<div dir="auto">Better late than never! When I have digitized
S-video to DV I have been disappointed about less color
saturation and darker pictures of theDV result playback.

chain, and not as exspected the A/DV conversion.</div>

<div dir="auto">MX-1 has been known to include an effective,
fullframe TBC, 8bit/422 brilliant color depth/sampling and
500 lines resolution, especially the better PAL version. It
is also a video mixer with noise filter an a lot of effects
like Chroma key.</div>

Despite that this is off-topic and specific historical, I will
supplement that MX-1's Advanced Setup also had Black level setting
and Composite Chroma AGC.<br>
Setting the latter Automatic Gain Control, compensates for RCA input
source with weak color signal, ref. the MX-1 manual chpt 5 and this
good, old forum's reply:<br>

<div dir="auto">But I had and have tested a Videotech Design
VCC3010 high resolution (700 lines!) RGB color corrector and
video processor, with no need to decode! </div>

<div dir="auto">A week ago I tested VCC3010 in front of MX-1,
with no visible result. That is, MX-1 did eat also these

<div dir="auto">But now when VCC3010 is connected after
(behind) MX-1, the colors and saturation on the DN-300 DV

<div dir="auto">Some will probably say colors can be added
easy in the post. But I prefer also the "digitized sources"
keep the original color levels.</div>

is currently converting and recording S-video to DV
again, though it somewhat fickly to get mounted "HDD

100% certainty that here we have never

conceivably means that it can be built

not understand why you would want this

Now when the M2T and DV recorder in the middle is
