- PAL & NTSC
-
- The two programs PAL and NTSC can be used to switch your screen from either
- of the two modes. This assumes that you are equipped with the new
- FATTERAGNUS chip.
-
- Prior to the development of this chip, Commodore made two versions of AGNUS,
- one for the European market(PAL version), and one for the US market (NTSC
- version). The new FATTERAGNUS encorporates both modes and can be switched
- between modes.
-
- Many of the Euro Demo programs require PAL mode to run, and the PAL program
- was derived from one of these demos. The program NTSC is a hack of my own.
-
- To use:
-
- Copy PAL and NTSC to your c directory. The command 'PAL' will switch your
- screen to PAL mode, and the command 'NTSC' will switch you back.
-
- Two other useful switching programs are available on GENIE:
-
- PALCON.LZH Switches to PAL mode on next Warm Boot.
- SWITCHINSTALL.LZH Puts a PAL Boot Block on a Floppy Disk.
-
- Have fun,
