Build Your own A/V Selector

Wondering if anyone knows how a A/V Selector can be made pretty easy and cheap. Thanks in advance if anyone can help me out.

this is a Hewlett Packard controller, they sell for about $49 with a video, analog or relay card. It'll sit there nice and pretty, rack mount with unmatched HP quality. I believe that you can select among 10 video sources. The controller will accept 5 or 6 cards.

You have to program it over the HP-IB or GP-IB, but this isn't difficult at all. They are cheap as a lot were dumped on the market by ATT, Lucent and others involved in the great telcom meltdown.
