MiSTer with LG Dual Up 28

[natadiem]

Hi all, so I managed a few months ago to scale Mister perfectly on LG Dual Up 28 (see picture).

It was glorious!
Then I used my Mister on my Astro City CRT for a month, CRT is in repair and I want to use the LG again...
However, It seems that my ini backup didn't work and I don't remember how I did...
Anyone using this monitor? It's really the perfect screen..

Found it! if anyone interested =
video_mode=1280,1440,60
custom_aspect_ratio_1=16:18

How does it look with Console cores and Arcade cores?

Would love to see a TATE game showing off what this can do!

I tried to upload a video from my phone but doesn t allow me to. This screen in tate is awesome even with yoko game.

I actually picked up a Dual Up this week and stumbled upon this post, would it be possible to share your INI file? Does your config apply to all cores? and have you gotten it to work in both orientations?

[Robgus]

This is really interesting! How does 16:18 compare to 4:3? I’ve seen some comparisons of aspect ratios but can’t seem to find it now.

Sorry, I have not checked this thread for a while.
I have been busy upgrading my MiSTer quite a lot, now it's in a Sega Astro City cab as LG28 matches closely to the bezel.
Also attached my ini, I am interested to check yours as well.

I might do the same with my astro city, how have you connected the mister to it? I assume HDMI directly for video and audio but what about the controls?

would be cool if you had the video hosted somewhere that wasnt behind a metawall.

Yes HDMI for video but I am using optical output to a SoundBlaster DAC which then export the sound to Logitech Z623 2.1 speakers (perfect fit for Astro). Also modified the logitech control panel to have direct access to sound volume and bass right under the control panel.

Sorry, you're right. I have a youtube account I never used. I uploaded a short video there with DDP running on MiSTer.

amazing!!
is that black border around the screen a stock part on the candy cab (and the monitor just fits perfectly!) or is that a 3d printed/custom bezel?

Awesome combination, that display in this cab.

I'm not in the facebook group, yet was the crt broken in this cabinet? The lg looks surprisingly good there.

This is the original bezel, cut two parts with a dremel as LG 28 is wider by 2cms on each side.
Then I added Epoxy putty to make the shape, paper sanded, flat black paint and it was done.
I am really not good at these things so anyone can do it .
