Title: Hooking up jamma to mame cab questions, NEED HELP URGENT!
Post by: the3eyedblindman on July 11, 2004, 03:02:48 pm

I am starting my mame cab soon and am using a 27 inch tv as my monitor, I was wondering if it is anyway possible to hookup all the jamma equipment to a tv as you would an arcade monitor,  I also wanna run jamma pcbs on here and i dont want to have too ditch my tv, any help?

I don't think you could use the video aspect, but the controls?  Sure.

it is possible to use a tV with Jamma pCB's but you have to use a video signal converter such as the JROK http://www.jrok.com/hardware/RGB.html (http://www.jrok.com/hardware/RGB.html).

As for also using this with a MAME system, that is a different issue. I've not been able to confirm if anyone has been able to use say a multijamma kit to work with a JPAC.

Hope this helps a little.

WEll lets ask this then, does anyone out there have both jamma and a computer hooked up to a tv  in their cabs that both work?
