By my recollection the 6567R8 puts out 65 cycles * 263 lines and the 6560-101 is the same in non-interlace mode. I would expect the number of lines to alternate between 262 and 263 in interlace mode. Since the raster line register starts at zero, on one frame it would count to 261 and on the next 262. Marko's program must have some means of detecting which frame it is in; this would be one method. I've never seen a 6567R7 nor a 6569R2. I'm reliably informed the 6567R5 exists though I've never seen one either. The 6567R56A seems to be equivalent to the 6569R1 and the 6567R8 to the 6569R3. Where that leaves the 6567R9, the 6569R4 and the 6569R5 I'm not entirely sure. Was there a 6567R10? 6569R5 chips were found in the 12V 65xx equipped 64C. I'd expect the NTSC versions of these to contain the latest 6567 revisions, though I haven't got any. Richard Message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing listReceived on 2011-08-26 16:00:03
