I use this cable from Monoprice. It seems to work well on my Trinitron.

Did you have to tweak the code to change the position of each virtual button to do that or do all the buttons work (especially that return button) with the positions that RealLarry set? We already spoke to each other. His buttons are at the exact position like mine, except the return/trash can button. For the next update I'll either set a new opti...

Nice update to the touch screen buttons warham! :) I made some changes for mine as well to give it a more "3D" feel. 000-touchscreen.jpg I like how you have all the buttons spaced evenly.

Update time! I just released the "open binary" 220801 No changes to the code but for the two libraries ESP32Time (time module) and GFX_Library_for_Arduino (display drivers). The project is declared "done" and free for all under the license CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 (Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International). No more restric...

Yeah, I’ve since changed my file’s name from “GameGear.mgl” to “Game Gear.mgl” to make it look better in the list. I did something similar. I like to have all my Nintendo/Sega/Atari/etc. systems grouped together, so I renamed the files to "Sega Game Gear" and "Sega SG-1000" as well as updating their <setname> attributes to matc...

I'm in the same situation. Unfortunately the clock always has the wrong time on my MiSTer.

Hi all. I threw together a small enclosure that can be used to house the 3.5" TFT screens and posted it to the Printables website in case anyone else wants to print one. I kept it the same style as my MiSTer case so that it would match. It's a two piece box that snaps together, but ideally would be secured by two screws from the bottom going ...

I threw together an image for the menu and thought I would share in case anyone else would like to use it. There are two versions (480x320 and 320x240) depending on your screen size. Many thanks for that! With your permission I'd like to throw both images into repo's basic media equipment. Absolutely! I’m happy to make any contributions to this pr...

I'd have to say that adding this little color screen to my MiSTer setup has really taken it to the next level. I was blown away when I first came across tty2oled (thanks Venice!), but having a larger color screen that can display images and movies opens up so many options for graphics/media. RealLarry has also been awesome to work with on resolving...

OnCor

This is great news RealLarry! I wondered if there was a way to improve the contrast on these ILI9486 screens as most of the pictures that displayed on mine were very washed out. I assume we have to update the binary using the wget command thru SSH? I tried the updatetty2tft script and it said that my ESP32 was up to date. Please advise. Erm, no, y...

Update time! I just released the closed beta 220614 There is only one change and only affects those with an ILI9486 (480x360) display. This display driver was borked and showed many picture with a gamma overdrive, but that has been fixed now. Here is an example showing a picture before and after the fix: This is great news RealLarry! I wondered if...

OnCor

Thanks RealLarry. Good to know it was probably the test program and that my setup isn't borked. :D I will continue playing around with this tonight when I get off of work. By the way does it matter how the SD card is formatted? I believe I am using exFAT. You're welcome. But please format the SD to FAT32 for now. I'd love to get exFAT working (spe...

I've got my TFT display and the ESP32 device connected to each other. When I do the "Test" the flashing completes successfully through SSH, but the screen just shows as bright white with no graphics. I soldered the three wires as directed on the ESP32 and have that device connected to the DE-10 nano via a micro USB cable through a powered...

For the Saturn logo I think all options should be available. This gives variety if you use alternates or lets you pick the one you like the best if you don't. I think the color of the screen might have a big impact on the appearance of each one. Yeah, we are having all options for that. That's why tty2* is having an (default enabled USE_RANDOM_ALT...

A larger screen would be ideal for those of us whose near vision has failed in our older age. LOL!

The Steam Deck has a 7" display which seams like it would be a nice, big size. Having HDMI out would also be awesome so that the device could be plugged into a hotel TV when traveling.

OnCor

How’s the tty2tft project coming along RealLarry? Having full color images (and potentially video) for the MiSTer would be pretty awesome. :D It's alomst finished but needs some code cleanups. I'm planning a release in the near future. One can say "when it's done", but doesn't take so much time like Duke Nukem Forever :) Very cool. 8-)

Part #2 and the last one of today's work. Picture invasion!!! And before anyone asks why I'm so slow for that handful of picture, my answer is stick a finger up your nose, I have twice the work with it (GSC for tty2oled and JPG for tty2tft). :ugeek: Need a drink now as I suffer from a pixelaria .

Exactly.

Nice!

Thanks for the update RealLarry. It makes sense to leave the tty2oled-system.ini untouched and just have users add custom settings in the tty2oled-user.ini.

I think so. Very cool. 8-) Which logo is displayed on the screen when the screensaver runs? Testing on the unit I got from you now. Looks like it alternates between a MiSTer logo and TTY2OLED logo that bounces around the screen periodically. And definitely works on your NodeMCU. Good to know. Thanks for testing that out! :) Example: CMDSAVER,1,10,...

The tty2oled testing FW got a ScreenSaver Update.

Display is similar, but technical the same...but not driven by a powerless 2560

Very cool.

This is definitely a step up from the OLED display for sure.

OnCor

The display is not set to the maximum brightness, to limit the chances of burning in. Still, if you use the same cores a lot there is a chance of it happening (alternative logos should help prevent that a bit). RealLarry mentioned the idea of the display turning off automatically, but that would require a similar solution to changing logos every n...
