Hi,
sorry for starting all this fuss.

This is a bit offtopic:
after some surfing, I found this model interesting: Samsung 173p.
Its very expensive, but has good specs (700:1, 178/178!). The only trouble is that it is buttonless, needs software for changing brightness and other parameters.
There is a "catch", it can automatically adjust screen. So maybe I could start Deluxe Paint, make totaly black picture and then make it auto adjustment to get brighter (darker?) image for work?

Can you reccomend me some better TFT monitor for Picasso IV?
(preferably 17")

Most of the TFTs say that lowest resolution is 640x480, can thay display Amigas 320x256 at all?
Better sorry than worry.

Even if you reconfigure the flickerfixer to 60 Hz (or something else) to make PAL/NTSC work on your LCD, you still won't be able to see the early startup menu (because the P-IV hasn't initialized yet).
I'm speaking from personal experience here....

It will come in from the early startup menu. Speaking from personal experience here.

I played around with this this morning, and it seems that I can't set PAL to less than 55Hz and NTSC to less than 64Hz. Anything less goes to some crazy 100-300Hz mode, that my TFT can't display. :-)

(yes, the best refresh rates it gave me were around 300Hz according to the TFT's OSD)
