CONFIG COMPOSITE NTSC | PAL
The COMPOSITE setting will change the timing for the composite video output. Default is PAL. NTSC is used for composite in the United States. See the hardware for the CGMMSTICK or CGCOLORMAX for information on setting your device to output composite rather than VGA.
The CONFIG command differs from other options. It permanently reconfigures MMBasic and it only needs to be run once (ie, the setting will be remembered even with the power turned off).
The power must be cycled after changing a setting for it to take effect.
VGA screen resolution is 480 horizontal by 432 vertical in modes 1-3, and 240×416 in mode 4. PAL composite is 304 by 216 and NTSC composite is 304 by 180.
