i am using MagicTV (Software flickerfixer) @ 16 colors
Hmmm, I wonder how it works? All I can think of is it uses interlaced screens but reduces flicker by clever use of colours between fields.
Yes, something like this, i think. It doesn't actually reduce flicker, it makes it less perceivable.
I wonder if there's a good reason behind this 16 colors limitation...
You could of course use a PC monitor and use VGA monitor definition. That would give you 256 colours. You'll need a 23-pin to 15 pin adapter dongle. Of course this is workbench only, games would not work.
Interesting. I have 2 questions about it:
Is this dongle considered an Amiga specific adapter?
Why it doesn't work with games? Because they work at 15khz horizontal frequency and VGA monitors can't handle it or is it something else? If this is the issue, aren't there any special VGA monitors that can handle this frequency?
