Re: Missing Top 8 Lines of Analog Video

Do you have the vertical crop (ie. 216p) option enabled, by any chance? That affects analog output as well, not just HDMI.

Re: Logitech MX Mechanical Wireless Keyboard Question?

It has to be connected by a Logitech Bolt USB receiver, apparently. I ordered assuming it'd work. Once a Bolt dongle is paired it just appears as a regular USB keyboard regardless of OS. I read that to pair, you need the Logi Bolt App to pair Logi Bolt compatible devices with the Logi Bolt receiver. That's what's thrown me. Yeah but you only need ...

I think this forum could use an Analogue Pocket topic, as often echoed here there's certainly a large enough overlap in MiSTer owners and Pocket owners to justify it.

One beauty of using an external USB HD is that, if you want to copy lots of large ISOs, you can just unplug it from the Mister, plug it straight into your PC, and copy over the files. Really fast, no network to deal with, and your SDCard can be used purely for the OS. But you can literally do the exact same thing with the SD card as well? No, not ...

Re: Controllers for Each Core Is This Possible? [Solved]

A controller gets assigned as the next player in line (player 1, player 2, etc) whenever you press one of its buttons. You can force unassignment of all controllers by selecting "Reset player assignment" in the MiSTer UI (you don't need to exit the current running core, press right to go to the System page of the UI and it will be the 4th...

It should be like the Menu action where you can assign it as either a dedicated button, or a button ...

It should work but I don't understand why anyone would spend $200~ on a micro SD when you could buy a USB drive (even an SSD) in much larger capacities for far cheaper. Anyone who doesn't want a USB drive dangling off their MiSTer? It's not that hard to understand. Any storage method that MiSTer supports (SD card, USB drive, network share) has adv...

Re: Is this frequency showing correct on crt?

The exact "standard" frequency of NTSC is 59.94Hz, but virtually any device (and in the case of MiSTer, any core) will deviate slightly from that spec depending on their output resolution and other timings. Which is fine and intended, because CRTs are designed to have a certain amount of leeway. It is one of the major advantages of MiSTer...

That doesn't include third party cores (the two most notable sources being Jotego's JTCORES, and Coin-Op Collection).
