True, but can we pass it on to the DAC from the video controller, or do we 
seperate the sync settings, preferrably including polarity, from the video 
controller and make it a config register for the DAC that is set at mode switch 
time?  The function call that compiles and uploads the video controller program 
is also responsible for setting the sync mode register.

This might not be a vid controller setting at all.  Rather, it's
probably a configuration of the DAC that tells it how to interpret
composite sync (which we just put out on h and v together or
something).
