Subject: Re: FLASH: .swf to VHS???

Hi,

as the original question was "*.swf to VHS???" i guess broadcast color
space, safe title areas et.al. will not be an issue.
If the question was ".swf to Betacam SP?" that would be different.
Rebuilding the whole movie to get it played out on VHS is a bit over the
top i guess.
The simple solution: Buy a ATI Fury or Matrox G400 Dualhead Videocard,
connect your VCR to the composite video out of the VideoCard, open your
animation fullscreen and record it to tape. Thats it ;). I'd recommend the
Matrox, allows you to output resolutions >640*480 and has brightness /
contrast settings for the output signal.
