PAL A1200 on NTSC TV
« on: December 07, 2005, 08:33:55 PM »
If I change the setting in the early startup screen to NTSC, will it work on a US TV connected with a composite cable?

IIRC the colorburst is all wrong on the chromanence line so you'll get a black and white image.  If you can find an old A520 RF modulator from an A500 that will work with your A1200.

I won't have that problem with an NTSC motherboard then right?
