Time to get rid of it. Somebody please bid on this (expensive) turd:

Is there an electrolytic capacitor on the PCB?

I had a Zombies (Ate My Neighbours) cart that was completely dead until I replaced the cap with a new one.

The sync polarity is negative. I think you need an AND gate to combine them... But I could be wrong?

So, you just removed eight filtering capacitors?

Gonna keep this in mind when i get my hands on some CPS1 boards :)

That seems to be my problem as well. And my reply still hasn't been approved :(

Does it have something to do with my new signature?

All of a sudden my replies needs to be approved by an admin. What's up with that? :(

I've never made such a claim. I clearly state in the tread, that the function of the mod is to restore compatibility with an EU SCART cable.
...

Yes, that's the downside. All good things has one :(



The mod was never aimed at people living in NTSC countries. It's meant to help people who's owning a NTSC Saturn but are living in a PAL...

Do what? Include a charge pump?



You mean a 78L09? Sure I could use a linar voltage regulator, but I prefer the charge pump/switch mode approach.



Because modding the AV port is very easy...

Yep, but 4:3 stretched to 16:9 hurts my eyes. I'd rather just leave pin 8 floating and switch to the AV channel manually :)

Here's how it works:

SCART pin 8: ~4.5 - 7.0v = 16:9, ~9.5 - 12.0v = 4:3, Z > 10K.
SCART pin 16: 0.0 - 0.4v = CVBS, 1.0 - 3.0v = RGB, Z = 75.

If you put 5v on pin 8 the TV switches to the AV...

Are you sure? I have the exact same cable as the one in your picture, and it has only a single resistor inside the SCART-plug. The one used for voltage division on pin 16. Besides, who in their right...

Looks legit. Got yourself some fiiiiiiine RGB cable right there, yes sir.

I think you have the different AV-connectors confused. Only CVBS ("Composite Video") uses the RCA block. YPBPR("Component video") also uses RCA jacks, but they can't be connected to SCART. The...

I can name Sonic and his 5 "friends" on the first line, and that's it. Don't give a rat's ass about the rest... well, don't give a shit about Amy either.

I like Elf.

Still plenty of Blockbusters where I live. Mostly because the Danish internet suppliers are demanding ridiculously high prices for relatively slow connections.

But it won't be long before the...

Grab some bricks and build 14 more :D

That's nothing. I'm selling a truckload of my Sega stuff. All of my Saturn/Dreamcast and a lot of my MegaDrive/Master System.
And to top it off I'm getting myself a Super Famicom. How's that for...

I don't think you need to include it. But it's the most obvious change you've made, and therefore a good candidate for causing an error.

:D

You didn't include the pause button.

Found this description of a no-name converter in an old folder on my backup drive. Can't remember where I got it from originally. Hope it helps:

A01 -> 19 + 20 + 21 + A18 + B10 + Button
A02 -> 35...

Sad, but understandable. I've got a complete EU Master System set, and it just sits on the shelf. Purging the collection might seem like madness to some people, but it's often what's needed to get...
