RGB mod

Well, I looked in the sticky, looked for a RGB mod, and saw none. I know there is one, so can someone link me to it?

thank you, kind sage. I hope my heartfelt thanks will warm you for the next 10 years when you are... FROZEN IN LIQUID CARBONITE!

Oh, and is c-sync still intact on the multi out pins on the N64?

You'll need to use the luma s-video output in place of csync, this contains the sync information. The PSone LCD has an LM1881 to seperate the sync from the luma signal, so you should be fine. It worked for me, anyway.

Thank you. I have two n64s to work with and a psone screen! >_> I have unfortunately no games as my brother gave the n64 to the rec room for the senior high youth group at my church and in return gave me a psx. (I objected of course!) He also took all of the games. So I cannot test it yet.

family guy... if I'm not mistaken...

BTW... I have been debating wether or not to do this RBG hack and want to know... Is there a huge noticible difference between using component and composite on the PS One Screen?

Actually, I was surprised by the sharpness of composite on the lcd screen, it seems the LCD screen has a much better decombing filter thatn most TVs.

Judging from the output when the screen is hooked up to a PSone with RGB, there would be a slight sharpness increase but not much. Plus, you will have to build a signal amplifier if you want to have agood image (it's normally quite dark since Nintendo didn't provide extra circuitry to make it usable)

So actually, RBG will look worse with out modding the signal from the mobo?
And BTW, I read that most people hook it up to signal weakened resistors but when you hook it directually to the chip, you get a full signal.
