 Re: Weird screen artefacts

Unfortunately Commodore monitors also show the lines if using the Luma/CVBS Chroma lead, from memory if the screen is a light blue the artefact shows as a darker blue. I guess it's shocking to see in any form but you do get used to it if your playing games.
And yeah it's not just a C16/Plus4 issue the C64 suffers with it using the same video leads, maybe not as bad but it's also there.
And indeed I recall reading once that Ted machines don't support S-Video yet it works.

If you have a look at some of the images under the "Let's Play (2021 #3)" topic your just about see I have an old Commodore Monitor but annoyingly I resize the picture which hides the lines. That said Luca posted a Jetbrix picture and you can see the lines on his screen on a black background which I believe is a commodore monitor.
Any screen shots of me showing a big TV is S-Video, but again images have been resized. sad
