Am i alone to have mistercast only working on older version of groovymister ?

Have you tried mistercast 1.01?

https://github.com/iequalshane/MiSTerCa ... /tag/v1.01

Ok it was finally updated. Great news thank you.

I can be wrong but it looks like you are using the wrong modeline. With wrong modeline the image could be stable but garbage come when there is movement. There is modeline here : https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Modeline_Database Try these : 1280 720 60 Hz 44.9576 kHz ModeLine "1280x720" 74.18 1280 1390 1430 1650 720 725 730 750 +HSync +VSync ...

BVM are not VGA monitor by any means. Well, Martin's clone cards do offer a VGA input and since A and D series of BVMs are multiformat, you could argue that this combination creates a kind of an VGA monitor. Limited of course to 60Hz refresh rate. As for the I/O board, the DAC on the official one really is bad so I have high hopes for the upcoming...

Your questions has been answered a thousand times. Documentation exist for a reason, both of you need to use it more often. But i admit there could confusion about hdmi. Minimum resolution for the hdmi spec is 31khz, so when you connect an hdmi to vga adapter to a pc, you won't be able to go below 31khz / 480p. It's not because of the adapter, it's...

This discussion is the good laugh of the day. It's always funny when a guy that don't understand crap come to disseminate his knowledge... Anyway hdmi and direct video output 240p just fine, no reason to linedouble. Your Mister output 240p just fine as it is right now. And the BVM report 480i because it's the same signal as 240p, it's perfectly nor...

Look at the github, there is a few feature request related to snac and lightgun support. From what i remember it's not implemented yet.

Atohmdiy

For some times i used a tesmart hdmi kvm switch (8x1). The one i have is 4k30 fps but there is a more expensive version that can do 4k60. Direct video work perfectly fine.

Atohmdiy

The way i see it their solution seems promising. They say they will stay open source and it's the most important to me. I don't understand why people buy garbage from analogue. Because despite their generally awful communication and endless delays/poor product availablitiy, the products that they do eventually produce are pure quality. I've owned ...

Atohmdiy

Thanks for your answer, it's really a shame this TV has so much potential. If only i could find a 852x480 modeline, but i doubt it. Anyway i'll give a try to interpolation. I quickly tried the video filter to add scanline but it don't do anything except darkens the image. I usually go with the scandoubler fx with 75% scanline but a few core don't h...

So far, all MARS has produced is theories and promises, not one of which has been kept. I can't figure out for the life of me why anyone believes they will produce anything more than fantasy. It's not a matter of believing, i don't think anyone is fool enough to wait for them. As you said the only thing they show is thin air and they clearly don't...

Atohmdiy

Easy to say such thing when you don't do anything yourself. Managing a project is everything but easy, especially considering what they want to do. The only problem i have with MARS is the way Atrac supposedly bash Mister. I don't follow much the social network so i don't follow the relation between fpga developers, and i don't care. The way i see ...

Hi, I got a tv recently, a Pana TX-36PD30. The TV by itself is very good with an excellent image but i didn't knew what to really expect when i bought it. And let's say the information you can find on reddit and such are... well, very unreliable :lol: So it seems that only the component input is usable without the usual 100hz mess, with a resolutio...

Atohmdiy

I've never been more confused. So do you guys think the upcoming IO boards will have good DACs? Maybe I should just wait and buy one of them, I don't know anymore... The thing is, as long as we will rely on cheap chinese garbage, the situation will stay like today. We need someone in the retro community to build a reliable dac. Even hdfury should ...

It's funny that we've got a turbo / OC version for a lot of core now but still not for the neo geo, even the M92 have it and it's a wounderfull feature. I heard the analog pocket will get a turbo option for the neo geo soon if it's not already done. Altering the CPU clock speed alone is only useful for Metal Slug games (somehow unacceptable concep...

Atohmdiy

Could you please cease spreading FUD? UniBIOS 4.0 has been explicitly patched to support an overclocked NeoGeo. Well as can be seen by this thread the Current Overclocked core has caused graphical corruption. Therefore is not FUD. Believe what you wish. If you don't want to help users with problems, you could at least refrain from spreading misinf...

