Might sound silly, but be sure not to use the Mono output if you are doing this on a A500 with a A520 adapter :) (since the mono port aint any fun on a Hifi system)

Yeah, a buzzing video signal isn't much fun to listen to. Better connect the mono connector to a black and white monitor instead.


Why would I put a Mono INPUT to a B/W Monitor? Nothing would happen.

There isn't one.


Im not talking about any video output.
Im talking about a mono input.
It will do you no good to put any cable from there to your HiFi input.

video modulator
allows TV sets to display Amiga graphics
provides a standard UHF RF output as well as a standard composite video output
three RCA connectors:
RF output
colour composite output
mono audio input - connected to the stereo Amiga output with an Y-cable
channel selector switch
atrocious video quality
PAL and NTSC versions

I think you are missing the point. ;)


I usually do ;) Tho I think you ment he said Output but it was a Input ;)

Tho Jope said it was a Monocrome video output and it's not :P Or he might have been sarcastic, I got no clue im a bit slow today ;)

I think you need to take another look at the back of an A500...

And at an A520.

And at my quote.

 ;)


;O Now I have to crawl to the cross, I went over to my A500 and guess what, in my head something went wrong ;) It is a MONO audio input in the A520 BUT it's not labeled MONO, but there is a mono video output on the A500 :P

So I take it all back and next time ill be more careful before using my typing fingers ;)
