LCD Screens and Amiga modes
« on: October 03, 2005, 08:40:03 AM »
I have been hearing about people hooking their Amigas up to some LCD screens, is this with all of them or are there certain models which support it because I would like to find a monitor like that too but how can I tell if it will support to native Amiga mode?

It should be easy to connect LCD to any "graphics card equipped Amiga". You would need "TV LCD" to connect Amigas without scandoublers. Such LCDs have RCA connectors. (not really sure).
I'll buy Samsung 193p+ in a couple of days, so then I'll know for sure..
Better sorry than worry.

I thought the price at AmigaKit was rather expensive so I went to search on Ebay for the same monitor and found only one, which happened to be in the UK too, at THIS link, but this one costs even 10 GBP more !!! So it seems that AmigaKit can be pretty cheap in cases of new hardware  :lol:  (AmigaKit : no offense !!)

well, I'm kind of confused here. These TFT screens' video input is meant for a video or dvd-vcd player right ? so it's sort of like a tv. so it's got to be pal or ntsc ? am I right ? I'll be looking for something like this around here so I guess I better find one which supports pal.
