Re: Video Digitizer

1999-02-10 Thread NYYRIKKI



 Recently I received a SONY HBI-V1 video digitizer cartridge. I received it
 with only one diskette (Japanese texts written all over it) and no manual
 or diagram describing how to connect it.

It is easy to connect... It has only two connectors, and it does not even
matter witch you use. Plug one cable to cartridge and the other end to
VIDEO OUT in your VCR, TV or any other machine, that gives VIDEO OUT
signal. You can use this other connector in cartridge, if you still need
VIDEO OUT signal for some other equipment. The small switch near
connectors is just brightnes controll. (actually it is ment to
be used as terminator on / off)

After you have connected cables, you can use the internal proggram to
digitize screen 8,10=11 and 12 pictures by typeing :

CALL DG

That cartridge is also quite good commands to be used in own BASIC
proggrams, but probabby you don't need them, so I'm not going to write
that all now.

 Is it for instance possible to 'merge' live video with computer animations
 using this cartridge?

This cartridge has no superimpose features, and it is too slow to do that
with software, so... no, it is not possibble.

I'd be really pissed with the seller...  :-/

HELP, what does it do and how does it do that?
For help, I'd suggest you Elvis Gallegos. He once made a good 
programme for HBI-V1. E-mail him at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Superimpose? I believe it lacks this function.

CYA

Hi Guys,

Recently I received a SONY HBI-V1 video digitizer cartridge. I received it
with only one diskette (Japanese texts written all over it) and no manual
or diagram describing how to connect it.

HELP, what does it do and how does it do that?
The switch near the two connectors has to be in the upper position if you
plug ONE VIDEO source into the lower connector.
If you plug TWO cables (lower input, upper output) you have to switch it to
the lower position.
If you want I have the original manual and can scan the diagrams for you.
They are very easy to understand. Tell me if you want it.
Also there are all the BASIC CALL commands explained there, so maybe
you'll want them too...


Is it for instance possible to 'merge' live video with computer animations
using this cartridge?
As NYYRIKKI said, it is impossible. Well if you want you can do it at
1fps or less...  :(



Thanx in advance,
