That definitely is a nice "accidental" feature you discovered! 🙂 Tom

Tom, on your "Transcode 60 fps non-interlaced images to 30 fps laced", that's what I can't get out of the FS <sigh>. Just think, if we could do that, we could have PC to PC wipes and disolves and just do away with the cameras alltogether <grin>. Well, can't have everything easy. The Diamond folks were so surprised with the discovery that they discontinued the series of display adapters <sigh>. Well, that's not the only reason, but they were quite amazed that they had let a capability like that slip through without being able to market it to the hilt. All they needed to add to the Star 24 adapters was B&C connectors for the R/G/B/S outputs. Then they could triple the price and market it as a Standards Converter interface <grin>. Vince
