The software seems capable to make pictures larger than 768 pixels by resampling. I.e, the
resulting picturefile can be larger than the video source. 

But it seems the Videoblaster also can be configured to accept some other 
video sources with wider bandwidth but I can't test it because I don't have
any composite video source with other bandwidths than PAL and NTSC.

RGB I think.

I haven`t tested it yet. The manual says nothing.

The VGA-card connects to the videoblaster both with a cable from the 
VGA-output and the feature cable into the videoblaster. The monitor connects
directly to the videoblaster.

The Readme-file on the diskette says videoblaster only supports 640*480, 
but support for 800*600 also delivered, but it's not tested on all 
VGA-cards.

It's selectable from a very little box (bad quality) to the whole screen by pixels.
