No, you have an adapter that allows the 15-pin VGA cable from the A1950
monitor to plug into the 23-pin connector.  The adaptor does not create
at 31 KHz signal - it buffers and passes the 15 KHz signal to the monitor,
which is capable of displaying an image at that low frequency.

No, it does not.

The adapter only passes signals from the 23-pin end to the 15-pin end.
It can't be used backwards.

>Are the images processed with the display enhancer NOT NTSC compatible???

You got it.  NTSC runs at a horizontal frequency of 15.750 KHz and a frame
rate of 30 Hz.  The display enhancer puts out a signal running at 31.500 KHz
and a frame rate of 60 Hz.  That is very definately out-of-spec for any
NTSC compliant device, such as your CMI Encoder, your VCR, or your TV.
