2 Slots consolized: Where can I get video, audio and voltage under the board?

[Fandangos]

I just received my 2 slots that got repaired after being dead for almost an year.

Now I need to figure out where can I get R G B Sync audio left and audio right to avoid a mess of cables going over the board.

Is it possible?

Can I get +5v from under the board too? Or is it only possible to get on the jamma connector?

Xian Xi is awesome, I don't know why I didn't went straight to his site.

Thanks skate

No problem, good luck

I don't want to open another thread just to ask this so I'll ask here to save space

Do you think it's still worth adding coin and service switches if you already have unibios?

Since unibions can trigger those with a controller I don't see the point in doing so but maybe I'm missing something.

If you're already installing the UniBIOS, you don't really need to add a coin or service switch. If you were keeping the original BIOS installed, then you'd want those 2 buttons also.

I don't mean to hi-jack this thread, but seeing as I don't have full posting privileges, I apologize in advance. I am also going to be consolizing a 2-slot (MV2F I believe, I haven't received it yet) and would like to use an 8-pin din connector for euro-scart video (Framemeister). I know this is possible to do, but what i would like to know is if it can be done with stereo sound and if there is a how-to / diagram i can follow for it. Thanks in advance!

This gives you all the points you need

Thanks for the link!

I have one more question and you might know the answer, would that type of setup still require an encoder such as the neobitz?

If you want to hook it to a normal NTSC TV without using something like the framemeister, you need to encode the video.

You don't need an encoder if you're using a direct RGB connection to a device that supports it (such as framemeister or sony PVM). Otherwise, you need one.

Thank you very much! That is what I thought, but it was somewhat confusing. Hopefully I won't run into too many other questions.

Ok, so I received my MV2F today and upon removing the metal cover I saw some questionable damage to the Toshiba chip directly to the right of the memory card reader. I have attached pictures, could someone tell me if this will end up giving me issues?

It should be fine. This is a confirmed working board, right? Never make a CMVS out of an untested board.

It was listed on eBay as fully working. I have no way of independently testing it though.
