Funkatron (Ed Finkler)Got the Commodore Plus/4 running last night. I could use an RGB monitor cable if you have one :)
Putting together a new exec summary on the Plus/4 vs the Mac Studio M2 Ultra that it sits facing in my basement
Matthew Sparby@funkatron I’m afraid you’re limited to Composite or Luma/Chroma (Svideo) on the Plus 4.
@Cloudscout That explains it.
I have what may be a Sega MD DIN->composite/stereo cable that seems to work fine here. Only uses the bottom 5(?) pins. The monitor has a 9-PIN in, a composite in, and a mono audio in.
Blake Patterson@funkatron The Plus/4 does not support RGB out. The best it offers is chroma/luma sep (s-video) without a hardware modification or some kind of composite / s-video to RGB adapter unit (which would not be of the desired RGB fidelity, presumably).
@blakespot Yes, thank you as well! We do what we can. I enjoy the noise of the real world in my video signal, usually.
@funkatron ( And s-video is a pretty clear signal for a machine like the Plus/4! )
@blakespot it is! I remember!!
