MaDDuck Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) I am tight on space and as such, I cannot have all of my collection setup all of the time. Two weeks ago, I unhooked and boxed up my WIIU, and dug out the TI for the first time in about two years! I don't have the same VGA monitor that I used to use on it anymore, so I had to pick up some new hardware to go from VGA to HDMI with sound. I hope that it all works when I hook it up fully by next week! Will this introduce any latency, or not? Hopefully it is a smooth easy setup! I will be using this device to do the conversion: https://www.ebay.com/itm/373594805649 And this to capture the audio line from a standard composite audio jack. https://www.ebay.com/itm/111539908069 Everything should arrive by next week.

Having similar space limitations, I bought a little composite-to-VGA adapter since my spare flat screen monitor is a few years old and only has a VGA input. They sell a similar gadget for composite-to-HDMI. When I turn on the computer, the adapter takes a second or two to sense the signal and adjust the display format, but there doesn’t seem to be any latency after that. So I can leave my huge old CRT monitor in the basement. If I really miss the blur and scan lines, Classic99 has thoughtfully replicated them.

MaDDuck Posted March 12, 2022 Author Share Posted March 12, 2022 I have an F18A inside my 99, so I already have an extra sharp VGA signal. My current monitor (TV!) has only HDMI no VGA at alll. So I need to convert the VGA and sound to HDMI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaDDuck Posted March 14, 2022 Author Share Posted March 14, 2022 The adapters showed up in the mail today!! Everything is hooked up and works perfectly, I love my F18A. The picture isn't stretched out, it is centered in the middle of the screen. I could not be happier! The only thing that would make it better is getting one of those multi-carts that arcade shopper sells... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
