I would like to congratulate Darius on building an analogue standards converter. In my article in BVWS Bulletin 27/3 I dismissed analogue standards conversion in a few words as an impractical option. I know it's technically feasible using the original BBC switched capacitor method but that is massively complex. CCD delay lines, as used a few timebase correctors many years ago would also do the job. I had not thought of using VCR DOC bits.
