515.0. "Heildelberg visit (Germany) and Video question" by BRSDVP::SIMONIS () Thu Jun 22 1989 09:16

	Hello,

	These questions are addressed more specifically to German 
	Colleagues.

	On friday the 30th June I will go to Austria for one week holiday
	with my wife. We intend to step at half the way (by car) in 
	HEILDELBERG (known by my wife as a famous University city and by
	me as a place where there are 'famous' (?) software house for ST).

	First question is : Do you know place(s) where I can find shop 
	selling good and not too expensive video Graphics software (like 
	IMAGIC)? If yes could you insert also a short description of the
	way to follow (from a easy to retrieve reference point) to reach
	the store.

	Second question is : I like to enhance video pictures (like with
	IMAGIC) but this is only possible if you have a digitzed image;
	thus I would like to find some hardware tools (GENLOCK ?) to let
	me do that (preferably in 'real time') and that I could find in
	Germany during my travel (and more precisely in Heildelberg where
	I will arrive in the mid afternoon).

	Third question is : would it not be possible to use some kind of
	video recorders ,which have digitized freezed or paused 
	possibilities, to get the digitized output to the ST (even with
	some 'midnight' hardware hooked up to this output) ?

	Last question but which is not related to the ST :
		Does some German natives know where ,in Heildelberg or
	around, I can find a not too expensive hotel for one night ?

	with my beST regards		Vincent (Belgium)

    Artist (paints and photos). Sorry for the mistake in the name of the
    city ; it is HEIDELBERG and not heiLdelberg.

    IMAGIC is distributed (created ?) by Application Systems Heidelberg
    Englerstrasse 3, Tel. 06221/300002. Why don't you give them a call
    when you are in Germany. They have been very helpful concerning
    variuos questions I had in the past and their support is very
    professional. They should know where to get your hardware.
    
    The only shop addresses I know in Heidelberg are:
    
     - Heidelberger Computer Center
       Bahnhofstrasse 1                       <- follow signs to
       6900 Heidelberg                           Main Railwaystation,
       Tel. 06221/27132                          #1 is at the other
                                                 end of the street passing       
                                                 the station
    
     - JACOM FAMILA-CENTER
       Hertzstrasse 1                         <- don't know where this
       6900 Heidelberg                           is now, but before they                    
       Tel. 06221/302437                         moved to this place,
                                                 it was the better shop
                                                 of the two. 
      
    If you are looking for (cheap !) night accomodation, don't try in
    Heidelberg. Rather look for something in the small villages around
    Heidelberg, for example: Schriessheim, Dossenheim, Neuenheim, Leuters-
    hausen, Edingen, Ladenburg. Sorry, I don't have the name of a specific 
    location - I was living in Heidelberg for about 6 years some 8 years ago
    and therefore not very much interested in Hotel accomodation; but
    I know from friends that it's much cheaper a bit outside.
    
                                 have a nice trip,
                                                  Matthias

    Great Matthias,
    really I didn't expect any answer and I was wrong.
    We are great...
