Re: Best LCD for IIGS

Thanks for the info. I picked up a CYP CM-345S (which does seem
exactly like the Highway 100 unit) and it all outputted ok using a
Scart cable modified to sync on composite (standard Vintageware seemed
to be stable but picture quality just not as good as sync on
composite).

That's what I discovered here as well. Other users (JS/MdntTrain) found that the stock wiring (mono --> sync, I believe) worked better. Must be some variation across different IIGS motherboards and/or converter boxes.

> Output (using 1024 by 768) was not bad and is very close
to what i got on Scart onto LCD (Samsung T200HD, but haven't got one
at the moment to really compare). Though i have only tested GS/OS and
a few games. So would recommend the unit if you are after something
acceptable. I managed to pick one of ebay for �46 :-), so not too
costly.

Not to mention that 640x480 interlaced NTSC from an Amiga 2000 looks drop-dead gorgeous through that box. It flickers so badly on a 15Khz. CRT monitor that I couldn't even look at it without getting a headache.
