      Hello,

      I've been trying to get my Raspberry to output on a Pal CRT and I have succeeded.

      sdtv_mode=2 has been set to PAL.
      hdmi_ignore_hotplug=1 has been activated.

      The Overscan has been messed with and is almost working.

      I've been been reading Retropie now supports 240 / 288p and that you can switch inside Retropie from 576i / 480i to 288p / 240p.
      The general video settings and the settings per emulator are what I'd like to mess with.

      Where can I find information on how to properly display each emulator on a PAL SDTV?
      Can I damage a CRT, if the Video Output isn't configured properly?

      Any information is appreciated.

      Thanks.
