- Only TV resolutions accepted. So 720x576i is maximum. VGA usually allows anything upto native panel resolution in progressive.
Disadvantage via VGA is that some LCDTV's and most LCD monitors don't accept 50Hz VGA input. So you either have to run in NTSC mode or perform scan rate conversion which kills smooth scrolling.
Most places will take back a TV with no fee, or if it is a big expensive TV... take your A600 in with you for testing, I would :-) |
Pardon my hesitancy I should have looked at this thread before posting my own doh! I remember taking my Amiga into currys when PS2`s were all the rage, I had some strange looks when testing Jim Power out on their massive LCD screens
