Hi!
I've been using a RGB-VGA converter and long VGA cable to pass through my PicassoII, it works but its a messy solution... I think they made nice short pass through cables but I can't find anything on the usual sites, does anyone have one they'd like to sell me? ;)
Cheers :thumbsup:
Fitz.
something like this ??

I thought perhaps they made these as passthrough cables for people with RTG cards, but it looks like perhaps normal VGA leads were used and connected to a flicker fixer instead.

they were indeed short vga cables to go between the rtg and a flicker fixer, but why not make your own dude?
i'm sure the pin outs exist for vga and the 23 pin miggy video (what's the worst that could happen?)

Can you make it with a Hammer? :whistle:
Seriously though I'm useless, however though I do have old cables I could use, maybe I'll pluck up the guts and do it. :thumbsup:

Pinouts on the very same site, BTW.;)
why not get that cable then get an RGB to VGA dongle, they are expencive but I bet someone round here has one going spare, did`t your A4000 come with one ??
I all ready have such a lead that u are after, amiga RGB to VGA with short lead but I`m using it to connect my 1942 monitor :)
