NTSC4NTSC 2.0
=============
This nice litte patch forces NTSC-screens (screen which are smaller than
maximal NTSC-overscan) to use 60Hz even on PAL-Amigas. PAL-Screen (even on
NTSC-Amigas) open in 50Hz. So you always get the correct refresh rate. It
also makes all screens open in full blown new look if you wish. If you use
the AA-Chipset you can "promote" interlace screens in order to avoid
flickering.
NTSC4NTSC has six commandline switches: STDPAL, STDNTSC, USEAUTO,
FORCENTSC, NEWLOOK and PROMOTE.
STDPAL and STDNTSC are mutually exclusive. They determine which ScreenMode
should be used for screens which request "standard"-height. If you don't
specify one of them you will get a requester which asks for the preferred
screenmode for such screens. USEAUTO converts Screens which are too high
for NTSC into autoscroll-screens instead of PAL-screens. If a program
insits on getting a PAL-screen it will get one if you don't use FORCENTSC.
If you use it _all_ screens will be converted to NTSC. This option implies
STDNTSC and USEAUTO. NEWLOOK enables the 2.0 new look for all screnns by
setting the SA_PENS-Tag. PROMOTE converts all screenmodes to their "dbl"-
equivalents.
In brief:
STDPAL use PAL for standard-height screens
STDNTSC use NTSC for standard-height screens
USEAUTO use AUTOSCROLL instead of PAL
FORCENTSC override scrennmode, always use NTSC
NEWLOOK get NEWLOOK screens
PROMOTE use mode promotion
NTSC4NTSC can be aborted with CTRL-C! If you need more information please
write me a mail and/or take a look at the Source.
If some programs don't work if you are using NTSC4NTSC then try to run
NTSC4NTSC.debug and send me the debug information. I'll try to fix the
bug.
