Hi,
I have been using TV cards on laptops/PC's, you can find low cost
USB or PCI cards everywhere, just check that they have an svideo
input AND cable/plug.
This way you don't waste more space than necessary, and can use
Alt-Tab to switch to your sampler (still have to use the other mouse
unfortunately).
This one looks OK :
Anyone know of anything practical out there ?
