Re: Groovy_MiSTer Core

This is amazing.

I wonder if this could one day replace a generic video card solution such as emudriver so that we can run modern 240p pixel art games at 15khz easily, like sonic mania

ie. A virtual display driver that windows sees as a second monitor..

Re: MiSTerFPGA Y/C Out Module (Direct - S-Video / Composite Output) - Update

Good to see these boards are now available in shops. Two things: what's the difference between passive / active one? the MisterAddons board says "NTSC only" - I don't remember, were the cores also NTSC only? The active filter refers to the luma trap being an active one, rather than a passive one. The active luma trap filter cleans up rai...

I can't speak for the new version of antonio's 'MikeS1' board personally. I would love it if someone posted video or images confirming composite working on it with the luma trap on the proper side this time, and no other issues on a CRT.

Are people having issues with s-video on it?

Yes, the path from HDMI to dongle to various analog outputs (including the VGA>BNC cable) is on there in light blue. Lag should be same as via Analog board.

Red and Blue screens have no issue. 2. On MikeS composite, 240p suite full white screen, ther...

Re: S-Video and Composite Over Component Output! (Custom Cores)

So to get a proper composite output with a luma trap, is there an available solution, or is the circuit still being developed? I want to try this, but not until I can do it safely. Antonio V. said he can provide ready-made adapters once he receives the circuit design. Thanks! You can make your own: https://twitter.com/qda/status/151949976144691609...

This might get me thrown off the internet, but since I saw on Twitter that you got a PVM, any plans for getting that waterfall blending working on those? 😊

use composite blend option or use composite signal from the MikeS core. Both work great for the waterfall.

Better wait for the revised board I guess.. Or for Mike's boards, which are actually being meticulously tested.

I've tried NES core with some games and I did not see nothing strange
NES doesn't have much rainbow artifacts to begin with.

Are you able to test Genesis core via composite (since it has a lot of rainbow artifacts via composite usually) and maybe post results?
