Not the cheapest (not from China, but close to my hometown here in Germany) put the result is always good quality I will surely post some more pictures, once the resistor arrays arrive the AV adapter will show up at some point of time 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you can get things sorted out and working better soon. Utsource.net is a good source for non-fake chips: LM1889N Other than doing chip swapping, be sure to check for missed solder joints, bridging, and wrong value components. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrow I will receive one from UK - let’s see. in the meantime I am checking (3rd time) solder joints, shorts, values, etc. 🙂 I will also receive spare VDPs from China during next weeks I will do some screenshots during next days and post them I will also scope the different clock signals and post the pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that direct to a TV or via an HDMI adapter? Edit: BTW, I'm still waiting for someone to do a good video review on one of these guys, since my video skills kinda suck. Be nice for giving someone a better overview of what this project is about, and all that it can do out of the box. If you know of someone that can do that I would be very appreciative, and would love to post it at my website as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LarryL Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 It wasn’t utsource, but a seller from UK - eBay name „myretrostore-uk“ this is via a AV2HDMI converter, not the one you recommended, but another Chinese model (but without S-Video) will do some more video tests during the week (the other converter, direct connection to TV, etc.) Will also run all the test Programms you provided, to check if all is good (Joystick and Keyboard are basically working) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
