Does anyone know of a way to interface a VCR to a Macintosh, such that one
could select frame sequences, as well as capture Mac generated
graphics onto the video tape?  We're wanting to put together a video
development station that can be used to prepare video material ultimately for
videodisc.  We want to drive the equipment from Hypercard or an authoring
language in order to prototype computer-based learning material.  Hopefully
we'd be able to test a tutorial (albeit slower) from the tape, before going
to the expense of mastering a videodisc.

Any thoughts or product info would be appreciated.
