Hi there,

     Are there any hackers out there who have used the video options
on their Iris.  My problem is this: I was finally able to compile and
run the "cg2.c" program in the "/video" directory which displayed my
screen on a remote RS 170 composite video monitor and allowed me to 
toggle back to my high resolution 60 Hz graphics monitor.  The 
problem [or what I believe to be a problem with a solution] is that
the colors are not exactly the same on the video monitor as the 
graphics monitor.  I've read the documentation "Programming the 
Genlock Composite Video Option" a dozen times (no kidding!) but I
am still not sure if there is a way to solve this problem.  Any
ideas [or solutions!] are greatly appreciated.

                                   
                               John (alias,..the Jersey Renegade)
