Zaxour 阿宅

@Torment1979 Yes, that is correct. Otherwise no video signal is present at the DIN

@zaxour hi I’m having an issue with my pow block. I get video and audio out on the standard composite ports. But I get nothing out of my 10-pin. I don’t have any video mods installed. I have the pow audio jumped. Do I need to jump #3 pounds-cvbs?

@LonelyGamerVibe That is correct!

@zaxour So if I understand correctly the HL and HR points on the motherboard connect to the 3BP on any of the red points marked in this picture?

@zaxour I could use your help if possible. I’ve gotten to this point of the triple bypass following your manual from github. Since I’m not restoring CVBS, what am I missing besides the 3.5k resistors in the RGB channels? I also have no clue what to do with HL/HR…

@jeffqchen 啊，了解，沒有聽過耶 表示我們有遇到那麼沒禮貌的大陸人 😂

@zaxour 灣=蛙，大陸人對於台灣人的稱呼，很不禮貌☝️

This is the way

@jeffqchen 什麼意思啦 雖然我知道「蛙」的意思，但不知道這個是不是個reference 😂

@zaxour 蛙味😂

@BlueShell3D It’s always about food

@zaxour What’s happening? Is this about food??

@v64jr @retroaccess We have to spread retro access diagrams around to replace the wrong info

@retroaccess @zaxour The Internet’s perpetual Sega Saturn reversed audio channel pinout strikes again. 👍😅

It has come to our attention that the SuperStation One does not follow the Sega Saturn pinout, instead the audio channels are swapped. Our pinout figures in the Retro Access Knowledge Center have been updated to reflect this. retro-access.com/knowledge-cent…

Showing him the ropes

I have noticed there are a number of incorrect PlayStation AV Multi Out diagrams floating around in the aether, typically they show the audio channels reversed. In actuality, Left is on pin 2, right is pin 4. I put together this diagram to clarify the correct pinout.

I made a small diagnostic tool called MegaDoctor. It is intended to help find hardware faults during Mega Drive / Genesis console repairs. github.com/krikzz/megadoc…

@v64jr @SnoopKatt @RSDCDN depends heavily on what signals HDNes requires from the PPU and what is interrupted. NESRGB and Lava both use the same set of signals, so I can say those are fine.

@zaxour @SnoopKatt @RSDCDN Could these be adapted for Hi-Def NES?

Experimenting with nesrgb V5…

@embedrapp good thing I didn't pan left....definitely a mess 🤣

@zaxour testing with the mah jong cart is a classy move. bench looks surgically clean too.

@Alfred47920954 @samson7point1 If you’re using on an original NES board, no worries. SMTendo has additional ground planes, which bring some capacitance - the resistors are added to dampen the step response, otherwise it crashes

@zaxour @samson7point1 I noticed some extra resistors and jumper wires were added. Are there any known issues with the open-source PPU Lite module? I’ve also placed an SMT assembly order with JLCPCB.😢😢

PPU-LITE is a really cool open source project, but there were some things I wanted to change about the designs, so I made a remix! It's about 14mm narrower than the original, but about as deep, and utilizes a 4 layer stackup.

@FytchiiAD Surface mount Famicom I’ve been developing

@zaxour im super interested in what you're running this off, any test consoles ive use have all been toploaders or my own av fami, i've never heard of this open source board! this is super neat huh

@SnoopKatt @RSDCDN Not possible; my Famicom here has jumpers between PPU and CPU to disconnect them easily

@zaxour @RSDCDN But could your flexes be used to install this on a stock NES without desoldering the PPU?

@RSDCDN Well…this is a surface mount Famicom, so the PPU would have to come from somewhere, but this allows you to solder the PPU in so you can use the original eject lever

@zaxour Holy shit. No need to desolder the PPU?
