Re: Two Monitor Setup, RGB Component Splitter

Hi Dryosh, if you are using a component video signal there's no need to connect the sync cable (sync is multiplexed on the green one). While if you 're using RGB video signal you will also have to connect the sync in addition to red, green and blue.

Re: Two Monitor Setup, RGB Component Splitter

Don't your PVMs have pass-trough video outputs? You could just chain both monitors and turn on one or the other when needed

Re: Portable HDMI Screens for Vertical Alignment

I got that same monitor last summer and I used it with my MiSTer while on holidays. I also bought a foldable laptop stand and managed to use the monitor in vertical (tate) mode. Make sure not to let the side buttons get pressed while the monitor rests on its side. On a side (no pun intended) note, I managed to run the whole setup on batteries using...

Re: Game Restart While Playing Armed Police Batrider

I don't know if this can be of any help but I've played a lot of both Batrider and Battle Bakraid, I've 1cc'ed them many times and I haven't experienced any restart. I have an Antonio Villena Mister with heathsink on the fpga chip and a small fan on it

direct_video will never go above 15khz and is undisplayable on a VGA monitor

Exactly, direct_video is only meant to be used to hook up a 15KHz crt tv/monitor to the MiSTer through an hdmi-vga adapter

Re: PSX via VGA to PC CRT 31 Khz Monitor not Working

I just tested the "psx" section and it does work. However all of those [video=###x###] sections will override it and should be removed for now. I agree with you, the opener should start from scratch with a brand new mister.ini file. I've been using an hdmi-vga adapter with a vga crt monitor for months and it works flawlessly with the psx...

Re: Connecting Switches Directly

My advice is the same as the above responders, just build a Daemonbite arcade adapter with an Arduino Pro Micro, here's a link: https://github.com/MickGyver/DaemonBite-Arcade-Encoder Anyway, as regards lag, your tv is probably the weaker ring in the chain, you may try to hook up a pc monitor, they usually have less lag than TVs or (much better in m...

Re: UFO Robot Dangar Does Not Work on CRT Anymore

I opened an issue on Github and Pierco quickly resolved it. The core is now working again on 15Khz CRTs.

UFO Robot Dangar Does Not Work on CRT Anymore

After having played and looped the game when the core first came out in September, I went back to it again yesterday and found out it does not work on my CRTs anymore (out of sync). I hooked up an hdmi monitor to my MiSTer and found out the vertical frequency of the game was 65Hz while in the precious core it was 59Hz. Was this change made for accu...

Re: Black screen when loading game since June 18, 2022 update

I solved the problem. I noticed that my main Mister file was outdated, it was version v.220507 although the latest release was v.220529. This is very strange since I update my MiSTer every week at least! Anyway, I downloaded the latest Mister Main file, menu.rbf and Mister.ini from Github, copied them to the root of my microSD card and, after that,...

Re: Black screen when loading game since June 18, 2022 update

I have the same problem described by the opener, the previous .rbf release (22.05.11) works flawlessly. I have my disc images in an external USB drive, I've tried loading an image from the microSD card but it doesn't work either.

Re: Sync issue on Vertical cores

I had the same issue with my PVM 1954QM, I solved the problem by setting composite_sync=0 in the mister.ini file

EDIT: my post is related only to Dodonpachi core, the other arcade cores would work perfectly fine with composite_sync=1
