    Re: A little HELP!!

    Thanks Aerostar,
    Just another brain cramp on my part. As long as the background is blue then color squares appear. With video, only white squares. I keep searching the internet for a chip that will...

    Again my biggest thanks. I will play with it as time permits. Yes I had looked at the BOB4 sometime ago and it was only white from what I remember.

    Re: A little HELP!!

    That seems kind of strange to me. Any ideas as to how we can test this? Maybe something simple like assigning a color to "NTSC"?

    Re: A little HELP!!

    Yes you are right! What I did wrong was try it with a video input signal! When you wrote "Blue Background" that was the key to not use a video input source. A video input source gives the rectangles...

    I had thought that this was the character size:

    Hi!
    My code does not work!!:confused: NTSC. no longer displays which is understandable. The code complies and when I run it nothing is displayed! Must have missed something basic?
