Re: MiSTer PCXT

Does formatting floppies in MS-Dos work? I get an "invalid media or Track 0 bad error." This is with write-protect on or off. Even with WP on the disk becomes unreadable after the format command, which doesn't seem right?

Floppy B Problem

Using the PCXT it doesn't matter what I select as an .img for Floppy B the emulation behaves as if it's the identical disk as drive A.

core is PCXT_20230902.rbf

Re: MiSTer Video Options for HDMI / Component / S-Video / Composite / RGB / CRT / JAMMA etc - A Flowchart Diagram

Something that wasn't clear to me on the chart was that for SVIDEO from io board --> vga/component --> commodore monitor the green goes to yellow (luma) and red goes to red (chroma)

(SOG switch set to OVR not AUTO)

Re: RGB Issue with Direct Video

Thanks! I felt there was a bit too much contrast on HDMI_limited=1 but I can try it again. My gen1 genesis works just fine with the CRT via rgb. Ironically I thought the green level was way too high with the og hardware which is the whole reason I wanted to see how it looked via MiSTer. Right now I would say the MiSter looks better thanks to the vi...

Re: RGB Issue with Direct Video

My analog IO doesn't work with my monitor for some reason. No output at all.

Anyway, I found a setting in the INI file and adjusted it to this:
video_gain_offset=1,-0.02,1.3,0.04,1,-0.1

And HDMI limited=2.

That dialed-in the picture pretty well and both the Moread and Rankie look good.

Re: The State of DACs for the MiSTer and Direct Video

I just got a Moread today and the green channel is very faint - like SO low. Is that what it looks like if you got the bad chip?

Re: RGB Issue with Direct Video

Ah, ok I figured it either it works or it doesn't. There is another thread where people had luck with this one.

I'll try the Moread one and see since it isn't on either list.

Re: RGB Issue with Direct Video

I am using the same VGA adapter and mine is doing this (genesis core):

I don't think the hdmi_limited setting can fix that...
