    That's WEIRD. Thank you for posting in case somebody else has this odd issue.

    @ToxicMedz (TruHexen) Wanted to see if he could come up with a casing/mount for the front panel PCB for the chips. He did, and it came out AMAZING. That way it's not just a PCB Double sided taped to the underside of the front panel. Next up is the X-Array PCB!

    Flashing Cerb won't brick you unless you interrupt power. It is important to determine what you have inside. Have you ever opened it up before? If not, no better time than the present! But you should know this so that you can flash in whichever way you need to.

    I guess it's why they had the resistors there to prevent direct access from the AV port, which I assume they used for development and then added the resistors for retail production. I think that just nobody had really looked into it yet and Pre-Historic Man finally did.

    Any Idea what the difference between the two might be yet, or still probing? Wonder why they used two...

    That sucks. That seems to be a real problem now with our mods.

    It's coming along great! Nice work, buddy!

    Amazing workmanship and photography!

    You should definitely take some photos, man. Nice and crispy ones.

    The SPI2PAR is designed for use with parallel input LCDs. Preferably you would solder the Interposer directly to the parallel port using a low-profile pin header. If you are trying to use it with any other display, it would require code modification and be impractical. If you don't have a display with a parallel input, I would just buy one. They are pretty cheap.

    Can the stock CPU handle 720P in ANY format at all? I would love to put downscaled blu-ray rips on there. DVDs are not true 720. I believe they're 720X480, max. I believe early widescreens were just anamorphic.

    Some will say, RXDK, some will say NXDK, and some will say the MS XDK. What I like about the original SDK is the ability to natively debug over LAN on hardware, as well as windbg serial debugging alongside or when it's needed. I am only just getting started in software, so it's very helpful for me to debug on hardware every single time I add a line of code. I know that ryzee119 has become pretty adept at rapid iso compilation and debugging in Xemu, and that a section of the scene is opposed to using the original SDK because it is regarded as "Stolen" and "leaked". That's how I understand it, but if I'm incorrect, then I apologize. So everybody has their own preference. I think the way MS did it is very damn cool and I am of the opinion that at this late in the game, they really couldn't care less about it being "leaked." But I also understand that not everybody feels that way. A lot of talented efforts have been put into open-source SDK environments. But native debugging is elusive to those. ACTUAL software devs would be more qualified to give a solid opinion, though.

    Can you show a pic of the rear of the display and how you currently have it wired?

    Interesting that I have never seen this chip before now. I am utterly intrigued by solderless designs. Even D0 is solderless. The "Seal" is "Broken" in order to write protect once flashed? It's so hard to flash I don't think write protection even serves a purpose Shame that it's so difficult to program, it's a very cool looking piece.
  16. Bowlsnapper
    Does your license carry over to the new version? I can't remember if a trial is available for one use...
  17. Bowlsnapper
    I completely agree to all of this. FPGA would provide a legitimate hardware option, while eliminating the need to source EOL hardware. The last line resonates, man. OGX V2. However, there would need to be serious R.E. happening and there is no documentation for at LEAST the GPU, and it would have to be a damn accurate simulation of it, so that IS an issue...

    I got a crimping tool to do the JST cables myself, but I was using a microscope to crimp them properly (because they're all SH 1.00mm pitch) and it was just WAY too tedious so I succumbed to buying the cables from an Ali seller that I regularly buy my cables from, now. Sometimes, I'll buy pre-crimped wires in certain lengths that I will simply insert into the connectors, which is a decent middle-ground. I'll do that for my RTC and X-Array often, but I sometimes will order them full just for convenience. It's a trade off between money and time. However, I use tweezers to lock/fully-insert the wires into the connectors and I am sometimes unable to avoid slight deformation of the ends of them. It isn't a HUGE deal, but they're not perfect and it bothers me. I'll do pre-builts just to avoid that because I want them to look professional and nice. Damn your work looks great.
  19. Bowlsnapper
    I think it's worth the price, FWIW. It is pretty capable and very convenient It is also in active development. I am not aware of any alternatives.
  20. Bowlsnapper
    Steve, are you Able to take better pics? I like your project idea! Always in support of doing what others aren't even considering.
  21. Bowlsnapper
    Theoretically... I wonder what the cost would be of starting a production line with old machinery And licensed tech documentation and building brand new mobos with possibly upgraded processors... Like the SL6BY. These things are gonna start dying and I predict that it will be an existential issue for all of us pretty soon. At the risk of posting like I think it's still 2022.
  22. Bowlsnapper
    If you're crimping the cables for the X3/R3dux, then you are an absolute warrior, .
  23. Bowlsnapper
    I feel The same way. Very cool idea, Actually.
  24. Bowlsnapper
    Do both these chips have any kind of datasheet? Something that would explain why the mod only works on the A but not the B?
  25. Bowlsnapper
    Let us know if this works, dude. Maybe we can design an Aladdin Programmer!
