- realtime digitizer
- 24 bit realtime video digitizing in NTSC or PAL - does not require the video player to hold still
- capable of digitizing one frame of video in 1/30 of a second, or one field in 1/60 of a second (two fields equal one frame)
- maximum digitizing resolution is 720×611
- when images are digitized they are stored in YUVN format
- 3 MB, 40 ns DRAM
- two Composite (FBAS) inputs - multiple video sources can be connected and selected by software
- multiple V-Labs in one Amiga are possible and controlled by the same software
- requires at least Kickstart 2.0
- VHI driver

- non-linear editing system
- realtime JPEG compression / decompression chipset
- composite and Y/C input and output
- optional digital YUV or RGB component transcoders (50 pin feature connector)
- integrated genlock and chroma key
- 2.5 MB, 30 ns DRAM
- realtime video capture (60 fields or 30 fps for NTSC) and playback at YUV 4:2:2 square pixel quality 768×576
- integrated scaling hardware giving extended capture and replay capability with picture in picture feature
- also perfect for computer animation playback from any animation package
- motion JPEG nonlinear video edit/playback
- complete ARexx support allows digital video effects to be applied to video frames with third party image processor softwares
- no TBC, time code or dedicated hard drives are required
- fully integrated with the Toccata audio digitizing card giving simultaneous, synchronized, direct to disk CD quality audio recording
- additional adapter for direct interfacing with the Video Toaster
- MovieShop editing software
- video clips and audio are stored within special JPEG file system partitions whose maximum size is 4 GB
- cuts or sequences can be played back any time, making edits of the rough or fine cut visible at a glance
- runs directly on V-Lab Motion board minimizing CPU access time

- Realtime Digitizer
- 24 bit realtime video digitizing
- Interleaved Frame Recording (IFR): allows to digitize full 30 fps digital video sequences to hard disk by making multiple passes of the recorded video
- frame grab in 1/30th of a second, field grab in 1/60th of a second
- digitized images are stored in YUVN format
- 3 MB, 40 ns DRAM
- two Composite and one S-VHS input - multiple video sources can be connected and selected by software
- realtime colour controls
- TBC is not required
- VHI driver
- Special Edition
- V-Lab Y/C exists in a special edition with a production run of only 10 units, which were given by Macrosystem to dealers as a gift who achieved the highest sales of MacroSystem products
- the card came in a wooden box with special manual and a screwdriver from Hazet
- the special edition card differs from the regular version - it has a special PCB with imprint 'VLab Special Edition', gold-plated connectors and a black slot bracket
