- Em, no, the Picasso has a video pass through just like the CV64. You
- connect the output from the Amiga to an input on the Picasso. If your
- monitor cannot display 15kHz. then you will still have to have your old
- monitor around for this. To get a non-15kHz monitor to display Amiga
- screenmodes, you need to buy a flicker fixer and loop the output into
- the graphics card. A lead should be included for this.
