HELP Amiga CD32 and BVM-D20F1U SVideo show Black and White

Post by herbscottie »

Hey guys and gals, ive got my amiga cd32 hooked up to my bvm-d20f1u thru s video into the yc ports on my 24N. The picture comes thru but its only black and white. In the menu on the bvm it wont let me select YC PAL (its in blue). Does anyone know how to fix this? Do I need to get a mouse and get into setup and switch my cd32 to ntsc mode?

Thanks

The 24N is a NTSC only decoder board, so PAL sources would only show in b/w for both composite and s-video.

Ah dang, is there a board which supports svideo pal and ntsc? I think though if i get a mouse i can switch the amiga into ntsc mode but idk how that will affect certain games that are pal games :(

For the most part it stretches them out vertically. Not the end of the world.
This industry has become 2 dimensional as it transcended into a 3D world.
