This is crap, Wade.  The artifact you're seeing (I assume you've
actually LOOKED at a flickerFixer) has nothing to do with fF, it's the
Amiga.  Put your stock Amiga with 1080 monitor in interlace mode
and it does the same thing.  You might not notice it because of all
the flickering, but it's there.  All flickerFixer does is stop the
display from flickering, and now you can notice the "motion split."

Think of it like playing a scratched LP through a close-and-play toy
vs playing it through a state-of-the-art sound system.  The scratches
will show up a lot better on the latter, since it is so faithful in
reproducing what's there.
