Re: New video output system

It provides an 8-pin DIN RGB socket with the same pinout as the existing one on the QL, but with SCART-legal 0.7v levels instead of TTL 5v levels. It fits in the 8301 socket, then the 8301 plugs into it. It's designed so people who want to use a modern TV or upscaler to a modern TV have more input ...

Re: New video output system

Hi all, While I rework the 4M RAM card to make some improvements, I have also been working on a new video output system for the QL, in light of people's problems with the original video system.

Re: Getting My QL working - what to do .....

Thanks for response, I actually found another QL in my loft which looks newer but the ribbon cable to motherboard is done and came apart when I opened it.
