. The PVA 3000 is an A3000 board that fits in the video/Zorro inline slot
of the A3000. An adaptor is available for the A2000.
The spec sheet claims composite, s-vhs (y/c), 31 KHz & 15.7 KHz output.
Picture-in-Picture from an RGB source; analog and digital genlocks;
real-time frame grab; flicker-fixer (RGB outs only); and double buffered
12-bit (4096 color) animation.
Price is $1,995 and GVP said middle August for shipments. Betas have
shipped to developers and the two dealers taking orders (for $1,995) agreed
with August (one said the 26th).
I uploaded an LZH file called AMEXPO.LZH (or something similar) and as soon
as it clears you can read booth-by-booth descriptions of the Expo.
That GVP board was nice, and on display (board itself and also working) in
a couple of booths. It ships with PVA aware versions of Caligari, Scala
and Macro Paint.
