Hi guys,

i have a custom built hardware which is capable of inserting temperature
information into a video signal (PAL, as i am from europe/austria).

the design is based on a "OSD-chip" from the good old VCR days ;) - and
a microcontroller - however, those components are not available any more
and i would like to go with an embedded linux solution with video in and
video out, and some analog io.

currently i am planning to use the following:

 - via epia with Flash Drive (fanless, cheap, has Video-Out, although
   not at a very good quality)

 - bt8x8 video in card

 - redesign the current analog part with 1wire components - can be
   easily connected via usb - i would also go with "off-the-shelf"
   hardware (i would need 2 A/D converters and some digital i/o) - 
   but haven't found something useful until now ... 

i also thought about using http://www.compulab.co.il hardware - as they
have "Video In" capabilities, but the linux support is unknown (?) -
they say ... and i am not sure how to generate a PAL signal on these
boards ... 

would also like to try out gumstix - but havent digged deeper in what
they offer ... 

so, has anyone here some suggestions for me ?!?!

thanks for all,
mexx.
