Yes, check bit 6 of $FF07 is sufficient, and by far the most common method actually used in code. The other suggestions above can also work.

Read KERNAL ROM location $FF80. If MSB is 1 the machine should be PAL, if 0 then NTSC.

 Detect PAL/NTSC ?

Hi!

What is the easiest reliable method to detect the video system ?

Is checking bit 6 of $ff07 sufficient ?

Or counting the max vertical raster position ?

Thanks
