Hi Gripper,
Thank you very much for this solution. I handled the problem before 6 am
this morning using a dastardly workaround (as noted in another post). That
had solved the immediate 8 am delivery schedule but didn't really
technically resolve the issue for the next person to follow in our esteemed
footsteps.
So, to benefit all of us (bearing in mind the usenet record is permanent),
today I drove about and after a few stores, I was able to pick up the
suitable output wires for the IBM A31p laptop.
Now it's a cinch to save AVI files to VHS using an IBM A321p laptop!
After hooking to the green and blue composite output (pink is an input), I
can play the AVI files, as you noted, set the display to full screen, and
then press the RECORD button on the VCR. Voila! Instant VHS!
Thank you for being positive and for taking the time to contribute to the
knowledge level of the group as a whole. The great news is that people will
use this post to solve their similar problems given similar equipment and
constraings. To that end, you, Mr. Gripper, have benefited mankind!
Thank you,
Tony Susa
