Yes can confirm, 2x mini HDMI. Not sure about the driver board as I haven't opened the case.player2 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 19, 2021 2:02 pm Just wanted to clarify something: The dual-HDMI version has 2 mini-HDMI ports, yes? Does it also use the VS-RTD09703-V1 that was mentioned in this earlier post?
Yes, one of my friends has the VGA version. Works great for them, the main difference is that it is quite a bit thicker, and can’t be powered off USB.
This kind of handmade units leave a lot to luck sadly. Mine is not getting very hot I've found. Played for 4 hours straight no pb.Vespa wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 6:10 pm Well, it stopped taking a signal from HDMI so it's pretty useless to me right now. I've opened it up for those who are curious, I'm not optimistic about getting any money back.
No heatsink on the chip, it did get very warm when I got to play for 10 minutes or so.
Yeah, just luck of the draw really. Not too fussed if I can't recoup anything, it's not like it was an expensive item.Neocaron wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 6:26 pmThis kind of handmade units leave a lot to luck sadly.

Reading the comments on the seller's page I see people do get refunds or replacement units. Try it.
No thermal pad for such a chip should be fine. Maybe you short the HDMI port? I hope you didn't use the hdmi cable given by the seller, it's awful. XD
Thanks for all the feedback everyone.
I guess the “secret” is out — update your Jotego cores, and enjoy shadow masks with your scanlines.

Excellent that does work. It's a shame that the board does not pick up on any HDMI signals, I assume something has been shorted but a handy tip to see the service menu.Doozer wrote: ↑Wed Oct 27, 2021 4:54 pmHi,
To enter the service menu (I think it is what you are looking for), power the screen off and remove the hdmi cable (no input signal must be provided). Now, hold down the menu key while powering it back on. You should see the service menu. In this mode you can launch the burn in test or fine tune the color temperature by adjusting the R G B offsets (hdmi signal have to be provided in that case).
Some precision on the different boards. I own both the Aliexpress version and the VS-RTD09703-V1 board. I can confirm that the two cards are different. I am experiencing the same behavior as others with the VS. Mine does not support 50 Hz signal.
Nevertheless, I am convinced this limitation is only firmware related. The Aliexpress version eeprom (identification RTD2011 FW V001) have to be dumped and written to the VS board. If this is successful, it would allow people to flash any RTD255x version with a firmware supporting full 48 - 64 Hz refresh rates.
Nice job! I'm waiting to get my hands on my display and once I do maybe I can try to dump the firmware from mine as well.Doozer wrote: ↑Thu Oct 28, 2021 12:07 pm Some more info. Dumping the firmware is possible via the I2C interface from the HDMI connector (no soldering needed).
I have extracted the two firmwares and they are showing the same mode identification for the build product tree:The flash type is the following:Code: Select all

Flashing can be done if pin 3 is lifted up from the board. Otherwise, special RTD25xx flashing tool is needed. I have ordered one, but I am also tempted to lift the pad to test directly.
Things are going into the right direction for the moment.
You don't really need to wait, it's technically already done:
Kinda, yeah. They all work.epistaxis wrote: ↑Thu Nov 04, 2021 9:18 pmYou don't really need to wait, it's technically already done:
