Greetings!

I have a small problem.  I would like to transfer images from a Cannon Xap  
Shot still video camera to the NeXT via the video inputs on the ND board.   
The Canon uses the NTSC standard, but I've encountered problems using the  
NeXTtv app.  I think it has something to do with the way the camera  
doesn't update the image.

Does anyone know of other software which would be suitable to my task?  Or  
do I get to write my own?

I do lots of things for NeXT, but I don't speak for them.

I encountered a problem when I first connected my Xap Shot but I found out  
there is a little switch on the bottom of the camera so that it will make  
the signal interlaced.  If you look, there is a black little circle on the  
bottom.  If you pull it off you'll see the switch.  That fixed mine.
