Nintendo GameCube HDMI solution, recommendations?

Been looking for a while now for a decent HDMI solution for the GameCube.
I have seen this : http://www.knjn.com/ShopBoards_RS232_Parallel.html
Item#6117 (Pluto-IIx XC3S200 HDMI) (pre-programmed with GCVideo 2.4a for Gamecube)

And also a Plug and Play solution https://zzblogs.wixsite.com/home

What are the thoughts on these? Any of these better than other ones? I do not mind soldering.

Thanks in advance.

 

I recommend this or the dual HDMI/Analog output option citrus3000psi is coming out with for external. Internally, there's the Shuriken and Pluto options but citrus is also making a dual GCVideo internal mod as well.

There are more PnP options now too.

 

Thanks for the reply on this. They seem kind of expensive. Im thinking of doing the Pluto option as that seems like an affordable option. TBH, these Shouldn't be more than $50.00.

Thanks

 

That's citrus3000psi and collingal's design. I linked it in my previous post. It's not too expensive last time I priced it out. It also has support for IR remotes to control the GCVideo OSD and it also has mini TOSLINK and mini HDMI.

 

Alright I found the OSH park link to order the board. Is there a parts list somewhere?

 

Here is info on how to build the GCPlug:

I also have a kit called the GCDual, that is an internal solution with Dual RGB/HDMI. It costs $120. I have a pre order list and I'm currently processing orders. http://www.dansprojects.com/

I haven't released the design files yet for this project, but I plan to.

There is also another project call the GCMax, which is a plug solution like the GCPlug, but offers RGB and HDMI (Can't be used at the same time, do to cable restrictions) The CDK3404 DAC is sold out every where. I plan to update the design to an Analog Devices DAC. https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/UZZTO1KM


****Also, the zelda pro v3 is a GCPlug. As he's using my pcb and collingal's plug. I have zero connections to zelda, and don't really like the guy.

 

Looking forward to getting a final product when they are more readily available!

 

Do you have any of your internal hdmi kits on hand? If not can you possibly point me to which design of yours is best for someone who only wants hdmi. I am planning to update my htpc gamecube since I made it when the pluto baord was the only thing out there. The pluto back then having compatibility issues with most monitors.

 

So when I order the PCB from OSH park, will it have the components already on the PCB? Do I have to solder them on?

 

You have to buy each component and solder them on yourself.

 

Where can I find the part list for this? I cant seem to locate it.
Thanks!

 

The GCPlug is amazing by the way. Picked one up on ebay just before the holidays. Well worth the price for a Cube HDMI option. I was finally happy to see an affordable adapter I can use on any one of my Cubes. Can't say thanks enough for all the time and hard work invested in these wonderful little plugs.

 

Are all of them fixed at this point so they arent going to fry a system if moved?

 

That was only one design and it was very poor. The maker of that design also never credited Unseen, the creator of GCVideo. The maker has since went to citrus3000psi's design iirc.

 

I followed this from very early on, so I have an OG pluto board installed in my GC. Got one in my Wii as well.
