08.02.19 e configurazione amiga

[gkralicek2]

@zolive59 Modifying the content of config.txt is not very recommended especially when selecting a mode that will force 50Hz on emulation station by default. Many LCD PC monitors (unlike TVs) won't properly lock 50 Hz resulting in black screen on emulation station after rebooting as far as not everyone is using Recalbox on a TV set.
Having tried myself a few amiga games with the latest recalbox version and Pi3, i didn't need to tweak anything in the config files to get games to be executed properly with correct speed and decent scrollings. Just my two cents though...

@gkralicek2 beware, you're a blind person and a fool with crap in your eyes

@voljega yeah i probably am

Just add a amiga.videomode=... with the right CEA/DMT mode. You can even set some hdmi_cvt

[voljega]

@substring amiberry doesn't handle it for now I'm afraid

[Substring]

@voljega it's not amiberry that handles it, it's configgen

[voljega]

@substring hmmm ok then

are you sure it's not amiga600.videomode and amiga1200.videomode though ?

@gkralicek2 I recommend this change only for TVs / monitors that accept the 50Hrz format, because it is not possible to change the C64 and Amiga emulators via the recalbox options (same retropy)
The other emulators will remain in 60hrz format, no worries.

it does not work on my raspberry 3.

@gkralicek2 Experience the Amiga emulator (scrolling) and C64 at home, in 50hrz , you'll see this huge difference.
I have something else to do than convince you, just: test by yourself.

@zolive59 I just tested on my CRT TV in both 60 Hz and 50 Hz and i don't see much of a difference in the execution of scrollings (honnestly). I tried with great Giana sisters using the scrolling title and what i get at 60 Hz is similar to what is shown in the video @50 Hz you published a bit above. You can have a look here if you wish : https://youtu.be/cxaTxzuW5eA (if you put side by side both of the videos and play them at 720p, you'll see there is no obvious difference). Neither your video @50 or mine @60 give a "butter smooth"result anyway (which is somewhat normal considering the fact youtube encoding alters the output result) but all in all it's pretty decent.
I really think the end result dépends on the TV or Monitor used and the quality of their electronic components (upconverters, up/down samplers, etc...). Some of them will display s**tty results @60Hz, some other @50Hz. It seems really difficult to define a constant truth valid for all the situations. One has to try and choose what gives the best results. If some get better monitor response out from a 50 Hz signal, that's ok, if others prefer what they see at 60Hz, let it be this way :=)

@voljega yes it is
