LCD TVs/Monitors
« on: April 02, 2006, 11:00:23 PM »
Well my Commodore 1942 has just given up the ghost, so I'm after getting a new monitor for my A1200.

I know there was a thread on here a little while back about using and LCD TV on the amiga for games.  As I don't have a graphics card, I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with LCD TVs, and how well Workbench and applications are displayed with them through an Amiga RGB to Scart adapter?  I only really use PAL: Hires for Workbench and Hires Interlaced for a few apps such as Ibrowse.  Would the picture be as sharp as on my old Commodore 1942?

_yak_:  Yeh I saw that picture of the LCD, looks good for running games, just wondered how well they would handle higher resolution screens in workbench.

Effy:  Would like an external scadoubler, just they are so expensive, and I've heard they don't show HAM8 with all the colours?

Also I've noticed some LCD monitors (not TVs) have S-video in, would these work with the amiga?

Motorollin:  Yeh it looks good through your Voodoo, have you tried workbench in AGA to see how well it looks though?  (I got no GFX card for my A1200 :( )
