Re: Groovy_MiSTer Core

Can I run Steam games or emulators like Dolphin and then output out through the mister like I can do with a GPU setup with CRTEmu?

It's strange that it works on a Win10 PC, oh well, only bought it to save a USB slot.

Some interesting things about the firmware and the variations of driver boards. Currently need the RTD2556T chip for all the features. Hopefully, Realtek can help with the other versions.

Re: Where to get the new shadow mask filter?

Thanks. Had not realized the different blending requirements due to resolution difference, but that makes sense. Honestly, I don't spend a lot of time on the Mega Drive, but I didn't like the dithering. Had already gotten used to the fact that it's either a lot of dithering, or a LOT of blur. At least with shadow masks the blending actually looks ...

Sounds like Greg Collins has been working with a driver board company on a new firmware that will have some aspect ratio controls. Freesync is enabled and apparently, it can sync to 40-60hz, not 70-75hz unfortunately. https://twitter.com/collingall/status/1447955316235198468 It seems you can flash existing driver boards with a $40 tool...it's proba...
