So I have this nice old PAL Sony Trinitron 29X1D that I use for my GameCube normally. Worked always great with that and still does, 60Hz RGB signal, no problem.
When I'm trying to connect my MiSTer to that TV though, I get 70% snow - and not the intentional one from the menu screen. Everything is washed out and the menus are barely visible. Doesn't help to load up a core either, it doesn't really work in a way that is usable.
I know that I have to adjust the .ini in a way to make this happen. I've read a bit about the vga_scaler options but most stuff that I find is for Computer CRTs and nothing I have tried worked for me yet.
I have added my .ini - any help would be appreciated.

; Set to 1 for automatic HDMI VSync rate adjust to match original VSync.
; Set to 2 for low latency mode (single buffer).
; This option makes video butter smooth like on original emulated system.
; Adjusting is done by changing pixel clock. Not every display supports variable pixel clock.
; For proper adjusting and to reduce possible out of range pixel clock, use 60Hz HDMI video
; modes as a base even for 50Hz systems.
vsync_adjust=0
; These parameters have the same format as video_mode.
; You need to supply both PAL and NTSC modes if you want vsync_adjust to switch between
; predefined modes as a base. This will reduce the range of pixel clock.
;video_mode_ntsc=0
;video_mode_pal=7
logo=0 ; 0 - disable MiSTer logo in Menu core
