On the frame interrupt it toggled between two screens with different palettes, which looked absolutely horrid though on the TV's I'd tried it on. Other routines in the issue did MODE 3 interlacing - flicking between MODE3 screens saying it would give a screen resolution of 512x384, but it's not as the SAM only outputs non-interlaced video so again, it just appears as a bit of a flickery mess! Out of curiosity, what model of TV is it you have?
