I don´t know this product, but it seems to be only for NTSC (US) Amigas. PAL Amigas have 50 Hz display which may (or rather not) work on current LCD displays (which support 60 Hz).

Do I get more color depth or still limited to 256 colors? |
Pure ScanDoubler is not GFX card, it will not give you more colours than you have now. (note some Indivision models have some features of GFX cards, again, I have no experience with these). |

Thanks. Listing says will work with both Pal and NTSC but there are some questionable claims others have called out. |

This looks like a newer version of the one I bought on E Bay UK a few years ago. I have used this on my A 4000's without any problems, on a 19 inch Benq LCD screen . Also on a B2000 and a towered A 1200. ( All PAL machines. )
Hope this helps. John. |

I have the latest version. It supports PAL and NTSC. The video quality is OK. Sometimes there is noise artifacting (digital) but nothing that detracts from your gaming experience. Not bad for the price and since it uses Amiga's the 23 pin RGB port you can use it on most of the Amiga products. Plus it has enough features such as an onscreen menu that helps you adjust the screen position and resolution to best suit your TV/LCD panel.

Drewlio's post answers this ! I have no problems with text or images either. Also, it is most useful if you have more than one Amiga - I forgot to mention that it also works fine on my A 4000 Tower ( Escom ) as well ! |
