I have several video sources connected to my Toaster 4000 without a TBC through a switchbox.
1. A viewsat satellite box that works flawlessly
2. A Ritech DVD player works fine for switching but framestores from it have artifacting
3. The video out from my Sony Vaio laptop works flawlessy which is great for DVD, AVI and Mpeg video and for turning still pictures into framstores.
4. A high end VCR which has a limited built in TBC doesn't work at all even with the built in TBC enabled. Not my prefered video source anyway so I really don't care.
I've tried the video output from several digital cameras and none of them work with the Toaster.
There are stand alone TBCs made for the pro video market that should work for the Toaster. I've looked at them on ebay now and then but I don't have any real need for one and don't know of one to recomend off hand.
