custardo

I bought the the Co-Co Multicart and the LAST VC4000 adapter. It arrived a day before the DHL shipping estimate. Very nice piece of hardware, and it works like a charm in my VC4000. Rolo is a pleasure to deal with. I'm happy!

Definitely interested in a PAL copy!

Wel, as the card is Roland approved now , please put me on the the list as well! (lynx 1 model )

I am interested, PM !

First of all I'm sorry if this sounds a bit too much like self promotion, but I still think it fun enough to share here. To not let my collection of classic game consoles crumble into dust without them ever begin used, every Sunday night I'm live streaming classic consoles on twitch using real hardware where possible, which is at least 90% of the time. Yesterday I did a livestream of a number of my Lynx games. I don't think it's been done before, at least nothing that I could find. The stream is obviously over now but you can find the recording here (of course when you're there, you're welcome to join my channel ). Please ignore the awful commentary and the coughing, I have a terrible cold. Capturing Lynx footage turns out to be a pain in the ass. In the end, I made a simple camera rig from Lego Technic so I could move the Lynx about without throwing the picture out of whack (only takes a tiny nudge). Surprisingly this setup worked pretty well. The rig is not as stiff as I would've liked, so you can see a slight jiggle now an then. The overall effect is pretty good though , considering the poor screen my Lynx has. As you can see in the photo below, I mounted the camera above the screen. I had adjust the contrast for this, making it impossible to see the screen from a regular angle. I had to play all the games from the preview window of the streaming software. For a camera I used my regular webcam. I found that you really need one with manual focus, because you need to defocus slightly for a decent picture. This pixels of the Lynx display are so big, with autofocus on the camera focuses on the edges the pixels, creating a very unique but unusable picture. As the camera was mounted off-centre, there's quite a big variance of contrast in the image. I will try to remedy this with a new rig that will allow the camera to be centred above the screen.Not sure if this can be done with Lego, without it getting too bulky. Also the camera picks up a flicker that is not normally visible, it seems to be an artefact of having the contrast of the webcam dialled to 11. So in all, a fun experiment with room for improvement!
