It's perfectly accurate, though! "Guinea pig" to you and me.

Yeah, "conejillo de Indias" is "Guinea pig" in english. But in french, it should have been "cochon d'Inde" (a pig from India). I don't know why they choose "rabbit" instead, and "rabbit from america", which does absolutly not refers to the "conejillo de Indias". And I still don't understand the sentence, it's a special expression in spanish ? Because there's no relation whatsoever with computer stuffs, nor monitor things...^^'

OK, I understand better. But it's the same thing: even if you can set lots of resolutions for 24 khz and 31 kHz with the special driver... where are the games that run at those resolutions ? ^^'

There are many games that run at 31 kHz (from PC or other hardware), but it's 640x480, or 640x448 (the PS2 in NTSC, for the very few games designed for). I don't know games that run at a different resolutions. You have some mid 90' PC games that run under 640x480, but you could display them with black border inside a standard 640x480 space.

Yeah, because there aren't much games designed for full 512x512 and 768x512, I guess...

I saw a link to Starcab.net, even if it's not about a Hantarex monitor, so I guess your monitor is really an arcade one, and not a stand-alone broadcast monitor or something else. And man, in arcades, almost everything is analog video since decades. Your tri-sync monitor, like many arcade monitors, is designed for analog video, for several frequencies, and it has only one connector, so every signals will go inside (and you can be sure it's analog only, because when you have digital+analog monitors, you always have separate connectors).

You need to know the pin-out of the connector (pins for composite sync at 15 and 24/25 kHz, and separate sync at 31 kHz), and you need to know if the frequency selection is automatic or if you need to move a jumper on the chassis (on the big PCB under the picture tube).

Beware that arcade monitors standard is 2.5 to 5 Volts for video signal (15-24 kHz), 1 volt for 31 Khz.
If you want to plug any home console or you PC driven at 15 kHz (1 volt), you need a video amplifier, otherwise you will get a very dark picture.

Some monitors can accept non standard frequencies (outside the basic 15-16, 24-25 and 31-33 kHz), but most of them are locked around those.

Anyway, there are very few resolutions used at 24-25 and 31 Khz, because there are very few games that run at those frequencies. When you talk about 24 kHz, most time it's Sega hardware (and few Konami ones), with two or three given resolutions, and 31 Khz is mostly used for 640x480 (I don't know if there are games at 853x480, for example).

Some Japanese computer may use different resolutions at those frequencies (like 768x512) , but the most diverse frequencies are around 15 kHz (and most of the best video games ever run at 15 kHz

Funny translation :

" J'adorerais m'offrir comme petit lapin de l'Amérique mais je n'ai pas non plus l'un toujours(encore), et il(elle) attendait pour te demander un peu à voir. "

I don't know what a "little rabbit of the America" have to do there... ^^'

I played the demo of Gigantic Army and based on that I'd say it's going to end up being the best 2D mech game ever.  Recap will be happy to know it's perfect for a joystick (Shock Troopers-style shot fixing, dashing is done with a double tap, punching is automatic at close-range.)
