Sorry to hijack, I have a loose pacman id part with for the right price, bear in mind its coming from aus, so it would be a fair amount of postage.

Le sigh. You guys get all the cool shit for cheap over there.

I have 2 of the ones from turkey on thw way atm. Hope I dont have this issue.

I got a loose cart with no label in the lot I bought recently. Turned out to be baseball.

For those international variant collectors, theres am interesting spartans in here, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Intellivoice-Voice-Synthesis-Module-w-4-Games-Intellivision-Complete-in-Box-/151430034361?pt=US_Video_Game_Controllers&hash=item2341eef3b9

So no issue with the av out?

Yeah I saw that one. 20 bucks or something. Looked so simple I figured it couldnt go wrong.

Looking through the manual,it says that through the hdmi cables it is able to support between 50 and 70 vertical refresh rates, but it says nothing about the composite. it looks like I need to do the composite mod, then if that doesnt work, buy a ntsc to pal converter. has anyone else done this? had any issues along the way?

can anyone confirm that av mod will fix?

I dont have a vcr. Havent owned one is a decade. It would need to be an ntsc one anyway wouldnt it? everything is digital in this house havent even had a dvd player for 5 years.

Looks like its the wrong version of ntsc. American stuff is normally NTSC 3.58 where as NTSC4.43(from europe) is apparrently totally different. Next step, will a composite mod solve this issue?

hmmmmmm. If thats what it turns out like when not converting corectly, Id say its something I am doing wrong...... Ill look into it.

Ok so my package arrived today. Set it up and 2 out of the 3 systems seem to work, but ntsc or not im getting static sound and this picture. The multicoloured on is an inty and the black and white is a sytem 3. What do?

Thr majority of the games I have will be pal, all the ones from my childhood. However the games I have incoming have some reall good ones, pacman, bump and jump and a few others. This way they would both run perfectly using the one console. In wll likelyhood ill just run an ntsc one and deal with the crappy music and game speed but if its within my own talents to hook one up to run both I might give it a crack.

No flash tv. Was just having a fiddle with it and when you are programming anologue channels manually you can choose whether it is a pal or ntsc channel. My thought was that I put a spacer inbetween the top and bottom of the case so I have room for the extra logic board, then make up a loom for the ribbon strip. From there it runs into a switch that selects which logic board receives power. They would both be running of the original pal transformer into the power board so that wouldnt be an issue. To make it less messy I would need to ook into an adapter that allows 2 rf inputs into one. I dont know if they exist but provided there is only one signal at a time I dont see that it would be an issue.....

Wow, this went into technical stuff i a- dont understand and -b never expected haha had a thought earlier, aside from the space issue, would it be possible somehow to run 2 different logic boards in the one system with a switch to change them over?

Ok I might test the powerboards in the incoming one to see if they work if that's the case I might just be able to change that and mine will tun fine.

So are the power boards identical?

kk, cheers gents.
