    How have you got it connected up? A supergun?

    Have you used a proper RGB cable and is it going into the correct RGB scart socket on your TV? (there may be multiple sockets, but one will probably only support RGB)

    If it's a Supergun then there will be some sort of sync adjustment, either a pot or a switch, give it a try.
    Different Superguns have different video output options, check the Supergun model number and Google it.
    Single slot mvs boards are fairly compatible overall, I have had mine plugged into all manner of displays via both 2 versions of Supergun and through my cab with no issues.

    Its some form of supergun for the moment,
    I waiting on a delivery next week so I wont need the super gun ;);)

    Its got a vga at the gun end and a scart at the other.
    I just stuck it in one of the scarts. I thought they'd be the same.

    Problem is I dont have a crt tv so I had to go to a mates gaff!

    Try gently twiddling with any available knobs.
    May be best to do this in private....
    If you are going to adjust something, take care to remember where it is, so after you try a new setting you can move it back if the effort is ineffective or makes it worse.

    Will check it out.
    Do you think its just a sync problem tho,
    I mean it looks to be working and this isnt really an issue with the hardware itself.
    So if I put this into a jamma cab I'm laughing


  • Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    On the cd-i
    I'll post pics when it comes :)

    That looks like the vertical sync messed up a bit. Not sure if its adjustable, the MVS outputs composite sync.

    Is it plugging into a TV via SCART or what ?

    Probably no point trying to diagnose the problem since that isn't going to be it's proper home by the sounds of it. Wait til you have it plugged into your cab and then see what it's like, you should be able to adjust the picture then if need be.

    My mother calls them scarTH leads. Drives me mad :D

    Regarding that supergun, just so you know, they can be pretty pricey. Once you receive your delivery you should be able to sell it on for a nice little sum.


  • Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Its actually not mine,
    I've got a loan of the mobo,super gun and a box of carts from my cousin.
    Fair play to him,he's a living legend (he probably reading this ;))
