However, generating the video signals myself will complicate the project quite a bit, and not leave time for other, more important aspects of the project. As this is a project idea for my final year of my degree in Software Engineering, if I encounter many problems in generating the signals it could seriously affect my degree. I was wondering if there were any fairly cheap chips around to help with the video signal generation? Something I could easilly interface with a PIC to simplify things somewhat. As I sort of said, I am not an electrician. I'm a programmer. Electronics is just a bit of a side hobby, and hence I do not know that much about it.
