I have tried a Commodore dongle (works just fine for my A1200), a custom built one I found out on Aminet (worked fine when hooked up to the CBM 1902 I have for my C128D)

It doesn't sound like those adapters you are using are scan doublers rather they are just the 23 pin RBG to 15 pin VGA adapter.  A scan double has, some what complicated, electronics in it that take the 15khz singnal and convert it to 31khz (some models de-interlace the signal as well and are known as a flicker fixer in the Amiga world).

Can't remeber if the ECS denise will let you do 31khz, if it does I'm pretty sure you max out at 4 colors.  Or was that just Super-Hires the Denise did with 4 colors @ 15khz?  God I'm getting old.  Someone here will know.

Back in my day, we didn\'t have water. We only had Oxygen and Hydrogen, and we\'d just have to shove them together.
