The Intec is a VGA-compatible moniter that accepts analog or TTL-level input. This multiscan performed flawlessly when the Amiga was displaying a non-interlaced screen. An interlaced screen, however, showed an incredible amount of flicker, much worse than my 1080. Upon closer inspection of the CRT I realized that the odd and even frames were being SUPERIMPOSED on each other rather than being displaced by half of a scan line. Question: do any multiscan moniters correctly handle interlace, or is it just this particular brand that fails? Or am I doing something else wrong? The reason I'd like to get a multiscan is that I have to let go of my 1080, and I want a moniter that will work with my A1000 now and with any future Amiga I get that may have a higher-scanrate output (like a flicker-fixer or the enhanced chipset.)
