The bt878 manual lists PAL-M with 525 lines + 60 Hz (used in Brazil) which is basically NTSC timing and PAL color information. This looks fine to me, but I can't test/debug that myself... > I haven't actually looked intot he code that defines modes, perhaps I > should. Is all the timing in the 878 programmable? Should be possible to make it work I think. Maybe PAL-M and PAL-60 are not 100% the same, that PAL-60 needs something slightly different. Tried if the pll insmod options helps in some way?
