[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] A520 & A3000: do they work together

davids@ucscf.UCSC.EDU (Dave Schreiber) (04/21/91)

I've got an early 3000 and new a VCR, and was wondering if the A520
(the RGB->NTSC converter) will work with my machine.  I once heard a
rumor that it wouldn't, and I'd like to get this rumor denied/confirmed
before I buy the box.  Thanks.

there's no reason that it shouldn't work, as long as you don't use any
magic ECS modes (ie, stick to modes that screen mode preferences lists
as NTSC/genlockable).
