Another novice question or two
1) How do you handle producing a videodisc to cope with VGA colour and to
   cope with mono on a MAC, for instance. Are there standard image conversion
   techniques to allow the production of a IV across a broad range of hardware.
2) If I show a constant frame on screen, how do I store running dialogue
   without changing the picture. Similarly, can I store a screen then run
   graphics or text over it without using more than 1 screen picture.
3) Is there a standard gaphics / text primitive language with sound i.e.
   Show this frame, run this graphics program to highlight screen areas, with
   this sound track running, all synchronised ?
4) Where do the differences between PAL and NTSC come into things, or do
   you roll your own format ?

Just curious to see how things are in the IV industry.
