The main advantage to connecting to some 4k tv's is dependent on the compatibility of that TV with non-standard resolutions. The MiSTer can output a maximum of 2560x1440 resoultion with pixel repetition mode (which is actually doing 1280x1440 in a stretched way skinnier than normal, but it's telling your screen to double the pixels horizontally to ...

The newer version of the MiSTerAddons case should at least prevent the microSD card from falling in which is good. I use precision tweezers to get the microsd card out of mine, and yeah I just use ssh and SMB to administer the files on the card if needed.

How did you get the MAC for the specific AP? Did you use "iwlist wlan0 scanning" on the MiSTer? don't forget to use the key_mgmt in the network brackets as well network={ bssid=AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF psk="*********" key_mgmt=WPA-PSK } The key management method has to be declared explicitly I think so that linux will mix it with the p...

Arcade - Tropical Angel: - Fixed color palette to more closely represent arcade monitor output (thanks to David Haywood for the picture). - Added color lookup table for more accurate RGB333 to RGB888 scaling in place of the simpler concatenated scaling. - Updated framework (pll optimizations from FPGAzumspass which saved logic and helped meet timi...

The two don't compare or compete, though. I'm not sure if I can amend the official docs in any way. Agreed, I like that you didn't overlap in the overall approach. If you ever find something that you think should be in the docs but aren't there feel free to submit a pull request, raise an issue, or shoot me a message anytime. I'm very open and gra...

That's correct. Totally normal. In this menu the first is the native resolution and the second is the scaled resolution. The Menu core (what you see upon boot) is a bit special and different, but 59.8hz is normal for analog video. Cores of different systems will have different native refresh rates that vary widely so you will see this number change...

It would be pointless using a Pi to do this. A Pi can already do what this core is doing, natively, without having to go through a network. You can even use original resolutions, and refresh rates, at 15hz, connected to a CRT. So can a PC or miniPC. I think the idea is that the MiSTer solution is lower latency than a local video card with all its ...

If you reset the game after selecting language, that god awful sound won’t appear anymore. Are you testing with the Mega Drive core or the Genesis core? The Mega Drive core resolved this issue last I tested. It was the same problem that Total Football had with the Genesis core, it was very likely a bus arbiter timing problem. This game needs to be...

Man, this system must be the hardest ever considering the time it's taking. I mean we got a PS1 and N64 core since it's announcement.

If you give it to Robert Peip, he will do it in 2 months tops

Both of you shouldn't act so entitled and toxic.

I am not very familiar with Mednafen so I looked it up. I think nearly all the cores it emulates are already on the MiSTer. I am curious why we would ever use Mednafen with this when we already have the cores available. It's not meant to be negative, but just a genuine question. Is there something Mednafen gives us that the MiSTer cores don't? Reg...

Lots of things could be done in theory.

Whether or not it should be done is still relevant because at the end of the day someone with development skills with free choice to do what they please would be the one to implement it.

Would be interesting to see it running one of these days.

BlisSter won't allow lightguns to work afaik, whereas SNAC will, so suggesting it as a replacement of SNAC is not always going to be appropriate. Also, BlisSter does not have any meaningful advantage over many modern usb controller adapters such as the following: https://www.tindie.com/products/timville/triple-controller-misteranalogue-pocket-adapt...

In general whenever I start a new arcade core I just map my buttons there in that core once and then I don't have to think about it. It's pretty quick when you get used to it. Part of the issue is that each core is made by different devs so the button mapping won't be 100% consistent between them, as the button indexes and how it's mapped sometimes...

Does the PSX core still get any benefit from dual RAM modules? Or any other core for that matter?

It gets a measurable but completely imperceptible marginal accuracy boost to sound timing.

Could just do it with some cheap jumper wires.

Do you have any screenshot examples from a capture card?

aberu

It's not possible and it likely won't be added as an option. You should just get a longer cable and put your left speaker in the left position and your right speaker in the right position.

aberu

Both SCART and Saturn-type cables have been known to get the Left and Right audio signals swapped, so also good to confirm with the user regarding their cable type.

I believe this is what you are looking for? Someone else please confirm.

The rated operating temperature of the cyclone v soc on the de10-nano is -40°C ~ 100°C, it's the automotive rated chip. It should be fine.

Well there's a few things going on there... Hot to the touch is a function of the thermal conductivity of the material and how fast it can transfer heat to your fingers. Aluminum is a very good thermal conductor. So a minor change in temperature may be more apparent. There has been more added to the framework and more added to the Main MiSTer binar...

I never said anything about the core needing a fix. MSLUG2 clearly has a performance issue that people are trying to solve. So a 3rd party core, unstable or not is a good option to have. I was reading up on it because I heard X was quite similar to 2. There was talk about hacking X to be like 2 here but I wonder if anything came of it or that it w...

What needs to be fixed about it? The core meets timing requirements when I compile trbocode's latest version. I don't think doubling the clock is anywhere near the equivalent of what Koston's mods to his own boards are though. The current build is like clocking the board to 24MHz which is a bit excessive given 12MHz is the default. The crashes you ...

You need specific drivers for Windows 95 for joystick support typically (going off of memory here). Right click My Computer --> Properties --> Device Manager. Check to see if the com ports have any errors and check to see if the game controllers have any errors. It's usually because you need to install some kind of game port driver which I don't th...

If you are using the latest unstable release of the Saturn core, did you make sure to also use the latest unstable build of the Main mister binary?

There were changes to both today to make CHD loading also work. You have to have both updated if you are using the bleeding edge unstable release of the Saturn core.

I'm a big fan of the Dualsense as an all-rounder. I have gone through testing and trying out dozens of controllers and it's the most solidly built, very low latency over bluetooth, and just feels the best in my hand. The only time I think I need anything else is just for N64 for which I use the RetroFighters Brawler64.

Try this one for me:

Yeah that is not expected. dvi_mode being enabled only makes it so audio is not transmitted over HDMI, that's it. It really shouldn't impact hdmi video when turned off at all.

Can you post your whole MiSTer.ini here in case there are other anomalies?
