  I am very interested in Toaster/PAL and I don't worry about 60Hz and
  flicker. I attempted to make animation configuration for the Amiga
  and LYON LAMB ProVAS controller/encoder/sync generator:

 Note that ProVAS incorporating features MiniVAS animation controller
 and ENC7/PAL encoder/sync generator. ProVAS is compatible with all
 major animation software, can be used with Amiga platform, and with
 all video recording formats including S-VHS, U-Matic, Betacam, 1-inch,
 D-1,D-2, and HDTV VTRs,etc. The broadcast quality sync generator with
 genlock allows for the integration of Amiga graphics system into any
 video system.
 In combination with NewTek Video Toaster system is highly recomended,
 but (always but....) is expensive.
 I'd like to hear more about VideoToaster PAL and when will be available
 on the market?
 Any flames?
