I have been asked to join a project on Campus (Purdue) that will involve
graphics, animation, and they want real time interaction and NTSC quality
if possible!  Wow, I know that's a lot for them to ask.  Since I am a
Amiga fan and own a 3000 and am a C= student rep, I am trying to push
the CDtv.  

My brainstorm/question:
I have access to "burn/write/make/press-out" my own cd's.
The CDtv will do decent interactive video but with less than NTSC quality.
The DCtv will do GREAT NTSC ouput from it's own small IFF file input which
  will output as fast as it gets input, right?

Why couldn't I put DCtv format IFF files onto a cd, play the cd interactively
on a CDtv, and then run the CDtv output through a DCtv?

Will this work?  Why or why not? 

If this does work, wouldn't it be GREAT!  Does anyone know of a system
comparable to this?
