Hi all,
I have a C64 3D card running via a video switcher with all of the appropriate drivers installed and unfortunatly the cards output, when switched to the screen, is noticibly darker than the video signal from the standard amiga chipset+scan doubler and im wondering if there is a way to "brighten up" the C64 3D output, preferbly in software. I can't adjust the montior since the Amiga shares the monitor with other PC's (And the standard amiga video signal from the scan doubler) where the pictures are much brighter, and setting the monitor to show the C64 3D card at a reasnoble level results in the PC + scandoubler images being far too bright.
Aside from that, is the "enforcer" software really needed for the C64 3D card when running on particular systems? Or is it just a fancy error reporting tool for debugging purposes?
Thanks,
Hodginson.

Hi,
you can put some new capacitor and change the output resistors to lower value.

The brightness depends also on the modes used; doublescan (lower resolutions) is brighter than normal modes. Also the used pixel clock may have an effect.
