You can test the PMODE 3 screen colours by loading a game such as the attached Chuckie Egg. Sorry, Steve. I have been with my time full doing a composite video mod for my Color64. Originally his image was crap, now it's much better: Before the Mod: https://picasaweb.google.com/109345699838454178536...

It will work under Dragon or just for CoCo ?

Yes, but the majority of TV sets nowdays is multisystem. This LCD of mine recognizes PAL-M, PAL-B/G, PAL-N and NTSC (that ones I tested and worked fine)

You can test the PMODE 3 screen colours by loading a game such as the attached Chuckie Egg. Is it possible that the problem is with your TV? Thanks! I will test that later at night. No, not the TV. She exhibits the artifacting of my Color64, no problem. But I will test on my last CRT TV tonight to ...

How do I test that ?

That only Juan can answer.

Yes, just on the graphic mode, using artifacting. On text mode the image is cristal clear.

Actually I just use cassete to load all programs on the Dragon/CoCo. The idea behind de OTLA is load cassete programs a lot faster than usual way. Actually CoCOTLA is capable of loading 4 times faster. Here in Brazil, disk interfaces for the CoCo were not so readly available as on the other countrie...

There is any other identification on the ICs ? This appear to be the part number.

The CoCOTLA is an implementation of OTLA made by Robson França here in Brazil. Bellow is a video made on the last "Videomagia" meeting (a retro-gaming event) showing a demonstration of the CoCOTLA loading Tut's Tomb on the CP400, another brazilian CoCo clone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oo0TVptIM...

Good to know that now the ROM of this rare machine is now being shared! Thanks, zephyr! Just to add, by the way, that Juan was an employee on LZ Sistemas, the company who build this machine back in the eighties! He is crazy to have his dirty hands on my machine, but no no no.. :twisted: Juan, please...
