Not via scart, I don't know of any LCD TV that will display those modes via Scart.

You could install MagicTV to get non-flickr higher res.


Don't like MagicTV as it has to be 16 colors. Shame my LCD TV does not flicker fix.

I just made some custom backdrops to check out at a resolution of 640x256@16 colors based on Rebel's palette and his awesome skins for VisualPrefs/Birdie.
The system I used was Bloodwych's ClassicWB Full based on Workbench 3.1












I kept the proportion to 640x512 to be able to see it better here... (just to get the picture)




With a High-Laced (interlaced) resolution of 640x512 you can have a lot better results (like a test one bellow from my A600 with ClassicWB 3.9)...

Here is my 640x512 WB with 256 colors. With FBlit/FText it is quite usable. Just wondering, last time I used FBlit and FText I used to have almost all chip ram free??? I might be wrong??

My desktop A1200 has a slim CD-rom and PCMCIA WLan card in left side.

Second picture show my "retro corner" with 2 amigas.
