FrameThrower 500 is designed to work with PiStorm 500 (NOT INCLUDED) the Amiga 500/500Plus and/or Amiga 2000 (A2000), acting as a scandoubler/flicker fixer that allows native Amiga video modes and Retargetable Graphics (RTG) to output through a single HDMI port, integrated with the PiStorm accelerator board. It installs by plugging into the A500/A2000's Denise socket, allowing direct access to the video chip for pure output, and connects to the Raspberry Pi3.
