I was still a bit confused so I went back to previous issues of AmigaWorld
and Amazing Computing. This is what I understand from articles there.
The standard AMIGA graphics modes (BAGA – before AGA) display at a
horizontal scan rate of 15.75 KHz. Certain display enhancers such as the
Flicker Fixer double the horizontal scan rate to 31.5 KHz. With a Flicker
Fixer ALL of the AMIGA graphics modes go through the FF to display 400
lines at 31.5 KHz. If you want to use a flicker fixer AND be able to go
back to the standard AMIGA RGB output you need a multisync that will scan
from 15.75 KHz up to 31.5 KHz.
I'm still a little uncertain about a BridgeBoard/VGA output. I know it can
be used with the same multisync monitor as a flicker fixer but I'm not sure
what scan rate or what type of input is needed on the monitor. Can anyone
shed any light on this?
