![william chan](https://forums.parallax.com/uploads/userpics/RBTCEMRWP85K/nQFR9OII9OM33.jpg)
Will the Propeller V2 at 160Mhz 16cogs be fast enough for the following tasks ?
1. TV Out Video Capture
2. VGA Video Capture
3. Direct interface to USB 1.1
4. Direct interface to 802.11b radio
Thanks.

2. Hmmm... maybe with external memory, or if you are satisfied with at most 16 colors
3. Yes, if Chip adopts my suggested enhancements to the shift register
4. Maybe, if Chip adopts my suggestions for the shift register it may even be possible to do 100MBps ethernet
You could then use the propeller to make a device that uses a portable TV to tune in TV signals and display a crappy image on, er... another portable TV. Not useful - but fun!
Hardware and software .

www.vtech.com which can do so many simultaneous colours on TV.
Will Propeller V2 be able to do that?

I know the current color set lacks muted tones. But with signal dithering you can generate them.
The problem is RAM.
since I want to implement audio synthesis (karplus strong, delay stuff, wavetable...) and RAM is rare I designed a PCB to add cheap and simple old SIMM DRAM Modules from old PCs (up to 16MByte) with a serial interface (6pins if you only use 2MByte)
here is the schematic:
