Dell 2407wfp and A1200 on composite in.

Similar problems on other Dell screens (they must use the same composite/s-video tuner).

Thread on Dell forum

"My digital camera and DVD-player work without any problems, but when I connect my old trusty C64 to it (tried both Composite and S-Video), I don't get any display.
The signal is PAL (50hz), resolution is 320x240.
When I connect my Commodore Amiga to the 2007FP (Composite), I only get a display when I switch to NTSC and when I select a resolution above 640x200.
Since I bought the 2007FP in Europe, it *should* be able to handle PAL video-input."

Thats normal.

No, it isn't. Most LCD displays with composite or s-video inputs (e.g. Samsung) have no problems displaying C64 or Amiga video signals. So far I have only seen this problem on the latest Dell LCDs, so it is most likely due to the tuner model they use.
Also note that in the above link, it is said that the older 2005WFP-model doesn't have any of these problems.

define better what do you mean with this sentence?

Simply that there isn't any problem displaying C64 or Amiga composite signals using the composite input on those LCDs. Other devices, like the PS1, work as well (resolution being lower than the "FULL compliant broadcast resolution PAL or NTSC standard" that you quoted). Only the Dell's seem to have this problem.

we are still speaking about Composite input?

Sure.
