A DSP is a general purpose device, just like a CPU is. It's how it's connected into the _system_ that defines what it's capabilites are. The DSP on the Sunrize board is only connected to the audio circuitry, I/O, etc. So, the only way to get in to help out for other Amiga tasks would be to unsolder it from the board, design a new interface to the video bus, and write a few thousand lines of code. That might work. Tim Haupt
