Update tvcon for SAIL Data Disc display

Open larsbrinkhoff opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Update the protocol to accommodate the Data Disc display and SAIL keyboard.

  • Different resolution: 512x480 pixels.
  • Different keyboard layout.
  • Updates are in scanline segments of 6 or 8 pixels.

Question: add switch to tvcon, or make separate ddcon program?

I would argue the differences are quite small, so a separate program shouldn't be needed. However, an alternative name would make sense.

If the protocol is updated, it would be good to also consider the Logo "color TV".
