Description: I went in to ASDA wondering if they had a decent LCD TV, one with both SCART and VGA inputs. I found a 15" one for £169 and bought it. It was branded "Dual" and the model number is DLCD1501. 1024x768 from my Voodoo looks great, but I was initially a little bit disappointed with the SCART display as it looked in a way too good - you could see every pixel and it was a bit blocky, whereas on a TV it looks a bit softer. Then I found that the SCART input has an optional sharpening filter which was enabled. I set it to normal, and instantly games looked much softer. I would definitely recommend this screen for Amiga users who have a graphics card and want a monitor to display all screenmodes, and also those who are looking for a cost-effective solution for the scandoubler problem. The only problem is that you have to manually switch from VGA to AV with the remote, but it's a small inconvenience. This shot shows the screen displaying Workbench from my Voodoo.

ptek Posts:328 | December 27, 2006, 01:55:01 PM Is the Workbench display clear as if connected to a normal computer monitor? That is, a computer (even a PC) connected to it will display a clear and crisp picture as any other CTR/LCD monitor ? |
weirdami Posts:3776 | August 27, 2006, 08:27:22 PM That name "dual" is a marketing cheat. Like, "you can have a dual display on your computer!" or "my computer has a dual display". It's like making people think you're getting two monitors but you're not really. Sorta like how some 19" monitors have a case that extends 3 inches from the edge of the screen so they call it 19", but it's really a 12" monitor. |
