I have some questions regarding multi-media hardware. Any information
will be greatly appreciated.

(1) Are there inexpensive (less than 5K) video frame grabbers that take in
motion color video (in NTSC format) and display it on a Sun workstation console?

(2) Does anyone know of video mixers that can take in upto 4 NTSC inputs and
output a picture in which each of the four inputs appears in an equal partition
(if four inputs, each input is displayed in 1/4 of the output picture)?

(3) Are there inexpensive (less than 12 K) Video Disc Recorders with RS-232
interface ?

(4) Are VCRs with RS-232 interface available?

(5) Are there audio digitizers  (with less than 4K price tag)that plug into the
VME bus of  a Sun Workstation?


Your time in providing information about  any of the above questions will be
greatly appreciated. I'll post a summary of the replies if it turns out to be
interesting to many of the people on this mailing list.
