Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I have posted an upgrade (V1.2) of the firmware for the ASCII Video Terminal on my web page at http://geoffg.net/terminal.html.

This fixes the issue where running in composite PAL mode all USB communications was corrupted. It also fixes a bug where composite (both PAL and NTSC) were limited to a line width of 34 characters (should be 50 chars).

Full software and instructions to perform the upgrade are included in the upgrade file. You only need a Windows computer and the upgrade takes less than a minute.

There are a couple of features that I want to add to the firmware later but I left them so that I could push out this fix ASAP.
