I might have a deal for a dirt cheap monitor with a composite input. Question is.. would I get colour or greyscale from the A1200 through componsite?

I've tried hooking it up to a TV and only received grey, but this was a PAL machine to an NTSC tv.

Anyone tried this with a computer monitor?


Ugh.. that was supposed to read composite. Can't edit the title


Theres probably a few exceptions, but Id imagine most likely it'll be color. As for the title of the thread, did you also notice you went half/half later in your post ? :)  (componsite)
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

Doom, heretic, quake, Simcity, simcity2000, napalm, onescapee, genetic species, dynamite, gloom3, earth2140, trapped, trapped2, payback, descent, descent2, freespace, nightlong, scummvm, shadow of the 3rd moon, F1 virtual gp, exodus and a bunch of others should hopefully keep you entertained for a while if youre restricted to system friendly software for the moment. Im not sure many people realise just how many games can used @31-ish khz, either via mode promotion, or just through a games inbuilt screenmode requestors.   :)

Yeah, unfortunately they will be slowet. Probably little more than 1/2 "normal" speed. Sucks a bit I guess considering a lot of the better games will be 3d.
I think genetic species needs the updates to work in non pal/ntsc modes too by the way.

Soliton is a pretty darn good version of solitare if you get desperate :)
