Working on MiSTercade V2.1 now. No plans for USB C. The MiSTer Pi has a USB A port, not a USB C port. There's no way to make a nice adapter for that. You'll want to use a short cable.
I would say to try it as is. If it looks dim, do the 3 resistor removal brightness mod. If you see ringing, then the latest mod will fix it. I don't think I've seen any issues with K7000 but maybe I'm mistaken.
I'm not aware of any issues with MiSTercade V1 JAMMA video. At the risk of coming across rude, have you adjusted the video levels on your cabinet? I've found that people adjust their cabinet for a raspberry pi setup, then put in MiSTercade and think something's wrong.
Typical arcade video...
Thank you! Sadly, there's no getting around customs. Someone has to pay them, whether it's the reseller or the customer. I'll keep looking into solutions but I don't have anything immediate.
Problem solved! This should have occurred to me sooner, but I wasn't able to reproduce the visual noise issue on my MS8-29 chassis.
Solution:
Replace these 4 resistors with 220 ohm 0402 resistors.
Background:
MiSTercade V2 has a slightly modified video amplifier stage compared to V1.3. The...
I'm working with @Astro_jamma to see if I can figure out the issue some users are having with the video quality. I've done extensive testing and can't really see what others are seeing. So far, it seems to mostly affect Blast City cabinets, but some issues with MS8-29 chassis as well.
I've...
I'm not on AP much. If you have issues with your unit, please email me on my site. I recommend starting with the resistor mod - I can do it for you if needed. This affects the contrast.
It modifies buttons 5 and 6 for both players (pins 26 and 27 respectively). In the "JAMMA+ ON" position, the...
Regarding dim video:
I found a way to increase the brightness. It involves removing 3 (tiny) resistors. It will approximately double the video levels, restoring them to MiSTercade V1's levels.
I've already modified the remaining MiSTercade V2s and will happily perform the mod on units that...
I tested on my MS8-29 and MS9-29 Astro City cabinets tonight and couldn't reproduce the video noise/ringing. Since the issue doesn't seem to affect all cabinets the same, I'd like to try and narrow down the variables.
I have a hunch that it's somehow related to ground. Both cabinets that I...
Yeah, that looks fine. What happens when you adjust your monitor's remote pots, and the MiSTercade pots? It looks like it's blooming. Also, which version of MiSTercade V1 do you have? V1.0, V1.1, V1.2, or V1.3?
You can't simply swap over the SD card from MiSTercade V1, but that still shouldn't cause your issue. I haven't had any similar reports, nor can replicate on my cabinet. To rule out configuration issues, please read here:

The video levels on MiSTercade V2 are the same as MiSTercade V1, so I'm not sure what the issue could be with your monitor.
Adjusting the RGB pots didn't help at all?
Which cabinet is this for?
MiSTercade is back and it's better than ever!
What's new:
24-Bit Video Output: The new version supports 24-bit color video, enhancing the visual experience with richer and more accurate colors compared to its predecessor. PSX, Saturn, and N64 cores currently benefit from this upgrade!
Enhanced...
Do you have Coin1=Coin2 DIP switch enabled? Check the red piano DIPS on the XL board as well as the black DIPS on the main board. This one is a head scratcher, even for me.
Came here to say this. Thanks so much! 3 hours left. $50 off MiSTercade Versus!
MiSTercade V2 is in production and due in July. Works with MiSTercade Versus and Remote!

I'm not entirely sure. Can you try mapping P2 Start to a random button on your control panel? DK was a single joystick game with 2 start buttons for alternating play, right?
I think there was a blip with the updater script last night. Try again?
