I’m the same, I don’t run stepdown converters with my cabs. None of the local places I help service cabs for do either. Barcode for example has 10 candy cabs, Don’s Arcade has 14 and none of them run stepdowns, and they run their cabs for many hours on end. I think it’s totally fine for this...

Also more on this topic: You might have the MS9-29S or SU variation. It’s perfectly fine to use the supplied 220uF 50V cap from the kit for C955. I’ve done this on several S rev chassis’s and it doesn’t pose an issue. Leave C403 alone and don’t worry about replacing it (unless it’s actually...

Looks like you got a MS9-29A cap kit which is the standard. I don’t think APAR has a specific T variant of their cap kits. The differences in caps between the variants are usually one or few caps having different specs. My advice is to replace those ones that are not in the cap kits with what...

Very nice, and much needed!

ETA is first quarter of next year 👌

Did you eventually buy a UVC?

Sami, we've dealt many times before. I've sold you multiple things and our comms have been fine in DM's. I'm just calling it the way I see it. I know for the fact you were frustrated at not being able to buy a UVC when you were going down the downscaling rabbit hole. You are very strong...

Agree to disagree. I’ve been running the UVC forever, probably before you even got into the hobby. You don’t need a complicated device as a full-fledged console up/downscaler. Besides, the OSSC Pro’s main function is upscaling. Downscaling is a nice addon feature, but the UVC is a dedicated...

Why does the OP need 1-3, though? He wants to run Naomi in his cab. As for picture controls, you are right. The UVC is a solid, no-frills downscaler. It does 1 job, and it does that job well. No fluff, no additional features to gum up the works. It puts out what you put in. Simple and just...

Counterpoint: The UVC is by far the best choice as bang for your buck. They do pop up once in a while. But i wouldn't call it an outdated downscaler. It does what it needs to do, and it does it well. Especially for your needs. I run 2 UVC's for my Naomi's, connected to my New Astro City's and...

Does that oem kick harness still have wires for P3 and P4?

The missed deadlines are normal. Alberto is a busy person, and this is, like you said a niche product. Just keep on him and he'll eventually get it to you. When dealing with this type of hobby service, you gotta remember to not treat it like amazon. these things take time, and most of the time...

Speaking of wad's, has anyone tried running Wiiware wads off this thing? I would love to get Gradius Rebirth working on this unit.

I’ll take it all. Pm sent

Looks like the exact bootleg I had.
