Hi,

Like you know I am also abit into this VGA2TV business- but more with
my arcademachine. I make use of direct RGB-input via software so colors
and
stuff maybe abit better for me- but that means runing into trouble with
interlace-flickering (for arcademachines a real non-interlaced mode like a

tweaked modex for example 512x512 would be great). However, it is funny to
see Arachne on a real great screen and I like the look&feel of Arachne on
my
arcademachine.

Such a "TV visual setup" for Arachne would be a real nice feature and
I think a challenge for programmers. Things to look at are the Sega
Dreamcast-
browser Dream Key 1.0 or settop-boxes TV-browser. It is also interessting
to
search the net and looking for what made TV-graphics-programming so
special 
(and sometimes a nightmare). 

It was new to me what you say about DR-WebSpyder- is there a place for
a stand alone download so I can test it?

regards, J�rg
