Denise, The DPS card installs in one of the Amiga slots, and has two ribbon cables that drape over the Disk bay area and connect to the Toaster board directly. Don't worry, there are diagrams showing exactly how. The DPS PCA will accept up to three S-Video inputs corresponding to Toaster Input channels 1-3 and will output TWO S-Video Program outputs, These inputs and outputs are all on the back of the DPS board, no connections need be made to the Toaster at all. You can mix and match however, by setting DIP switches on the PCA configure any input to S-Video or Composite. If you want composite you just plug into the Toaster. The Composite program and Preview outs are also still available on the Toaster board in unison with the 2 S-Vid program outs on the PCA. So it's very handy as a S-Video Video DA.\ I've got two 1970's and an AG455, I control them and the Toaster with a MS-DOS machine running TAO Editizer. And I know what you mean about 3rd generation loss in dubbing. Don't expect miracles from the PCA, but I feel it was well worth 425 to me for that extra little bit of clarity. I do mainly Industrial Sales and Training Videos. Usually involving Lightwave animated logo Treatments which I bring to life with DCTV encoded animations. Very powerfull stuff for the budget minded videographer. Later, Jim Broek Providence Video Productions 1518 N. Elm St. Escondido, CA 92026
