Re: Racing Wheel Controllers?

From what I remember it does center by default when no FFB is active.
Also there's n FFB driver for it. FFB only possible when connected to the xbox360 console.

PCM audio is super fast on some games.

I dont have the new firmware so not sure if that changes things. Overdrive is in the actual display's menu itself. Menu--Advanced -- Over Drive -- On and OD Gain 100, And yes, DVI turns off audio but will give it a bit extra bandwidth which stabilizes cores like GBA for me at video_mode=13 My display does not have an advanced menu.

DVI enabled (tested as it does not output any sound) and I can't find this option on the screen's menu.

Re: 9.7" iPad Retina Screen Perfect for MiSTer, $60 Fully Assembled 😄

Native resolution (video_mode=13) does not work well with my screen. It blanks out in some MiSTer cores, specially jogego ones. On other cores it works perfectly.

640x480 is not for MiSTer. I want to connect a Dreamcast via VGA (480p) to it.
The board my friend have does work. Mine does not work at all at this mode.

Re: 9.7" iPad Retina Screen Perfect for MiSTer, $60 Fully Assembled 😄

Unfortunately I cannot directly answer your question, I need to first test the resolution your are targeting. I assume your reference to VGA is about the resolution and not the connector. I only have a dual HDMI board fitted with RTD 2550. But this should not matter for a resolution test. The resolution alone is not enough, what is the refresh rat...

I could not find any adapter do to this. Then I decided to...

Re: GunCon 2 Arcade Machine

Ok.
The F10 key should open the calibration screen even without the composite sync.
The beta zImage_dtb file is required as it contains the guncon2 usb driver.

If it still not works, try asking in discord on the controllers channel.

The GunCon2 usb should be connected directly to MiSTer. And you need to get the beta files (the linux image with the guncon2 driver) for it to work.

The Y axis will be always a little off.
