[Coco] 6847 Video (newbie question)

Hi Luis,

I saw some schematics for svideo with the coco but I can't remember where

I started with the gbs simply because the composite video of my coco 2 
is so bad
that it's almost unusable  (and composite video of the coco 3 is worse)

but for the coco3 I'll use your solution :)
