(0.1.0-beta) User comfirmed that composite to a PAL monitor doesn't work #47

They were able to solve it, but had to set the composite out to PAL.

Not really sure what to do about this, since I don't have a PAL display sitting around. I'm also not sure if we can set it to auto-detect or something.

Suggestions?

Video options will need to be included in the ES menu. We will have to discuss the layout of what kind of layout we would like in ES.

Having it in the ES menu might not work if you can't see the menu item in order to change video modes. I don't necessarily want to force people to plug into the HDMI out on first boot if they don't have one, but that would be one way to address it.

How does the default RPi image get around this problem? Will it boot with composite (NTSC/PAL) support on first boot, or do you have to edit the video options in order to get it to work?

Provide two separate images. NTSC and PAL.
