Still setting up my shiny new Mister. Realised there's also an MPT-03/Arcadia core, which is the very first "touch" with anything video game related in my life ❤ Unfortunately the Arcadia core does not even show the menu, when hooked up to a Sony BVM CRT All the other cores see to work just fine. Is there anything I can do to get this working? Latest version of all sw.

I don't believe the core supports the 15KHz video output. Nobody is currently working on it...

Not a great solution but you could add this to the end of your Mister.ini as a stop gap.

[Arcadia]
vga_scaler=1
video_mode=320,8,32,24,240,4,3,16,6048

Thanks for the reply, but the result is unfortunately the same. Tweaking the core specific resolution might do the trick, I guess. Is there anything I could change in the line, to fix the problem? I have no clue other than the 320x240 that I presume the line refers to

I'm not too sure, maybe someone who has a better understanding of modelines can help out. I was using that line for another core and it seems to work with this Arcadia one. I'm using component cables on a consumer tv which might explain why I'm having luck where you are not.

Here is a doc with an explanation of the modelines if that is helpful.

Ok, thanks

When you said you're using component signal, do you have this setting enabled in the Mister.ini?

Code: Select all

Yes that's correct. Most everything else is default.
