Hi lord,
To continue our conversation from the other forum:

- My DR-1000 works with PAL
Ok, I emailed SignVideo to ask for shipping and got the following reply: "I am afraid we no longer manufacture PAL versions of our PA's and/or Image Enhancers. Sorry. Only the NTSC version is currently produced.", so perhaps you managed to get a PAL version before it got discontinued? Any other image enhancer I should look into?

- My Elite Video BVP-4 Plus works with PAL
This looks like a suitable alternative, too bad I can't seem to find one on ebay. Any suggestions to where I can find one?

- PAL equiv of Panasonic AG-1980P is good.
OK, will go with one of these to start with.

- Matrox RTX cards are great, if you have the funds.
Indeed they were a bit pricey, but if they are worth the money..

- I don't really know your needs, hard to suggest. It depends on what you'll do with the video once captured (edit, dump to DVD, etc)
Well no editing will be done on the material. Will only restore the material, digitalize and burn to dvd. Good quality DVD-burners are already available in-house.

- You can't do more than one capture per computer at any time. All hell will break loose when your try to multi-capture. It's a bad idea.
Ok, understood.

Is there anything obvious that I'm missing/forgetting here now?

Best regards,
Tobias Lolax (peep)
