I have been using the AMIGA 1300 GENLOCK successfully for several weeks.
Then, something went wrong, and now I cannot boot the AMIGA anymore
when the GENLOCK is plugged in. The system seems to hang while trying to 
read the kickstart disk: the disk drive light comes on and stays on for ever...
When I unplug the genlock, it boots again.
I have tried to boot with and without an external video signal present, but
it makes no difference. I did have a few (unexplained) crashes in the past 
that left the machine halted and the screen dark. They might be related to 
this problem.

Please email any thoughts on this failure and on its remedy. Thanks.

By the way, how do I mute the external sound, which enters the genlock, under 
program control (as done in the Titlecraft program)?
