Re: Is Uzebox the most elite console platform?

There isn't a fully open source platform that has an active community apart from the Uzebox that I can think of. Every other platform has some small key part that isn't open source, like the firmware for GPUs in the case of Linux.

Re: How many Uzeboxes have you built?

Made hundreds of kits but only fully assembled perhaps two dozens over the years (including the portable and pc versions).Now that I think about it, I really need to take a "family picture" of all the models made. Prototype, Fuzebox, Avcore, Uzeboxes, Uzebox JAMMA, CF's, portable...quite ...

Re: Uzebox 3D printed enclosure!

That's a good reason to stick with the current cover as default.

It's cool that we have a alternate version of the case for those who fancy being able to swap out the logo.

Re: Clone SNES joypad compatibility

What bugs me is that all the Uzebox roms out there are compiled against the fast controllers. Since we can't recompile all the roms ever made, there's going to be a mish-mash of some roms out there working and some not causing confusion and frustration. Its not ideal but at least there are only a f...

Re: Clone SNES joypad compatibility

Good to know there is another compatible choice for those who want a joypad but want something a bit different to the normal SNES controller or a straightforward clone.

Re: Uzebox Ω - easier to build, SCART friendly Uzebox

Thorsten has uploaded v1.2 of the Uzebox Omega gerbers to his github repo. I have ordered 10 PCBs from PCBWay which cost the ridiculous sum of £10 including postage. The only visble change you'll notice with v1.2 is that it uzes a different type of RCA jack, one that is available from Farnell. Chang...

Re: Uzebox Ω - easier to build, SCART friendly Uzebox

Slawek has started to build his Omega, he sent me this pic of his progress today: Slaweks-Omega.jpg Will Slawek beat DA to having a fully working Omega after DA's multi-month head start? Slawek has the advantage of having a SCART TV, no doubt, so he has got the TV standards gods on his side. SCART s...

Re: Official Uzebox Bill of Material (Oct 2023)

The first post in this topic as well as the Uzebox BOM both link to this controller which is no longer available: https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/32819725298.html Every clone controller I've bought off AliExpress hasn't worked properly with my Uzeboxes. I'd recommend that next time you update the BOM...
