never seen anything advertised that will allow this type of Y/C transfer to/from my computer. Any information is appreciated! Alan Wolney

Peter, I have been corresponding with Mike, and it looks like I will be ordering his package. DPS does not have the test patterns available in anything other than toaster still-store format. Thanks for showing interest and taking the time to reply! Alan Wolney 72615,256
Frank, Thanks for the insight on the Toaster Still Stores. I have already contacted DPS by phone, only to find out that they do not offer the test patterns in any other format.Toaster only! As far as recording to videotape is concerned, There is nobody in my immediate circle of…
#Still-store conversion
Message #27022
Is there any program available that can convert Toaster still store files into standard Amiga Graphics files? Need to be able to access the test signal generator's files that are a part of the DPS personal waveform monitor/vectorscope package. Only problem is that these test patterns are only output in…

Edit Controller
Message #23182
I am looking for some older Sony video editing equipment. The model numbers are BVE-800 or BVE-3000. I need the 36 pin parallel control versions of these units. They are both AB roll editing controllers that were designed to operate the BVU-200 family of editing U-Matic VTR's when equipped with…
Jonathan, The Sony BVU-150 is a portable U-Matic SP field recorder designed to be hooked up to the camera of your choice. It is not an editing deck by any stretch of the imagination. It was designed purely for the capture of video data outside of the studio environment. The…
