William, I'm sure there are any number of ways to do it with enough equipment-that's why I said you could probably do it on an Avid when a Flyer was suggested. I was looking for a cheap way to do it and thought there might be a piece of software written for this task so you wouldn't have to get into TBCs, laying it to tape, etc. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Barry, Haven't explored it much yet, but OpalVision lets you can run 24-bit images as slides on the OpalVision board while using a program like AmigaVision or CanDo to overlay Amiga computer graphics and/or text. (If Scala turns off multitasking, you might have trouble. AV and CanDo trigger the OV slide changes by ARexx.) The SuperGen and G-Lock can both work with the newer versions of the OV card as simple encoders, if that is all you require. Is this what you had in mind? C F Coats –> via AutoPilot

CF, Thanks for the information. It does sound a bit easier than the other suggestions. The only problem is that I've only got a an A500-no place to plug a an OpalVision board. Maybe I'll have to wait until I get a 3000 or 4000, but thanks again. Barry
