#Video Boards
Hi Daniel,
To quote from the OpalVision manual:
"Warning: Never plug a monitor into the standard 23-pin Amiga Video Port
while an OpalVision card is installed in your Amiga. This may overload
the output circuitry in your Amiga and cause permanent damage."
Now in reality I think this only applies to simultaneous use of two
monitors, but the warning says never do it, at any time. I tried hooking
up a monitor to the 23-pin port only with the Opal card installed and the
display was very dim. Note I didn't have two monitors hooked up at the
same time.
If it wasn't for the great software included with this board, I would say
a Picasso II, Spectrum, etc would be a better choice. (That is if you can
get NTSC video out of them, which I am not sure).
Hope it helps.
