Sorry this thread is a bit old, but I didn't want to start a new one to ask this question... In the Mister_Main repository there is this logo: https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer/blob/master/logo.png Unfortunately it is only PNG. Does anyone have the original vector version of this logo (lik...

FYI and FWIW, I purchased my 6TIN ICs from Mouser in the US in September and had no issue. The date code is different, but I had zero issues with the very few 128s I built.

I used that part on my boards. It works.

Man, seems there is a huge price jump to go from a 256M chip to 512M (with the Alliance brand anyway, from ~$3.20 to over $10, and Digikey doesnt even have stock :) ). Is the concern of multiple chips the power draw it will place on the DE10? If not, would it be feasible (assuming matching trace len...

Maybe but that looks like the old scanline effects and not a filter coefficient effect. Correct this is the Scandoubler FX option. I mostly use MiSTer through a CRT without the scaler so I'm not used to using the scaler options for scanlines. I did however set the scaler to Nearest Neighbor to get ...

The settings are: video_mode=1920,48,32,112,1440,3,4,39,184828 This seems to work well on my 1440p monitor, which fortunately has a 1:1 pixel mode. You get a nice 7x6 integer scale on the SNES core.

I didn't want to post this in the scaler thread since that is supposed to be for the devs, but some people in there were asking about 1440p video modes. I personally had success making a 4:3 1440p (1920x1440) custom video mode. The settings are: video_mode=1920,48,32,112,1440,3,4,39,184828 I tested...

I do believe they are exactly M3 sized. I have other M3 standoffs and the same screws fit.

Is it possible to add a feature so you can set a default folder for each core, for example the NES core you can set the default folder for where the roms are so each time you load a game it will automatically open up at that folder? MiSTer already does this, but the folder names are hardcoded. For ...

Adding this option as standard will give false assumption MiSTer requires a special procedure to shutdown which is untrue. You are absolutely correct - it is strictly a user experience thing over any actual technical need. But I think there are products that exist in which the designers had to take...

Sefirosu deserves the credit here of course. I just validated the solution was correct.

Sorgelig wrote:if anyone care, then would be good to find out why MiSTer asks for 2 IPs. I have no time for this investigation.

Sorgelig, I believe we have the fix for this now. Please see my post, and Sefirosu's post above.

It seems that both dhcpcd and connmand are requesting IP addresses: After moving or removing /etc/init.d/S91dhcpcd Only one IP requested Sorgelig, I can confirm (and some others I have chatted with) that this is indeed the fix for this double IP issue. Maybe some others can respond here to confirm ...

I don't think it is the job of the equipment downstream to apply filtering to the SPDIF signal, it should income "ready" for reproduction, aa filtering already applied. Agree with this statement fully. Would it make sense to apply all filtering early enough in the signal chain (using an audio term ...

i hear the difference, but it's unclear if sound go through the same route or not. Maybe something outside of MiSTer distorts it. These were recorded using the same device digitally - an M-Audio MT2496 which has a coaxial SPDIF input. HDMI audio was captured using a device that breaks the digital a...

SPDIF uses different kind of filter than I2S(HDMI) I'm curious (and probably JamesF as well) why there is any difference in the data between HDMI/I2S and SPDIF? In theory, can they not be the same datastream, just presented differently depending on the output? My apologies if it sounds like a dumb ...

TOSLink doesn't need too high brightness. I use random non-name red LED for TOSLink. I don't think it's brighter than 100mcd. Sorgelig's specs do indicate a low mcd diode indeed (per WIKI https://lcsc.com/product-detail/Light-Emitting-Diodes-LED_f3Long-legs-Round-with-edge-Red_C2155.html - which BT...

So the question is, are there any dangers here for using these generic no-spec LEDs. I really don't want to damage my DE10. Please forgive my ignorance and thank you for your time. I have found that most generic 3mm/5mm LEDs are similar in specs. I'm not an expert in LEDs but I believe the current ...

I have this same issue over analog with one of the latest versions (I think the build just before FM sound version.)

On the topic of analog video issues... The top part of my screen has a slight "wiggle" to it (to use a technical term ;) ) for the NES core. Not sure if this is something other are seeing as well. Using YPbPr and at least two of my IO boards show the same. Not noticed on other cores. I was seeing t...

Very interesting. Never noticed this on my real NES/Famicom hardware. I'll have to take another look. Thanks!

Wrong CAPS. They are 100nF or 0.1uF In the SDRAM thread, other builders had better luck with 1uf versus .1uf with the Winbond chips (Sorgelig himself made this suggestion). My understanding is C1-C6 are for noise filtering on the VCC line (The Winbonds are apparently a little more sensitive to VCC ...

The IO Board will be outputting 3.3 Volt "TTL" for sync on VGA port pins 13 and 14. It does have a resistor in series, IIRC, but it's still recommended to add an extra resistor of say 680 Ohms in series from pin 13 to Csync on your monitor / TV. (so a 680R resistor between VGA pin 13 to pin 20 on t...

In the game Metal Combat: Falcon's Revenge (U)!, the enemy character is not displayed. I know this game's control device is not supported, but in the future it might be. To add to Sorgelig's comment, this game does have an enhancement chip that is not supported by the core yet. (Unless that's what ...

I have built a few boards so I'm listing them here as available. I have parts to build more depending on interest. Details/Disclosures: SDRAM: Currently Winbond** W9825G6KH-6I (Industrial temp version) w/ 1uf Caps (again, see SDRAM thread for more info). PCB solder mask is GREEN , NOT Blue . Hand so...

Kitrinx has a build of the menu with NTSC timing. I use it and it works (though a little wobbly on my CRT - but that just may be my set)
