Please, I am with a problem. Here in Brazil used PAL-M. I have a card Voodoo3 3500 TV. I am used the AmigaSport drives, but I don't change Video Standard. In the Italy, are you watch TV in colors? Who can give me help?

hum, i know that this card can run in PalM but under Win98...
some people changed in the Registry the video standard in 4 (= Pal M) then they restarted the pc
or
modified a file found in the windows folder "itt.ini" which would be used by the Visual Reality to get configured before the start : with notepad by e.g they modified the value 1 to 4 (Pal M) or 5 (Pal N)

but all that is under Win98Se... :(
and i'm not sure that the file "itt.ini" exists under XP or even Win2K :(
-------------------
you can perhaps also try an other driver :
"Jonathan Seidner's modified WinXP Driver
Multi-Region, use for both US and non-US systems"

ps : but perhaps, other problems...

Thanks Nightbird,
Before Windows XP, I used Windows ME where i watch TV in color (PAL-M). I ran a litle program that set the card to PAL-M, but in Windows XP don't run.

you're speaking probably about "Voodoo3 3500/TV Standard Select V1.1"

Nightbird, i read your explaning about modified the file "itt.ini" in the windows folder, but i'm still in problem because i don't know where ecxatle i have to change, there are many numbers inside the file and i'm confusing about this.

   I'd be happy if you could help me. thanks.

    ( Esta mensagem vale também para o alvarokothe, gostaria que pudesse me informar onde exatamente devo modificar o arquivo "itt.ini" para transformar o sistema para pal-m na pasta do windows, pois o arquivo é muito complexo, cheio de números e não sei onde devo modificar. Fico grato se puder me ajudar.)

There is a bug in the Amigersport (and I suspect most other) drivers related to simoultaneous TV and monitor output on PAL systems. If you are trying to output to both the monitor and TV, the TV output doesn't work properly. I fixed this in one of the SFFT alpha drivers a while back, if this is your problem try the latest Sfft alpha drivers.

@choylito
The best would be that you post here the file
or
did you try this utility (if you're under Win9x) ?
Voodoo 3 3500 Standard Select version 1.1
