Picasso II Video Card questions
« on: December 30, 2011, 11:34:02 PM »
I am buying a Picasso II Video Card for my A4000T. I understand it has two video ports on it, one being a pass-thru port. I am not quite understanding the pass-thru port.

I plan on connecting the A4000T to a Toshiba TIMM Monitor which I understand has a max 800x600 video on it.

All I am familiar with so far on the A4000T is the stock video port connected to a A1080 Monitor.

So, what resolution can I pump out to the Toshiba TIMM using this Picasso II card? Can it handle the 800x600 or will I get flicker at this higher resolution?

What port on the Picasso II do I connect the TIMM to to maximise its use?

Maybe someone can explain the videop options I will now have when I use the Picasso and at the same time, does Workbench 3.1 work fine with Picasso II or do I need to install some drivers?

Stevee617 got it right...
to add, YES, you need picasso drivers added (remind me at the next meet)
This adds rtg to the amiga.

Will do.  8-)

The only video cable I currently own is the one going from the A4000T stock video port to the A1080 monitor.  

So I take it I need to buy one more cable?

And what is the cable I own currently considered?

Need to make sure I understand Amiga video cables better.

Thanks
