If all you want is to be able to play vertical and horizontal, why not have a rotating monitor? or use a 25" monitor so the vertical games are close to actual size? just some thoughts. -Oh, I just had a brain fart. Remember those Vs. Cabinets with two monitors in them, what if you had a cab like that with one horz and one vert monitor? that would be cool! :o |

The controls would be easy. Just make two control panels (one in each cabinet) but wire them both to the same relative spots on the Ipac, i.e., player 1 start button on Control Panel 1 is wired to the same spot on the Ipac as the player 1 start button on Control Panel 2, etc. A wiring block would make this easier/cleaner, as pictured in this thread: http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=7920 As far as video signal loss I think it depends on the splitter. Black Box makes some high quality ones that claim that you can put your displays 300 feet from the splitter before there is noticable video quality loss. |

I think I'm gonna get it. Now what to do with my other cab that I spent so long sanding and priming, oh well. Anyone in the Waikato in New Zealand want a free cab with glass bezel and duel coin mech? |
