Is this real or is it a VB emulator?
-
instead of this unbelievably useless video, why dont you explain WTF is going on here and where you got this adapter.
-
Hey, DogP!
About how many gates and I/O does an FPGA need to accomplish this? You really should put a bit of info about it on Project: VB...
Later!

Any way of connecting this to a parallax barrier LCD screen?
-
Man that is awesome!
-
Just answer this question, why dont you make a tutorial on how to make this, come on!
-
Any info on how to build this project? I'm interested in making something like this for my dying VB.

@pdaderko *Facepalm. Yeah, I don't know why I said backlight, it's definitely a linear array of LED's. Good call.

Actually, the real VB displays _ARE_ LEDs... it wasn't just a backlight for an LCD. It's basically a vertical line of 224 very small red LEDs, which are deflected across the eye by a vibrating mirror.
The games aren't actually B/W, but since it's monochrome (all shades of red), I chose to do B/W on the TV, since individual colored pixels require more color bandwidth than is available on NTSC, so it looked bad. There may be a fix, but I haven't gotten to it yet.

How about a new video, without copyrighted music, so we can see it without muted sound?

Heh, well there wasn't any sound except the music, so I did an audio swap with an authorized song, except I couldn't find any good songs, so I did "I'm feeling lucky" and got a random one... better than nothing, I guess ;-) .

very cool man! Did you get any sound? keep it up
IzzyCrazy1001 3 years ago
Thanks... the FPGA board doesn't do anything with sound... the sound would just need to be connected directly from the headphone jack to the audio input on the TV.
