Does the Saturn video output support a component cable?

[folderwin]

I've already tried with a couple of component cables, I can't output video, or one color, or just interference.

I think it only supports RGB. If you want component you'll need to get the HD Retrovision cables, or a cable that converts the signal to Component.

Talking about the actual Saturn console? If so, it does composite, s-video and RGB.

If you're talking about the Saturn core on MiSTer, then I would assume it can do component if you have your mister.ini file set correctly.

We are talking about Mister Saturn. I wanted to connect MISTER to the component output of my TV, but mister never gave out a picture, although there is a component mode on the switches, but it only has a green color but in high resolution.

What kind of converters are we talking about? From HDMI to component?

Depending on whether you're trying to use the HDMI port (direct video) or the analog io board, the instructions differ a bit.

You'll need to edit your mister.ini.

Here's a guide on using the direct video functionality (pushing analog video over the HDMI port. You'll want the YPbPr (component) section, but it's a good idea to read through most of that page.

This also has a little more information:

Here's a video showing how to set it up using the analog IO board if that's what you want to do:

The Saturn core provides analog video out if using the analog board. I have a DE15 to component breakout cable connected to the DE15 (VGA) port on the analog board and the Saturn core works fine on my Sony TV with component input. The image is shifted to the left which is strange -- all other cores are more or less centered -- but figure it will eventually get fixed.

I even have the menu displayed incorrectly . The resolution is high but the color is only green

And you have "ypbpr=1" in the mister.ini file? Maybe the breakout cable you're using is not wired correctly. I'm using this one from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001T6OHNU

Depending on whether OP has updated recently, the ypbpr option was deprecated and merged into a new setting called vga_mode. In this case they'd want to specify vga_mode=ypbpr in their config (and make sure they're changing the correct config profile, if they use multiple):

Code: Select all

;ypbpr=0               ; set to 1 for YPbPr on VGA output. (obsolete. see vga_mode)
vga_mode=rgb           ; supported modes: rgb, ypbpr, svideo, cvbs. rgb is default.

thanks for the answers, it turned out to be configured, but unfortunately, in addition to games from computers and ps1, it is not possible to play, too clear, too bright colors, it is better to stop on s-video, oetimal result
