Macintosh AV Systems: Selecting Flicker-Free Format (5/94)

I have a Macintosh AV computer connected to television display and I am trying to use flicker-free format from the options in the Monitors control panel. I can display video on the television but flicker-free format is grayed out.

The monitor resolution must be set to 256 colors before you can use flicker-free format on the Power Macintosh AV, Centris 660 AV, Quadra 660 AV, or Quadra 840 AV. Flicker-free format will not work in 16 or 24-bit color modes. Also, make certain you have selected 256 colors before switching to the television.
