Re: Clone SNES joypad compatibility

I still haven't learned assembly yet to be able to do a comparison between the two.

DA and Jubatian will be able to give you a better answer to that than me.

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

My HDmatters SCART to HDMI converter arrived today and I'm happy to report that it works fine with the Omega when using either a CSYNC or a CVBS cable. I've not opened it up but I'm pretty certain it is pretty much exactly the same chipset as my LiNKFOR converter but without SPDIF - the UI and onscr...

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...
