Indivision and VGA projectors
«

I mentioned this in a thread in the software forum, but it belongs here.
I bought an Indivision for my 1200. One of the main reasons was I wanted to be able to use it with projectors that have VGA inputs so I could do visual stuff at clubs etc. It works fine with VGA monitors (both CRT and LCD - unlike older ones that don't work well with LCDs). I assumed it'd work fine on a projector. After trying it on both a Dell and a Benq projector, I couldn't get it to work. The Dell said "out of range" and the Benq just didn't see the signal. These are both nice new projectors. Fortunately the Dell could handle both NTSC and PAL so I was able to use PAL composite to do the projections.
Any ideas why a VGA projector wouldn't work with the signal from Indivision? I tried both PAL and NTSC screenmodes. At one point it showed the Amiga screen briefly while still having a Dell logo and "out of range" error overlaid... then it went back to a plain error screen.

Is there an official support site for the Indivision? Don't see any mention of it on the Individual Computer site.

I'm using whatever you get if you drop an Indivision out of the box onto an NTSC motherboard, power on, use the boot menu to select PAL, and have WorkBench configured for high res (I tried both regular and interlaced).

The manual didn't really say much on it except that the defaults are what you posted. I'm probably not going to be using the Indivision with a projector any time in the forseeable future, but if anybody else is trying it, I guess you'll need to play around with it until it works.
