I recently received a catalog from Personal Computing Tools which (page 25) describes a device called Video Charley which provides an add-on to extended EGA (they use the Paradise Autoswitch EGA 480) in the form of an additional card via the "features connector". This allows (according to their claims) gen-lock, keying and dissolve capabilities and 640 x 480 resolution. There are also three software packages offered at additional cost. The add-on is $749 and the Paradise board is another $399 if you get it from them with the accessory board installed and tested. This more expensive than some of the devices mentioned in my previous posting but it looks quite versatile. Does anyone have any experience with this device?
