Hi all, are there any monitors that will work straight out of the box with the amiga computer?
preferably a flat screen? I may be wrong but i could swear that some of the NEC Multisyncs where compatible (if im right?) but cant seem to recall which one(s)?

TIA

There are many posts about that topic.
To give you example, I have one, by Dell model # SR2320L work fine in NTSC and PAL 50/60HZ. Has 3 inputs, HDMI, DVI and VGA, so I'm using the DVI for my PC and VGA for A1200. Got it for $130.
Very nice monitor.

Or use a video-to-scart cable and hook it to a 2nd hand TFT tv with scart entry

Do you mean at both 15 and 31KHz?

even the ancient Nec 3D I used to have did not to the 15Khz (but was brilliant with my FF)... I agree with Effy, just get a cheap tele with scart.

Thats what i have at the moment but its only a 14" but i want something bigger, i have the VGA adapter so would love to use a monitor instead.

So with one of those SCART TV's will you be able to display in HAM modes and Super Hi-Res and such without Pixel flicker?

I had the Dell (which is broken now) and I was limited to what modes I could display in. Super Hi-Res always looked like crap.

XDelusion : I honestly don't know how Ham modes will look like when you use a scart cable, it just seems like a simple and cheap solution to connect your Amiga to a TFT tv with scart entry. The other cheap solution is to use a vga connector and hook it up to any giant TFT and use the screenmode DoublePAL Hires Noflicker, I used that for myself years ago when I got internet broadband with a 19" CRT display, worked like a charm but not extremely fast as that DoublePal screenmode . If you happen to have a rca video output that displays colors then you can still hook up an old RGB monitor that way so you'll always have a working screen ... not really the best option but maybe the cheapest ... just my humble two cents ...

You really should get bigger LCD-tv, not a monitor if you don't want to buy flickerfixer also.

I've 19" lcd tv, picture is rock solid

The only NEC is an old CRT model, 3D that will sync from 15 to 38 - has great color, BUT is only 14"....
