Yes – and no. The HAM-E was designed so that all of that would work. UNfortunately, a Genlock drives a 28 mhz signal back into the Amiga to control it's timing exactly. The HAM-E has a three foot (approx.) cable that this signal also has to travel through, and we have found that only a few genlocks will drive this line reliably. You can use an encoder to record the output onto either a standard VCR or an S-VHS vcr, though; a "DigiFEX VIP" encoder is about $100.00 and will produce composite, S-VHS, and provide an RGB passthru all at the same time. I really like mine. We will have a solution for the genlock cable problem at some time in the near future; we've already designed it, but manufacturing takes a while to get going.
