Official Scandoubler
« on: January 28, 2015, 01:50:46 PM »
Is this the Official Scandoubler made by Commodore International, Amiga Technologies or by a modern company? Saw this on eBay and thought this looked fascinating. :p

The only Commodora built scandoubler, as far as I know, was the A2320 card.


Make your own case, buttons and equip it with an LED with this board installed then you have the official Commodore Scandoubler. WOW i want one of these :p

Hahahehe. I can see why installing an internal card into an external case is seen as a bit kooky. :biglaugh: Would it work though? I think it would. It would have no practical use but would be aesthetically pleasing to the Amiga Showoff :cool:
 
 Another question. Does the A2320 work on an Amiga 4000?

Know that it was made for the 2000 using ECS graphics but is there a solution to stop the doubled AGA screenmodes from messing up. :idea:

Someone on English Amiga Board said that 2 ECS Scandoubler's installed would create a 24 bit output therefore making it AGA compatible. Would do you think? Thanks.
