Lcd Tv

Hi
I have a new panasonic LCD Tv - With my Amiga conected via composite there a bit of Ghosting and Blockiness

Any ideas what I can do to improve the picture

Try setting sharpness to lowest setting.

Thank you for your Reply ill have a look but im pretty sure ive tried all settings

You could try an RGB Scart lead from Amigakit if your TV has a Scart Socket. SVideo is normally better too if you have that facility, of course you will need a SVideo adapter, these can be a little more tricky to find.

I think on big display quality should not be perfect as you can see everything what can hide older displays.

Use RGB SCART instead of disgusting composite.

I think you maybe right
The sharpness to low did help a little

Thanks ill have to have a look, I know ive got scart not sure about SVideo the TV also has a VGA input

Does the Scart offer much over Composite when it comes to LCD? with CRT I never realy saw much differance

Yes indeed Scart will make a big difference on most LCD TV's

If you have an A1200 you could go for an Indivision AGA but it's an expenbsive (but really awesome) solution

Thank you for the info the Amigakit RGB Scart looks like the job :-)

FYI, RGB > Component > S-video > Composite > RF modulator.

SCART can support RGB, S-Video and Composite, so if you get a picture using SCART you don't necessarily know what technology was used, unless you know what the cable supports. Some TVs write it in their OSD. Also, if a TV has more than 1 SCART connector, usually only one of them supports RGB.

Many DVD players I've tried does not output RGB as standard in their SCART output, but only composite and s-video. RGB output can then be configured in the output settings on the device. The reason for this is that not all TV's can handle the RGB output properly.

Actually, I think a few of them look better under composite. Tastes will vary though.
