Check it. Pics of a PC Engine Duo-RX I just decked out with S-Video and Region mods. Pics show the innards of the system during install and after all connected.

Note the closeup of the homebrew S-Video encoder (c.t.h and JROK eat your heart out!)

It looks fucking GREAT

it seems nobody over here has a clue about region modding PCE, it's just about the usual (and easy) RGB mod
is it that complicated? do you have some more detailed diagrams?
if it's too hard to do it by myself, i'll ask somebody....i just dont know where to check
got some american Hu-cards I'd like to play

That is sweeee-eeeet D-Lite. Beautiful work!

The region mod is covered in a TG16/PCE faq. The one of the hardest parts is finding an 8PDT switch. Thanks to D-Lites help earlier, I was able to get some.

Awesome work. I need to learn more about video circuits. :drool:

No RGB for this fellow. Didn't need it.

And no fans for japanese systems! Don't need it since the heat sinks are properly located on these bad boys!

VERY nice work, D-Lite. I'm a total stranger to the world of the PC Engine, but I think I might start to check out what they have to offer. I often find that looking back into the systems of yesterday yields much better results than those of today.

So where's the blinking LED, just in case you want to switch game while in the dark? :make_fac:

Oh yeah, my DUO is a Japanese one, and it has a fan. Granted, it is not a RX model :p

Charles

p.s.- Man that fan really helped my Duo keep its cool during the recent heat wave that we had in the Bay Area. Thanks for a great job Dean.
