Default Re: Generating 405 line video using a Windows PC

Thank you Julie

I have recently been getting back into this kind of thing (micros plus programming), but on comparing, although there seems to be plenty of processing power there, I sidelined the Raspberry Pi in favour of the Arduino. Far less power but more readily programmable for easier tasks.

I see a PC, as they would have it these days, not readily accessible as operating environments are generally designed to protect the unwary from screwing the system. There is also the issue of multitasking which does not help critically timed processes. That is why I mentioned it as it would be easier to use a dedicated device (at least in theory) Still I am probably preaching to the converted here.
