15 years agoyou will need an analogue to digital converter that converts video signals, and then a d to a for the output. NTSC is an analogue format that an FPGA cannot read directly.
What are you planning on doing with the video? if you intend to have a latency > a few lines, you will need some external ram as a video buffer too.
