Scart cable

This is the right place to discuss on how to implement hardware vsync, adding a VIA or AY chipset, puting multiple roms, or how to design a new flash expansion card.

Scart cable

Post by Igotafro »

Today I made this Scart cable:

Amazing picture on my little TV :)
I'm going to add a switch for the vsync-hack and connectors for tape later.
I disconnected the internal speaker so I have sound on the TV instead.

That looks really nice.

I also made an scart table (much shoddier than yours, just to get the TV pic and signal RGB - no resistors, no tape-in...) and I must say the pic on the TV is fantastic. At least when compared with the horrible picture I got with the antenna connector...

A real must, imho.

At the start of my Oric revival, I bought a SCART off EBay made just for the Oric/Atmos, and I have to say its the cleanest, nicest display I ever experienced .. all we had in the 80's in Australia was bits of barbed wire to stuff into the RCA jack, whatever, lol .. my early PINGZAPSHOOT days, lets say, were fuzzy. :)

Nice work !
With the little plug you don't need a "French oric" (with a 5v-supplied RGB) :D
