I finally took the MVS plunge after being hooked on a neo geo cd, but wanted some more titles that never made it to the cd. I’ve done a bit of research before posting this huge mess, but I was looking to get some feedback on the best way to go with the setup I have/ what I’m trying to accomplish.
The MVS board is a MV1FS – there is a great tutorial on JNX for that specific board in regards to consolizing it. (Stereo, powering the board, using the neobitz encoder, which pins to pull what from, etc) But I have OSSC and was wondering what type of supergun/RGB scart output I should go with considering I am fine with using the built in controller ports, pulling the stereo from the head phone jack and this is the only Jamma board I have or plan on using this setup with. ( Also a built voltmeter would be good so I can monitor voltages)
-NeoBitz encoder on JNX website looks good as per the tutorial, but the best output it would have is s-video (which is still good, but I only have 1 tv with s-video and it’s on its way out)
-Retroelectronik stuff sounds like it isn’t the greatest, but some do have a voltmeter and a scart port.
-JROK 4.1 encoder also looks like a good solution, it has all the inputs and even RGB passthrough pins which I am wondering if I could rig up to a 8 port DIN socket for RGB/Scart out?
- Sync Cleaner, not really sure if it would need it, but I see that some people use them in certain setups.
-Also I just wanted to confirm – is it true you only need the 12V on this board if you want to amp the stereo signal? (just using the headphone pins with 5V 3A is fine, if it goes into a receiver?)
Thanks – any help would be appreciated… Ideally I would agree that a prebuild supergun or CMVS is probably the best way to go, but this seems like a fun project to get into – I’m just on the fence in regards to how to approach getting the “wants” done without buying tons of stuff I don’t need.
