[MacDV] Re: Video In

[Mark M. Florida]

Or even get a small LCD TV/video monitor...  Depending on what your 
budget allows...  And how much resolution your sampler needs to be 
readable.  I guess this is the output for the interface?  Or for 
viewing the waveform?  What's the model no. of the sampler?  Just 
curious.
