OT: video signal question - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

21 Mar 2006

I have a couple of Mitsubishi P60W Video printers (anybody want one?)
and they have a remote jack (as well as a print button of course), so
that'd be one way of printing from the Endoscope itself. Can't see much
use for an embedded print signal though; seems to me that could cause
all kinds of problems.

  Hi,

 Can anyone tell me how the trigger signal is
embedded in the video signal?

 The Sony units I have seen, are have the Sony Mavica name, and have
a remote control bus that is used to trigger the prints.  I would look for
a control line to the printer, from the video source, unless they had
a very specialized printer of some sort.  There is the problem of having
the print signal embedded in your video format, if you had several printers
attached, having them all print.
