Are you talking about using an Amiga RGB-SCART cable into the LCD telly?

If you have any more info or (even better!) some pics of such a setup in action that would be great...

From my gallery:

It's a great solution!

How do interlaced modes (ie: PAL Hires Laced) look?

Sorry I don't know. I never tried them and no longer use this screen.

Trouble is locating one of these screens... They look to be a generic/OEM screen... Wonder if they're sold under other names?

This particular one was, IIRC, manufactured specifically for ASDA. There are lots of them about though.

LCD Telly...

It looks like it would, since it has both VGA and SCART inputs. You should check the min/max refresh rates though.

It would probably cost as much to send it as it would to buy one in Aus... but I can find out a price if you want.

Hey, why not? I'd be looking at around $AU250 for one here and that's for one that may not even work on my A1200!

Ok, I'll package it up and get a price for you as soon as I can. If you don't hear from me in a couple of days, PM me to remind me as TBH there's a risk I'll forget ;-)

P.S. Why do you look so bored in your avatar/pic? :-)

I was reading a particularly boring chapter on (IIRC) psycho-linguistic accounts of disordered grammar. Interesting area, boring book...

@moto,

That book of yours sound like a rivetting read... ZZZzzz...

:-)

Well, as I said it's an interesting topic. I'm interested in pretty much all aspects of language, particularly impaired language. But that particular book was very, very dull ;-)

Any luck on the shipping price for the LCD  to Oz?

Inevitably, I forgot ;-) I have just put it in its box and it's quite heavy. I weighed it and got a quote to send to Aus, and they want about £100, which is about $AU225!

Postage from the UK is so expensive these days...
