Is it possible to connect the output RGB of an Amiga 500 to form composite signal to attach to the phono connector of my video editor. Is there a lead for this spicific purpose or is this not possible. I'm informed that the Amiga is well suited for video titling. Thanks. Frank…

Frank, PMJI, I am not a Sysop………… Let me try an answer, here. If I am wrong, I am sure someone will tell me. I think you are referring to the A 520 adapter that comes with the 500. RGB to Composite video with RCA connectors for audio/video output. I don't know what kind of editor your using, but here is what I would use: A-500, G-Lock, Video Director and the best Video Titler my 500 could handle. The G-Lock is needed for superimposing tiles over video. The Video Director can control LANC cameras,VCRs and most IR controlled decks. It has a nifty scene logging decision list to help you make edit judgements. It can handle RC timecode, also. I hope I answered your question correctly. Regards, –Craig Zwiener

Thanks for the info… I was supplied with an Amiga 500 including Commodore 1081 RGB monitor. with scart socket and connected via lead to Amiga RGB monitor connector. The editor is the Hama Video cut 200 with composite video input. An A 520 adapter may solve the problem… Your help is appreciated. Frank…

Craig, I have an A520 in front of me. I have never used one. This was inherited. It has an RF out and a switch marked L and H on the front (I assume that is to select two different RF channels. On the side are two phono sockets marked Video Out and Audio IN. There is no Audio Out. Pete Jones, flying on AutoPilot from Brussels, Belgium
