Minigun Supergun - An Open Source Supergun

BentLang said:
I don't have anything and the guy that gave it to me keeps telling me to buy a genisis 2 cable and it will work (which it dosen't). I've never had a supergun and normally just use an empty jamma cabinet. As far as a monitor I have an ASUS and Hp also an old flat screen tv with avi/hdmi and a CRT TV.

You said it showed a VERY dark picture "no color". What display was that on? Does it support RGBS? Does your genesis cable support RGBS?

Choices

Genesis Model 2 HD RETROVISION Component Cables

Or

Genesis Model 2 RGB Scart Cable

Make sure your display can accept 240p via RGB Scart or COMPONENT

You can also use a transcoder to convert RGB Scart to Component

Use a device like an OSSC to scale to HDMI Displays

This ^^^^

Im guessing you are using a traditional Genesis model 2 9pin composite cable but not sure because you haven't specified ( 9pin --> Composite (Yellow), Left Channel(White), Right Channel(Red) ).

As others have mentioned before, the issue you are having is that the Minigun is designed to be used with a SCART / BNC or Component output. If your display only has composite in, you will need to do some modding or find a way to convert RGBS to Composite (there are tons of cheap adapters that do this).

You mentioned its an old Sylvania which I dont believe any ever had SCART here in the US and definitely not BNC, maybe it has component?

Sorry I thought that I put 9 pin composite earlier but I failed to put the composite part. My apologize.

Composite video is not output from the minigun. That is why I asked if your display supposed RGBS. The minigun only outputs video in RGBS format.

You can buy a Genesis 2 RGB scart cable or the hd retrovision Genesis 2 component cable.
 
After that last post and a few PMs, an md8 to JP21 was needed. I have had this a few times from people with the minigun, I think one of the upscalers uses JP21. I made a few bidirectional Euro SCART to JP21 adapters and a few of @Frank_fjs md8 to scart adapters. So if anyone is needing one hit me up.
