I recently got some Seibu boards, and they are some funky 55hz signal that the supernova can't do. Anyone have a suggested uprade path?
http://www.jrok.com/ I know he made a "sync cleaner" designed to make wacy syncs more usable. Check his Nov 16 2006 entry for details. I don't know if he sells/ever sold it though. I've bought his RGB NTSC encoder before, and it worked well. I'm sure somebody else makes them...or there at least has to be a schematic out there for one. Otherwise, the cheap way would be to try different TVs...some are more tolerant of goofy sync than others. These are the best bets that come to mind, short of upgrading to an arcade monitor.
"sync cleaner" will not convert 55hz to 60hz so the only way is to get a new TV/monitor that supports a wide range Hz.
Is the picture rolling around and jumping? If so then your TV can't handle 55Hz, some TVs (esp american ones) don't like signals less then 60Hz or so. Try an older TV, esp one with V-Hold.
I suggest an RGB monitor. I had trouble with Mortal Kombat and could not find any TV that would display it. All that crap went away by getting a Sony PVM. It's really the only way to be playing old arcade games. Especially those with strange sync rates. I only paid maybe 80$ for my 19" RGB monitor.
There are people that figured out how to stop that from happening when they are rotated 90 degrees. I know I saw something about that. But true, I wouldn't want to buy a monitor and then have to push it over on its side. Planning to use like an LCD monitor that rotates?
exactly what monitors do you mean? Normal RGB monitors can be put on side as long it has been turned off for a while (10min or so).
