Not good...

1. Try different Pots.
2. Are you taping the RGb off the cxa chip or the output connector?
3. Try a Sync splitter circuit

Is there any known arcade boards that the neobitz is incompatible with? :conf:

The Svideo/Composite part will cause some problems......

But the Component did not give me any problems with optional use of a sync splitter.

NeoBitz would most definitly not work with med/high resolution games or games that required posite sync.

So it will work fine with CPS2, and PGM boards?

The Neobitz boards tends to have problems with PGM using svideo.
The picture rolls, even with a sync splitter added. D-Lite can shed more information on this. It works perfectly fine in component though... weird.

It should be noted that the Svideo and Compsite are more for conveniance..... They dont work well with most non-neo boards.

If you plan on using Svideo or Composite for non-neo aplications, you should get a JROK......

There are two circuits on the Neobitz board -- one for Component video, and then one for SVideo/Composite. They both share the same input lines (for ease of installation), so certain incompatibilities are bound to come up since not all arcade manufacturers play by the same rules :/

I don't have a PGM system to test with or I would look into this sync problem for you guys -- anyone want to loan me one for a couple days ;)

As for the Genesis issue. I've dug my Genesis out of the closet and will look into this when I get more free time.

Try Pulling the RGB off the CXA chip....

Use the sync input pin and the RGB output pins... You may need to use a large cap or build an amp circute for teh RGB....

Sync should be "pure"
