I'm sure this question has been asked many times before..
..We now live in a word of LCD dispay etc ...and sadly I dont own a CRT monitor..
So how do you guys display your VICs if you also dont own CRTs ?
Is it best to try and locate an LCD with RF input ?
or are there mods that can be done to the VIC to enable a reasonable image to be displayed by composite out ?
Yes I can use a monitor with RCA input but the picture isn't great having lots of digital noise and vertical and swirling lines overlayed on the image..

Re: Image display on non CRT
The video out provides composite out by default. You can do a mod to s-video. Don't bother with rf.
Re: Image display on non CRT
I have a small LCD TV and use the composite input. The picture probably isn't as good as with s-video but it's fine for genera use (and far better that with a CRT connected via the modulator).
Re: Image display on non CRT
S video looks to be the best option ...
I will probably go down that route.
many thanks

It does have a S-Video input.
Be normal.
Re: Image display on non CRT
LCD TVs provide a far more stable picture, especially for PAL there 50 Hz CRTs were flickering quite a bit.
