My computer is a 6360 with TV/Radio card. I have Cable-TV hooked up to the TV source, and a Laser Disc hooked up to the Video inputs. However, Apple Video Player can only display input from one source at a time, and must be told which source to display. Under Apple Video Player's WINDOWS menu, select the Show WINDOWS control option. A panel should open. Clicking the second icon (shaped like a screen), opens the Video Source window. >The Video Source window gives me three sources of input: TV, Video, >and S-video. By selecting TV, the Display gives me Cable, and when >selecting Video I get video from the Laser Disc. >Also, the Video Player has its own volume controls, allowing you to >raise or lower the volume in relation to the system volume. >- Can the pci cards effect the internal video module? I don't know. However, I do know that the video from the AV module displays faster/better through the built in monitor port, than a PCI display card. >- Ron, where did you find the 8500 AV module and how much was it? I found it at Sun Remarketing, at www.sunrem.com. Many of their parts are outrageous, especially the common parts like RAM, Hard drives, and motherboards. The oddball parts seem cheap enough. - Ron. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
