You must be joking! Get your facts, dude. Broadcast television suffers the SAME flicker problems that the Amiga shows with images that have 1 scanline tall horizontal lines. This is simply due to the NTSC standard. The flicker on TV is very noticeable during the sports and weather reports. Images that have a lot of color variations don't flicker (on either a broadcast TV or the Amiga) because the eye "averages" the colors. -- Marco Papa 'Doc' -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= uucp:...!pollux!papa BIX:papa ARPAnet:pollux!papa@oberon.usc.edu "There's Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Diga!" -- Leo Schwab [quoting Rick Unland] -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
