Has anyone ever looked at these things?  It seems to me that it takes a
video signal in via RGB BNC connectors, then converts it to YUV, makes in
the proper scale (via scaling or cropping), and then output to video.  My
theory is that this whole process is controlled via the SCSI bus, although
I wonder why SCSI (as opposed to serial) since it seems that it would only
need a few control commands, as opposed to constant bandwidth.  Can anyone
verify that this is correct?

If that is correct, then couldn't a person use a couple of those to drive
multiple video displays from one AGP video card the way the MCO does for
the Onyx?  Shouldn't reverse engineering what passes over the scsi bus to
control the thing be fairly simple?
