 I would like to know *what* a scandoubler can do better than A520 with composite video output (in Amiga's present situation).


You are kidding..........right?  

Composite output is terrible compared to any scan doubled/flicker fixed display I have seen from any Amiga.

Maybe for a few games it doesn't make any difference, but for most games and everything else, composite is $h!tty, bad, nasty, unacceptable, crap.

@AmigaKit,

Please bring at least one of these to AmiWest 2008 and I will buy it for sure.

Looks great and from the specs quoted, it may just be the best scandoubler/flicker fixer ever produced for the Amiga.  I wonder if it fits in the A4000(T) as well?

OK - added to the Amiwest list :-)

It is the most advanced scandoubler/ff ever produced for the Amiga- it should work on the A4000T (not desktop) - however, we need confirmation from Jens first.


It would also be good to know if the new scandoubler will fit on an A4000D mobo installed inside a PowerTower case.  If/when you contact Jens, please inquire about that possibility as well.

If Jens wants to send me one of the units for testing the fitting clearances, I will be happy to do such testing for him.  :-D

That was clearly stated by Jens on his first announcement. Indivision 1200 can't work inside an 4000D! Next A4000D version will be made if boards will sell and funds will raise :)

Check page number 4 :D


Thanks for the clarification.  I am really lazy about going back through threads to read every page.

It looks like the funds to start on the A4000 version should not be a problem, as there appears to be a lot of interest and pre-ordering going on in this thread.

I just hope that AmigaKit will have at least one Indivision 24bit Flicker Fixer left from their initial order, or that a second production run will be completed prior to Oct. so they will have more to take to the AmiWest show.  I have too many other financial obligations right now to order one out of this first group of stock.  It appears that they are selling very fast.

Has anyone thought about fitting it into the CD32?

Probably won't fit, but worth a thought.

Now that I have decided to sell my last CD32, it won't matter to me.
