REQUIREMENTS:
- The MIPrefs-program from aminet/util/misc/MonSpecsMUI.lha
- DBLPal-monitor-driver from AmigaOS3.1 (OS3.9 works also)
DESCRIPTION:
For some years I've been using DBLPAL Highres
No Flicker 720x564 thanx to some hacks I found on
Aminet. I thought this was the absolute maximum.
But recently I happend to chat with a dude on a
Swedish Amiga IRC-channel. He said that he'd got
738x566 with help of a program named 'PatchOverscan',
also found on Aminet.
I tried that, but I didn't
succeed to get that view. It made it possible 2 change
the overscan limits of NOMINAL MAXIMUM and VIDEO to
whatever values. I donno, I maybe did something wrong :P
Anyway, then I found a program named 'MonSpecsMUI'
also on Aminet, similar to MonED, that gives access to
monitorsettings and also overscanlimits and much more.
I increased the overscanlimits so I could later
increase text-overscan in SYS:Prefs/Overscan further.
I used 'Save and quit'-button in the MonSpecsMUI-
program.
I put this two lines somewhere after IPrefs in my
S:Startup-Sequence
SYS:Prefs/Overscan USE
MIPrefs
Then I executed SYS:Prefs/Overscan and maximized the
text-overscan to the limits I sat earlier with the
MonSpecsMUI-program. Then I saved the new Overscan
prefs and Rebooted.
After that I got a 825x564 Workbench Screen
Perhaps it's possible 2 stretch it some more.
I don't know :)
It works fine for me but and I should work for you but...
I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMEGES CAUSED BY THIS SOFTWARE
OR BY THE INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS!
INSTALLATION:
Copy all the files in DblPal_ME/ to your Sys: respective directories
and keep the VGAOnly and VGAOnly.info in your Sys:Devs/Monitors/
Maybe it works, but I havn't test without it.
Copy the file 'MIPrefs' to C: from the 'MonSpecsMUI.lha'-archive that
can be found on Aminet.
Make a backup of your old files before if you think you'll need them
in the future. Copy them to a any place you prefer.
Put this lines in your S:Startup-Sequence somewhere after IPrefs
SYS:Prefs/Overscan USE
MIPrefs
The MIPrefs-program comes from 'MonSpecsMUI.lha' on Aminet. It's not
included in this archive so you have to download it yourselfe.
It's needed!
Then just reboot.
If it's not working for any strange reason, please read the manuals
of MonSpecsMUI and MIPrefs.
Good luck!
