      ​@@RetroUpgrade You're welcome mate! I do searches before building something to see if there is anything like that already made, it saves time. What it is not yet done for the Spectrum are: a Cherry MX mechanical keyboard PCB for the Spectrum+ case (the key caps fits perfectly in the Cherry MX switch stem) and Spectrum +2/+3 that fits properly the Spectrum case, a ribbon cable flexible extension of the edge expansion port to avoid wiggling extensions connected to the Speccy (specially when they have buttons that you need to push them frequently) and a proper backplane with buffers and signal terminators so you can connect multiple extensions in the same time at your Speccy. Nadooms have made a prototype of SPECHERRY+ but it doesn't fit correctly the Spectrum+ case and it needs a supplementary +5V. Ideal it will be to combine his SPECHERRY+ design with the 48P-KDLX that has the proper size and doesn't need the +5V. You can find the 48P-KDLX schematic on the net.

      @@RetroUpgrade the RGB card will work only on the Spectrum 48K because the video signals are present on the edge connector. On the later models this signals were removed as those models have RGB output. I think you are cheaper and faster to replace the modulator with an S-VIDEO mod circuit and the image is crisp and clear. This is the solution that everyone with a Spectrum 48K use to output the image. On the Sintech Shop in Germany you can find a ZX-JOY-VGA expansion card that has VGA output and it doesn't use a Raspberry Pi for the signal transcoding, so no lag :)

    The Dreamcast i have does basically the same thing except that the fan seems to be working fine. Also if i test with the cover off and hold the lid lever down in the back the CD will spin, but if i release it will of course eventually stop spinning. If i press the lid lever again the CD will not spin anymore. My video and audio usually cut off at the main menu with the 4 options displayed or sometimes just a little before. I will gently bend pins upward as it's a U model and clean them. I'm not very hopeful though. Thank you very much for the video.

    • @RetroUpgrade

      Hi, yeah this issue is usually related to ether the Dreamcast overheating (witch i doubt) or that its not detecting the fan . only thing i can think of its is that the internal resistor that's used by the Dreamcast to detect the fan is damaged and gives wrong value , try measuring it and see what value you get , check the video for the value it should be cant really remember right now :P, if the value is off by 10% then try soldering a replacement across the legs on the PCB or remove the original one on the fan and add a new one , would just recommend to solder one between the legs on PCB like i do in the video . you could check the thermal pads on the Dreamcast if that doesn't work highly doubt they have dried out that much but can happen thanks for the view and kind words appreciate the view

      Thank you very much for all the information. I did go ahead and remove the power supply, clean the pins, and since I have an NTSC model I gently bent the pins upwards. As soon as I turned it on the first time the logo was there instantly, no start up sounds, etc. It actually looked like it was fixed because it stayed on long enough this time for me to go to the menu before cutting out. The next two time I restarted it seemed to stay on even longer. Should I bend the pins even more, or is it possibly a failing power supply? Thanks again.

      @@RD-ck7xj if that "fixed" it more it could be that one of the rails is struggling to keep supply up or maybe to much resistance on the pins , try scratching the pins up with some light sanding and for the connector use some contact cleaner spray and gentle scraping while wet, evapo-rust , WD40- contact cleaner or any other evaporating contact cleaner will do that has a rust inhibitor . if you have a multimeter please check the rail voltages while the machine is on 3.3v 5v , 12v should be pretty stable even under load if one falls after boot it can indicate that one of the components on the PSU is falling. there is a alternative PSU designe sold on Aliexpress: www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005658627931.html DreamPsu replacment PSU board hope you get it up and running :)

    Just ordered this scope. I'm exited to test it out 😊. Huge upgrade from my DSO150, which has served me well though, but for audio design, i need 2channels, better sensitivity as well as FFT. For months I've been searching, comparing prices and specs and finally came across a great deal. I also like the usb power method.

      Happy for you its a really good scope of you ignorer the quirks of the scope menúes. I am working on making this one portable installing a USBC power bank inside. There is loads of space

      Scope arrived in one piece and working very well. First time i switch it on, it came up in English, but the next morning it came on in chinese😂 Luckily I quickly found the English setting again by pressing the Utility buttton. There is an option to save the configuration internally, which i did. Now English is default and my last screen display appears when boot up. Cool.

      @RetroUpgrade 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi mate, So checked around because i haven't got that error, it seams to be a Python library missing : install the following library using git (install git first): git clone github.com/secdev/scapy, make sure you are in the same folder as your python install or your jailbreak folder. hope this helps, i think this happens when python is not installed correctly, you can also try to uninstall python completely and reinstall using the option to enable linked variables .

      No sound and video. Can be many things. Do you have Al the voltages from the PSU board. Cant remember but it should be I think 3.3v ,5v, 12v. . if that is ok there is probably a short on the mainboard. not imposible to fix but is harder

    Hello, it is an interesting project but I have some questions. In my opinion, the reason for using a scaler is not only to enlarge the image but also to generate an image (on LED TVs) that looks like the one We see on a CRT. I know this scaler can perform some type of scanline simulation. If this simulation is done well it can be interesting (that is, not only adding a black line but correctly simulating the blurring of the "pixels")... BUT, I AM MORE INTERESTED in DITHERING replication. The SEGA Megadrive/Genesis consoles exploited the presence of dithering in their composite video output to achieve transparency effects or an apparent palette expansion. From the same megadrive connector we can extract an RGB signal (scart) that has greater clarity, but loses the dithering, which is taken into account and used to generate visual effects. Does this scaler have a setting that allow us to recreate the dithering?. Using this scaler, do megadrive games look like they do on a CRT? Do we have transparencies and color gradients again?

    • @RetroUpgrade
      @RetroUpgrade 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi mate , Sorry for the really late reply TH-cam never gave me a notification of the comment , i agree scan lines can look really good if done right, regarding dithering i am not sure how it handless it , do you know any particular game that usually gives scalers issues , all my games seam to work (only tested 20-25 games so far) , i dont have a Everdrive for my consoles yet so cant load the Test suit for the NES/Snes/megadrive ill look in to it and let you know , i am also working on fixing the sync issues this version of the scaler has , it seams the designer that cloned the original designe didn't pay attention to interference and other factors .

    What flavor and year Volvo are you working on. I’m assuming it’s a Volvo though Those Volvo parts are used in a number of different brands. I ask because there are a number of repositories of automotive parts, specifically interior trim and functional parts and there are a bunch Volvo parts. I appreciate the 3D modeling but having those repositories in your back pocket gives you a little piece of mind.
