- The Amiga RGB port expects to have a monitor connected there. If it does not,
- the analog RGB values are a little off. Doesn't really matter unless you're
- using a Video Toaster, which requires very stable Amiga video levels and timing
- in order to function properly when keying, for example. The RGB terminator
- they're talking about is just that: a 23-pin monitor connector with (4) 75 ohm
- resistors connected across R, G, B, and CSync to ground, to properly terminate
- the Amiga's analog output circuitry when you do not have a monitor connected
- there, but to a flicker-fixer or FFV card, for example. You can make one
- yourself, or purchase one from your local dealer.
