Right. And what are you capturing it on? What inputs _exactly_ do you
have? For example, do you have separate syncs, composite sync, or
sync-on-green?
What are you really trying to do? Waht is the
machine you are taking the
outputs from, and what are you trying to do with them?
Trying to capture the output of a program running on an IBM 5160 that
only looks correct via CGA RGB output. I would
need to go to school to understand what I would be looking at.
Err, I didn't. For the record I have never had a single formal class in
any form of electronicvs.
Had I enough free time, I could learn it too, but I don't have much
these days. My free time in my youth was spent learning the hardware
from the outside (ie. assembler programming), not the inside.
I have the opposite problem. I learnt hardware first. Which means I tend
to think about probramming as to what it will do to the hardware
(somtimes at a very low level).
