I just came across a Commdore 1084 monitor - funny, I wasn't even aware of the model. Must have missed it way back when..
Anyway, this monitor has several different video input options. It will accept (among others) C-64 type S-Video (C / L /A) and two different modes of RGB (it seems).
So if I'm using a C-128 - I know it's possible to cable the "standard" DIN video port on the 128 into the C/L/A input on the 1084. That works just fine. But is there a way, simply with the correct cable, to also connect the 9-pin RGB output on the 128 to one of the (DIN) RGB inputs on the 1084?
See, as it sits, I have two monitors connected to the 128 - one 1702 on the DIN video, and an RGB monitor on the Din-9 RGB port. I'd like to just use the 1084 - and be able to switch video modes on the monitor rather than use two different monitors.
So does it work? Has it been done?
Thanks!
