paddles use Left and Right as buttons, guessing that had something to do with it.

If you are asking about atari star raids gakes ( kaey padf ), the GSP does not have a means to do that. the ability in there but it needs to be told what buttons to look at. The Solution above about Bliss-Box offers a way, but the GSP is not supporting it. 5200 game I would assume are the same. Didn;t it have number on the button of the screen? If you run emulation on the GSP it should have built in mapping, so that would work.

trying to do some investigation on the input here. Looks like many usb adapter work in game, but few in the menus. Most common game pads do but some really odd balls work. The neogeo mini for examples works in the menus. I guess there is a USB ID approve list? WaverBoy, you are limited to the poll rate set by the GSP, the Bliss-Box will suggest 1ms ( lowest USB setting) but it ultimately is up to the OS to decide. My guess is it honers 1ms. In that video he talks about paddles IIRC. For the Bliss-Box the paddles are on the dial and slider of the the USB HID. So my guess is they will not map right, the GSP is more then likely assumes that to be on the X and Y axis of the main or secondary sticks. Just a guess.

Hi all, not here with full specs but I think if we get a few bright minds in involved here we can make this way cheaper. I found 2 new approaches. 1) Using the TL866. First thing I found pretty quickly was that the eeprom burners were pricey. So looking for alternatives I found this https://www.pcbway.com/project/shareproject/SMD_Adapter_for_TL866_Minipro_EPROM_Programmer_27C322_27C160_27C800_27C400_8c188447.html or https://www.tindie.com/products/easypcb/27c322-27c160-27c800-27c400-tl866-minipro-adapter/ This lets you use the cheaper 40 pin burner. This thread maybe helpful if there are issue. https://www.amigalove.com/viewtopic.php?t=763 2) using a arduino. I'd be shocked if no on thought about this, this was an idea that I was kicking around and just so happens someone did it. https://www.kernelcrash.com/blog/using-an-arduino-uno-to-program-eproms/2016/04/16/ He didn't make the schematic very clear but looks like its a simple job. I do have a few uno boards around but will need to get some eeproms. I wanted to add this, because I can not really tell what it is. Has a 8 pin interface for programming. maybe helpful maybe not https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005003292900160.html?src=google&aff_fcid=ba5d6dd30ecf4fddb6b574a8f5daaf84-1703607080331-07644-UneMJZVf&aff_fsk=UneMJZVf&aff_platform=aaf&sk=UneMJZVf&aff_trace_key=ba5d6dd30ecf4fddb6b574a8f5daaf84-1703607080331-07644-UneMJZVf&terminal_id=f9980fb3b1e14e9386f4744efc3a0339&afSmartRedirect=y&gatewayAdapt=glo2fra

Hi could I order one for self assembly, and if so what does that save me? I have pro tools and experience, is there any chip programing required?

did this ever happen? -- never mind I see the order thread now --

Yeah the Bridge does require a way to get data to it. Interestingly it uses LLAPI, a tech that is open source. So any adapter could be used with the bridge if that protocol was used. Bliss-Box's first adapter was aimed at adapting any controller to USB, but most of the user base clear was after matching controller to game or maybe a mix and match kind of thing. There are many alternative firmware's allowing it to work on other console and that seem to spin up interest to do non USB consoles.

I have only a few controllers but I also have control issues.

For anyone looking to do this. Bliss-Box released its Bridge. The Bridge Connects a 4-play in single mode or Gamer-Pro and sends controller data to a console. The Bliss-Box Gamer-Pro and 4-Play are USB devices that are intended for a USB host. However in the same way the BlisSTer works, all Bliss-Box devices can speak a universal protocol over two wires. The communication can take place over the USB lines without disturbing USB hardware. When you connect the Bliss-Box Bridge to a Gamer-Pro or 4-Play, it begins sending controller data at a fast rate of 500us per request. That is twice as fast as the fastest USB poll-rate. The Bridge takes this data and then speaks to the console. The console now controls the polling rate (typically 16ms) and while the console waits for the next poll, the Bliss-Box gathers the payload.Meaning you can use any controller you want, on any console. So far 7 cables have been made but you can make your own if you have the skills. It comes with the USB so that one it ready out of the box. examples: paddles on the switch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMpZM_aIm24 Analog stick on the intellivision https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJeOz1Dzmds pippin on saturn https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KelYLpxnJTk&t=9s wii draw on mario paint https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KelYLpxnJTk&t=9s

so crazy thing here, by literally "poking" around I found putting my finger on r33 and its neighbor fixed the issue. So I figured it's a bad capacitor or lack of a steady voltage. knowing all resisters do have some capacitance I played with a few values and found anything from 1k-10k works. Since the RCA mod required a 6k resister (r33) to be removed, I just used it, and great picture. Kinda of scary, but it does work and had been running for an hour.

I picked up a 5200 from a goodwill that I had to mod for RCA. It seems to play games and works ok but the color is very washed out. I played with the choroa settings a bit but it does not seem to help much. Anyone know what components and chips might cause this. I have replaced the 4050 hex buffer chip, that didnt get it.

oh here we go. https://www.ebay.com/itm/234753102859?hash=item36a860140b:g:Lz4AAOSwTy1c9rdL&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA4Gi0o%2F3FaR5ZnzZoUqg1f%2Bp92h%2Bp6p43HqbJ3gGYFgdW34Fw4A4ay7f%2B26HMBwxFO8CAGUmsM7ptz67M2nIZvPo5IIiD89ZP%2FXl0yLJnJD43po7cs8QZKrPQVK%2BprPZYvJ5XNpt0YQ2S1Z0Ks31yWn5Cia4TWRSWK3HuZ%2FvZp%2FQFmM76o8l92GpPG195eTKDDOWWml5MVv60Cb41fngoOEtp8JxJm2ct1nT8pnpIGaBjbSy%2F%2FJ8ZcA3JZpCfVrcnqu%2B3FaB3ufHQ%2FL2IgDtoailyCIM7PrkF%2FwSnMO2LnFb2|tkp%3ABk9SR97rvrCbYQ

isn't that the same as the controller? no much like it out there bit the other port ( controller calibration) is: https://www.ebay.com/itm/394340501722?hash=item5bd08688da:g:kSMAAOSwCptjeAof&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA4BUO5ikMGHSyHtSq%2FkM3a6XkWTvIO%2BKT6mF%2FPRQEYyTsc9VtPTNNPQB%2BSIt54%2FWk%2FdLhCmEcijcQRKa2uNKiUwxnHtbQ%2FGlagCgfHLexhDDjPP37ABCmq8oIdx%2FZCptu31aqJhmiuYMIzBflqb0foeQnTiIliiw36FMBuNVIJBu0h70PPjCXffL9%2BJNnJVuXLlYTmszG0vIwlBDgu6P4hAoXFJmgPSk1RRHJemgYwi6Io%2B9lS8YxqsfrCfOB6h8UxyNhasnjVS1XjLF9Cf9leDtn65xmUNpNxKGiS1Dzk30e|tkp%3ABFBM6IbfrJth

Does anyone know the specs on the chroma pot? I tried to clean it but it didn't really help enough. So I removed it and There is no way to open it without out destroying it. Looks like one side the resistance goes up and the other side it goes down. But it is in such bad sahape I can not tell.

yeah the donor was a working console. Thx for the info, I will see what I can do.
