ZXvid Install

Post by jsweinrich »

Can the ZXvid be installed in tandem with the existing UHF modulator from an electrical perspective?

This, of course, assumes that one finds a location to mount the ZXvid and provide another RCA connector for output. My ZX81 is mounted in a Bud box so mounting is not an issue.

I put 2 modulators in parallel in my first computer (a Spectrum), I didn't notice the signal getting bad on my tv.
one of the modulators had a switch to interrupt the video input, IIRC it was deviating the input wire to ground.. one of the 2 tv simply could be blanked (no noise). Never used it but for experiments :D
