You can get the backdrop from Cammy's Amiga Christmas Tree website http://amigachristmastree.condor.serverpro3.com/index2008.html

Please excuse my GUI theme, it's a bit mixed up at the moment while I experiment with a few things.

 I don't excuse you! Only if you send me the original model for it.

 It is really Cammy? OK! Sorry.

 I demand you to send me the model!

On a serious note: don't know if the model is available outside China/America: Fujilink A1901TV (19" LCD) or even the A1901W (wide screen). Works without a scandoubler.

*cough* perv Just kidding if you bother to read that, I have Samus Aran as my backdrop so i can't really talk about yours being of Cammy.

There is a good reason why these LCD's are so cheap, it's called component quality (or the lack of in this case). Somethimes it's worth spending a few quid more on something with a proper name and that is genrally of a better quality.

Since it came from Aldi's, it really doesn't surprise me it isn't a good monitor. =/

P.s. @ Cammy, as for your back-drops, rather nice but I don't think my fiancée would approve me using it on any of my machines.

Well, as for the Dell one I linked to...

It arrived today & will not accept S-Video via Amigamaniac adaptor or any composite input, be it from native RCA, Amigamaniac adaptor, A520 or DCTV.

So, don't bother

Hi Fingers, did you try setting Workbench into Interlace mode and see if it works in your monitor? Some LCD TVs won't accept non-interlaced S-Video signals.

Nah Cammy, but I might try that later.

However, would this then mean that games won't display on it?

No matter though, as at least for now I've swapped it with a TV that works.

Ok, so I gave it a shot with laced screen & it works...even displayed when I ran a WHDLoad installed game...BUT...BIG BUT...the screen cuts out every few seconds.

I don't mean shudders either like those TVs, but it goes completely blank for a second or two, so no good.

So, this monitor is actually fantastic as a display for my Indivisionised A1200 or even the CD32, but useless for anything else