Atohmdiy

Ok it was just the dip switch that goes random for an unknown reason. I tried all title and everything is fine. What i would like to know though, is why the arcade organizer do not pick the first Gunforce and Undercover cops in the organize folder. It's not the first time i have this issue, the first time it was my downloader.ini that wasn't set pr...

I have zstd compression in my ssd with btrfs and it start to become used a lot in many linux related stuff (kernel...). But from what i understand it's build to be fast, xz is a lot slower but compress a lot more ?

Atohmdiy

Wonderfull work ! Irem M92 is one of the best arcade system and the core is so good with CRT H/V adjustement and now cpu turbo.
I do have a problem though, i cannot start gunforce 2, the game doesn't start, i just have the self test ROM / RAM OK but upside down.

Atohmdiy

I don't even know how to do it. My controller is a powera fusion for switch, the only unused button is the "screenshot" button, but i have no idea how to map it to the F10 button of a keyboard. And even then, the lightgun calibration screen is the only "hidden" menu i know of, i don't understand why there shouldn't be an entry i...

Atohmdiy

If i remember correctly there is no way to pull the lightgun calibration utility directly with the menu, you need to press F10 with a keyboard and repeat the procedure for each core. Not very practical for people like me that doesn't use a keyboard with their mister. So why not add an entry in the menu somewhere in bootup menu and in cores that sup...

Atohmdiy

with the advent of Groovy_MiSTer and the progress thats been made for better compression, more cores working in Retroarch, inputs working from MiSTer controllers, and the fact that it bypasses what a computer GPU driver would have to buffer (so we get lower input lag compared to the machine playing MAME), the MiSTer has already reached what i woul...

Atohmdiy

The wrong attitude, is bending over backwards to serve stupid people. This project is not for them. If stupid people want hand-holding, and an even simpler menu system than a text-based menu, then they can go buy a Raspberry Pi, and leave the Mister alone. I reject this arbitrary gatekeeping framing completely. Sorgelig and other devs have made pl...

Atohmdiy

FYI - The device that I use that works really really well for me and I think is no longer made uses an Explore EP9851 DAC. http://img.hqew.com/file/others/500000-509999/501681/electronic/201288121722596731.pdf If there are any devices today that use that DAC, that is what I recommend for the MiSTer. It has perfect color and no sync issues. Edit: I...

Atohmdiy

HD Fury i very well aware of this thread and the test you did. About this halo issue, they answered me this : Hi there There are no adjustments on the hdfury to overcome this. The hdfury has been tested here https://tinyurl.com/dactestresults and comes in as a reference DAC. Usually halos are caused by cabling that is too long or poorly shielded. I...

Atohmdiy

Thank for doing these test. When i saw you post, i decide to order an hd fury X3 as it is suppose to be the reference. After installation, i found the text to look weird. There is a discussion in the shmup forum about it, it seems i am not alone and this dac has some kind of halo effect : https://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?p=1550549#p1550549...

Atohmdiy

It's funny i have a similar idea some years ago, i talk of it in the previous mister forum. The idea was the same but by using the nano ADC. Back then someone said the ADC hasn't enough bandwith to handle video signal. Didn't thought to use the network though. Anyway this is a very interesting idea. I am asking myself if there is not something to d...

now we have cd support in the main core and probably some other changes, is it possible to get an updated 18mhz and 24mhz patched version?

I wanted to come here to ask the same, as i stated the old version now crash.

Atohmdiy

Get HTGDB game pack for the neo geo (try archive), mgs2 turbo is in the hack section.

Atohmdiy

What needs to be fixed about it? The core meets timing requirements when I compile trbocode's latest version. I don't think doubling the clock is anywhere near the equivalent of what Koston's mods to his own boards are though. The current build is like clocking the board to 24MHz which is a bit excessive given 12MHz is the default. The crashes you...
