I seem to have 650 AM WSM bleeding into a video feed, and screwing things up royally. I've got a new toy for my Mac that's a passthrough box for the video feed to the monitor. It splits the output, and converts one of the resulting VGA feeds into RCA, so I can hook it up to a TV/VCR. I get it all set up, and the screen image shows up on my TV, but it's in B&W, and rolling vertically four times a second. Also, when the video feed is connected from the box to the TV, I get an audio feed from WSM. This is with NOTHING in the audio jack, and only happens when there's a video connection between the box and the TV.

Something similar happens with my cable. Channel 2 has a shadow on it, and the audio's fuzzy. I gather that this is because of some overlap between cable channel two and arial channel two, but of course they're the same transmission, so it's just a shadow, and not anything unwatchable. Still, a similar problem, I think.

Any insight?

I HAVE a PC.

It's just that I can get the equivalent Mac hardware for a quarter the price.

Not to state the bleedingly obvious, but if you open attachments contained in e-mails received from people you've never heard of, then you're a moron. Jeez, these pop up every few months, and people STILL think that complete strangers are sending them dirty pics/rude jokes/tennis stars just out of kindness. PsyLiam
