It'll take quite a bit more than a simple modulator, I'm afraid. The compact macs use horizontal scan rates that differ from PAL or NTSC, and the vertical scan is non-interlaced. Even if those weren't problems, the bandwidth of mac video is about triple what an ordinary TV video chain supports, so only large objects will be rendered ok. If you have infinite free time, love a challenge, etc., you can find the pinouts (and a detailed description of the video circuits) in the Mac Plus tech info at http://home.earthlink.net/~gamba2. --Cheers, Tom -- Prof. Thomas H.
