sorry Tigger but i think you should take a look at the differences between NTSC encoding and PAL (without speaking of the 100 more lines for PAL) and not only at the mere 5 FPS differences.
Framiga, I am hugely familiar with the difference in encoding the two. Newtek's current VT product changes between the two with the click of a button. I used to deliver tape, and now deliver DVD in PAL all the time. I'm not sure what you are trying to imply with you lines comment, because
100 lines * 25 frames < 5 frames x 525 lines
which is my point.
Software/effects wise, was another problem as well
Which I pointed, but dual use software even then was known, the CG programs used to work in both PAL/NTSC, etc. Lightwave was always PAL/NTSC and
If any Toaster PAL version would have been ever produced, it would be a different board and not only a chip replacement.
First of all the toaster is mostly gate arrays, the joke was everytime a major update was done we got a whole new Toaster, that was pretty much true. The designer of the system and owner of the company, whose company makes NTSC and PAL products now, his products have won academy and emmy awards for technical merit, and my 20 years as a professional engineer say one thing, and you say another, and we should take your opinion? Please explain your professional qualifications which would lead me to this belief?
