@save 2600, and whoever else ....

The issue is that the Toaster is alot more than 'a genlock' ... For better or worse, the Toasters needs absolutely Perfect video to work with.. When I was testing my Toaster4000 in a similar way to the OP, I had to run the DVD output through the TBC and a macrovision defeat box (copyguard remover) even though it was a copied DVD that was supposedly stripped of MacroVision... :confused:

There's no easy or cheap answer... Look out for a 'Kitchen Sync' on EBay (dual TBC card) , check pro video outfits for used outboard TBC's, some semi-pro switchers had TBC's on-board (tho' they could end up costing as much as your Toaster system....)

Honestly, the Toaster is really pro, or semi-pro equipment... it was expected that most purchasers already had several TBC's, black burst / sync generators, etc.... Remember, the orginal price for the Toaster was a 'mere' $1,995.00 ....

But, Why, oh Why, did they never make a PAL version ????
