Doug,
        Yes, you can do all this with an Amiga. There is one other thing you
will need to pull this off and that's a Genlock. Commodore makes one for the
A2000 which goes for about $450.00 (Canadian); I guess that would be somewhat
less in the U.S.
        There are other Genlocks available, of course. You can spend as little
as $150.00 (not recommended) or as much as a few thousand.
