No, the gadget I made was specifically for animation, ie. adding one frame at a time to a tape by a punch-in edit. So, all you needed was a source of NTSC video and one editing recorder. We used it with a computer frame buffer with RGB output and a Lenco color encoder. One of my customers used it with a Tektronix color graphics system and a camera pointed at the screen, and used the M-series VCRs, which were amazing.
Eventually another local customer had a frame buffer that would hold several seconds of frames, and wanted to punch-in the whole sequence at one time. Our device would do that, but the computer needed to know when the recording actually started, so I added a feature to send a message back to the commanding computer telling it when that happened. When that computer got the message, it started the frame buffer playing the sequence.
