Im sure Im not the 1st person to do this, but Im getting a kick out of it right now, so I thought Id share with y'all
.
Having discovered my old multisynch monitor had died since Id last had a working amiga I was forced to use an ol 1084 monitor when I ginally got an a1200 again recently. It works, so it'll do I thought. After a while the flickering of interlaced screenmodes really started to get to me, but I have no flicker fixer/scan doubler/etc. I also have a old 22 inch crt monitor that Im pretty fond of that I wanted to use with my a1200. I expected to have to shell out for an indivision aga or similar, which I'd have happily done, but then I had the idea of connecting the 22 inch crt monitor as a secondary screen to my Windows machine (which is on 24/7) and plugging my a1200 into the tv tuner card of that machine, and outputting that image to the second monitor (the screen I wanted). An hour or so tweaking things later and Im happily using my a1200 on my 22 inch monitor, flicker free with out any additional amiga hardware
