The 800 has @tf_hh's very nice SCCC, and it's connected to the monitor using the equally nice RetroTink 2K Pro ? There's a small issue with some light vertical bands on the display when using s-video that I'd like to fix eventually, but it looks fantastic otherwise, and obviously a huge improvement over using composite video on and old TV set... I still have to adjust the colors either on the 800 or the monitor - not sure which. And, of course, back to the topic of this thread: it'd be great if we could get sources for the eight-year-old SIO2SD configurator from "Pajero/MadTeam"!

You don't need SDX for SI224 - load it as you would any other Atari executable binary. As for your display; are you referring to the vertical bar in the middle? I don't know if that's normal on PAL, but someone else can certainly answer that easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Thanks again, yes I was referring to the vertical line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UAV video mod prevents this, but almost all stock Ataris will exhibit that line. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
