Now I want to connect the A1200 to my monitor which has 2 HDMI ports and I'm stuck between two options.  I'm going to be installing a Pistorm32-Lite using a Raspberry Pi 3B. I can output Workbench through HDMI to the first HDMI port on my monitor.  For Games I researched two options.

The first option is to use a OSCC and a RGB to SCART connector, and output the signal from the RGB port on the Amiga to my monitor. using the second HDMI port.

The second option is to install a Indivision AGA Mk3 and output this to the second HDMI port.

Just to butt in; The PiStorm folks have just released the FrameThrower for OCS/ECS Amigas. It sucks the display frames from Denise and sends them to the Pi's camera port where the Emu68 Videocore driver picks them up and displays them out the same HDMI as the RTG workbench.

However the A1200 version isn't available yet but should be in a couple or three months.

FWIW I have an RGB to Scart to OSSC which gets me RGB Graphics out to my HDMI monitor. It wasn't super cheap (FrameThrower will be super cheap) but it works just fine for now.
