                On screen display support (OSD overlay)

The HxC firmware for Gotek now support the On Screen Display !

You can now select images and see the drive status on the machine's screen without 
any additional software or LCD/OLED ! No need to make holes in the machine case anymore ;).

You only need 2 wires and a resistor to connect the Gotek to the machine's video signals :
One wire is used for the CSYNC video signal (Composite Sync), the other wire for the red, green (prefered) 
or blue signal.

One resistor must be put in serie on the color signal between the Gotek and the machine.
You can use a value between 220 and 470 ohms for this resistor. A potentiometer can be also 
used to tune the OSD brightness/contrast.

This was currently tested on Amiga 500, Atari STE and Amstrad CPC 6128 machines, but should work 
with any machines having a composite sync signal.

Note : If the standby/hide delay is too long or too short for you, you can change the screen standby timeout 
value in the embedded menu "screen standby" setting.
