I have an LC575 with 7.5.5 and here is my question: is there someway to output video from the machine? Either through hardware or software. I do gaming reviews and want to do some classic Mac titles, but have no way to record them. I don't want to just point a camera at it and I would like to avoid emulation like Basilisk if possible.
Video/frame capture on LC?
Short of finding a card such as the Focus L*TV (which goes into the PDS slot and gives you composite video out, EXTREMELY hard to find - I've never heard of anyone on here coming across one), your only option is to get a video out solution (such as the Power-R Presenter 575 or whatever its called), and to use it to connect a scan converter (such as the Apple Presentation System), which you would then be able to connect to your TV or VCR.
Something like this?

How involved is an install of one of these - does it looks like it's missing anything?
I have one of those with paper manual, can cut you a slightly better deal. Not sure where you are going to mount it.
Yeah, I was kind of wondering that myself... I don't see anywhere it would mount very nicely. If there's some solution to that (which I assume there is?), I would be interesting in buying it off you. PM sent.
Looks like exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for, provided that it works! Thanks!
So, this type of card is the opposite of my VideoSpigot LC frame capture card? :?:
The eMachines SimplyTV Card macmetex is selling just sends Mac Video to a TV?
The VideoSpigot captures TV and creates Quicktime Movies, IIRC . . . I haven't even tried it out yet . . . :I
jt: so many toys . . . so little time! :

I have a Videospigot LC as well, but it sucks having to trade ethernet for it so I have yet to play with it.
I hear that!
I've also got th Radius VideoVision Studio in my Radius 81/110 (?) PPC Clone, so I played with that a little back in the (early 68kMLA) day.
Can't remember what the results were though . . . :I
. . . doesn't matter though, that setup is supporting (alongside the Q950) the MultiWorkStation/MacDisplay unit I've been working on for my living room. I'm in the finishing stages of that project, so piccies will be posted . . .
. . . within a month or so . . . maybe . . . :-/
jt: too many projects/too little time . . . and $!
I have the IIsi Spigot with the rare double-header Nubus converter plus 030 PDS passthrough card
