With regard to your image being dim, how is your Sanyo GVR-2950
terminated? I'm not familiar with this deck but typically a BNC input
has a loop to ouput. Its sounds like the deck is double terminated.
How are you outputting from your Stealth board? Do you have a SVGA to
NTSC converter? If so does it have a sync reference? If not are you
using internal or AUTO sync for recording?
Some things to look into. Poor reference sync, may confuse the Sanyo
so that it won't record. Double termination will make the picture
dim. When you go straight out of your stealth card to whatever
converter you are using how does the picture look on your monitor? If
its still dark you may have to adjust your work to accomodate. What
looks right on your SVGA monitor is going to look different once you
go into the realm of NTSC. So when creating work for NTSC you need to
adjust accordingly. You can partially accomodate for this by
adjusting for NTSC and then adjusting your SVGA monitor to be at a
similar luminance level. I have experienced just the opposite affect
however, my SVGA monitor looks dark as compared to NTSC.
