- Add one of following lines, according to your TV's settings.
sdtv_mode=0 # Normal NTSC sdtv_mode=1 # Japanese version of NTSC – no pedestal sdtv_mode=2 # Normal PAL sdtv_mode=3 # Brazilian version of PAL – 525/60 rather than 625/50, different subcarrier
- Edit widv.txt and add the video section with the following option:
