Trying to get my Amiga(s) to display
« on: May 27, 2011, 05:29:30 AM »
Hey guys,

Getting back in to my Amiga after over a decade being away.

I went on an ebay rampage and bought an A1200, A3000 and XRGB-2 convertor.

I tried the SCART route w/Euro to Japan connector, but my Sony can't display the resolution output by the XRGB-2, from what I can tell.

I can get a clean signal going straight to PC input from the A3000 for the desktop, but so far no games I've loaded up will display. I've read elsewhere that's because the workbench displays differently, but am unclear on just what the difference is.

Any help on what sort of monitor or LCD to pick up would be awesome. Thanks!

The 3000 has a built-in scan doubler BTW.


Yeah, I bought the A1200 first. :) The A1200 is compact and quieter, so it would be cool to get it up and running eventually.

Anyway, the A3000 displays WB just fine to my LCD TV via PC input, but when I load games, it goes dark. Could that be a Pal issue? I haven't done extensive testing yet, but it didn't work with Flashback or Zool. I'm thinking I need a multi-sync LCD of some kind.

I heard Indivision is coming out with a new flicker fixer in a few months for the A1200.
