- But if the TV set has a composite video input, Fredrik mentions
- the SCART connector in his original article, wouldn't the TV
- work with an XEP80?
-
- I mean, the Atari ST and the Amiga both display 640x200
- pixel modes on TV sets, this resolution approximately
- corresponds to the 80x25 character mode in the XEP80. I
- don't think older colour monitors (for Atari 800, C64 etc)
- are different from TV sets with R/G/B and composite video
- input.
