Re: USB Hub board
Can I simply DIY a cable for the USB hub from a micro USB cable, or does the id/sense pin need to be connected to ground?

Re: Original analog video without I/O board? Possible!
I bought a QGeeM HDMI to VGA adapter on Aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32864796089.html, that one also has an unsupported adapter chip, ones with AG6200 are quite hard to find. Five out of six adapters I have bought have an unsupported chip. The UGreen one I bought have a supported chip...

Re: DIY MD/SMS/Atari/C= to USB adapter
You should compare the port and bits for the pins between the two boards (They look like: PD1,PB5,PF0 etc.)redsteakraw wrote:The micro has pins 11,12,13 am I wrong to assume they are the same just numbered differently?

As long as the board has the Atmega32u4 processor and the same pins are available, you are good to go!redsteakraw wrote:I have an Arduino Micro not the Pro Micro but the Micro, it has the same processor, would this be compatible with the project?

Re: Minimig (Amiga) core discussion
(pulling the Workbench screen by the title bar with the mouse doesn't feel perfectly smooth BTW. Does it on your setup ? -- on a real Amiga it is provided you don't use too many colours).

Re: Minimig (Amiga) core discussion
Hi ! Did you people also notice the mouse movement under the Workbench is difficult to master / inconsistent / kinda jerky ? I tried different mouses. I don't remember it was that way on a real Amiga but I may be mistaken. Do you have the latest version? It used to be jerky, but Sorgerlig has fixed...

You can cut one end of a cheap RJ11 6P4C cable and wire it directly to the Arduino/Teensy.

Re: MiSTer and Mega ST keyboard...
Do you want to connect it to the Linux side? As other mentioned, there are adapters for normal (non Mega ST) keyboards. The Mega ST keyboard connector lacks the reset signal that the other ST keyboards have. I don't know if this is critical for those adapters or not. I think the adapters will work ...

Re: MiSTer and PVM resolution?
It seems like PVMs are a bit flaky, people are having various issues. I have tried several consumer CRT televisions and they have worked very well with 50Hz and 60Hz, switching between those refresh rates without a problem. I'm now using a run-off-the-mill Philips 25", the picture is really good! Ma...

Re: MiSTer and Mega ST keyboard...
Haven't tried but maybe this project could work(?): https://github.com/devonshire/arduino-a ... d-keyboard . An Arduino Pro Micro clone costs only a couple of euros and the wiring is simple. I don't know if the Mega ST uses the same keyboard connection (serial data) as the one used in the project.

btw, setting ISERIAL 0 is not required. you just need to add override: uint8_t Gamepad_::getShortName(char *name) { return 0; } That's good to know, that solution is better! :) Ok, i've solved issues with paddles.

You can't delete field. Just make it empty (several space symbols) - it's enough. I made progress with the two controller adapter today but still having problems.
