Re: Amiga Screen Modes



Oh I see, can I force to PAL? It seems on my A1200 it will always switch to NTSC after loading the kernel. Not sure if I do something wrong.

I have a question regarding the screen modes for Amiga native
OCS/ECS/AGA. What I read was that start option -A uses DblNTSC and I
guess without -A is uses simple NTSC?

-A enables AGA screen modes, which effectively also enables DblNTSC
which doesn't exist on OCS.


What about other modes like PAL or PAL-lace? Is this supported
somehow?

The default screen modes for the console are 640x400 for NTSC and
640x512 for PAL. Which means that a PAL or NTSC interlace screen mode
is selected automatically, unless you have an AGA machine and -A is
given. In the latter case DblPAL or DblNTSC is selected.
