Hi, maybe my answer is a bit dumb, but then, so be it ! ;)
Why don't you just use a VGA board (instead of a frame grabber) having a TV
output, too ? For example we use Guillemot MaxiGamer Xentor32 VGA boards
that have an S-VHS ouput. I have never tested them but I guess that if you
configure them correctly you can output your 640x480 display via that path,
to a VCR. If anybody could confirm, or tell me what's wrong with my
reasoning, I'd be happy !

I thought this would be soooo easy...
Does anyone know of a board that will support video (NTSC/PAL) output
while being fed with uncompressed data. What I want to do is make VCR
tapes of 640x480 portions of an application user interface.
I had planned to use the DC10+, which sounded like it did all the
things I wanted and wasn't very expensive, but I found out today
(thanks to Serguei Miridonov) that the Zoran ZR36067 pci interface
chip doesn't support uncompressed data coming from the cpu and going
out through the video hardware. Rats.
As a last resort I may try to jpeg encode the screen captures so I can
feed them to the DC10+ for display, but seems like a pretty ugly
solution and may not run fast enough, even on my very fast Compaq
xp1000 alpha.
Anyone have thoughts on this?
The DC10+ seems work pretty well under 2.2.18pre15
