In addition to didling around with PICs, I am also involved in desktop video. Are there any sources for video applications using PICs? A couple of ideas that come to mind are: an RCTC timecode reader/writer and a timebase corrector (TBC). Both of these devices are microproccesor-based and sell for megabucks in commercial versions (over $500). My observation is that often such devices can be homebrewed for a fraction of that price. Any suggestions or URLs would be appreciated. Jim, Wk8G
