Hi All, Please let me know if the following is a real solution… GVP Tech Support told me I could use their G-Lock hardware to run from the A4000 to a Sony XBR^2 Television. He said I would get good looking results in all the modes the A4000 and the new AGA could display, including HAM-8. The GVP tech told me I could use the composite output of the G-Lock to run 15Khz to the Television and that the G-Lock would let me run the 31Khz modes to the Television also with execlent results… Is this for real? Is it worth doing? Or should I just get a CBM-1960 or a Sony-1302 and forget the whole thing? But wouldn't it be cool to be working the A4000 with Ren & Stimpy Playing in the PIP!!!? –Steven Walters

I can't answer for the G-Lock but the IV-24 will let you do it …and quite well I might add…it will also let you put TV(Comp, Y/C, etc) on the monitor….S-VHS Indiana Jones looked pretty good on the 20" hitachi. Dave Elite MicroComputers – via Whap!

I think the part of the GLock running 31KHz video out to your TV is a wild fantasy. I just tried the GLock on the A4000 and my multisync and I am not pleased; Even the 15KHz interlaced with GL enabled is not right. And even with the GLock disabled, deinterlaced video is not passed through correctly..the picture is totally messed up. I am going to have a nice talk with GVP shortly. -Chris

Chris, Let me know how the outcome on this one…! I will have a lot of money riding on the G-Lock and XBR^2 if this is just a wild fantasy.!!! Thanks
