Act-Labs Light Gun

gajaman:
Before I start... sorry if the answer to this is elsewhere, but if it is I can't find it or I don't understand the terms.

Anyway, I want to know if Act-Labs light gun will work with my cab set up.

My PC TV out is what I know as "line out", those little red, yellow and white cables, one for video and one each for audio left and right. This goes into a scart converter (the same used to convert a PSX to scart). Then into a scart switch box then into the TV scart socket.

If required I could loose the scart switch box.

Can I use the Act-Labs gun with this set-up?

Malachai:
You would need the TV-Out version of the Act-Labs gun if you're using a TV as your monitor.  I don't think they are available yet, but I think you can still pre-order.  They say you can use 2 guns at once with the TV-Out version.  Once someone can confirm that dual guns work well in MAME I'm going to have to get a couple.  ;D

I am not 100% sure of the connections there will be on the TV lightgun. You could go check thier site. I know it does S-Video and I could only assume it does composite as well. P.S. they are going into production!

Hey, I was just on there site....here's what they say about the TV out version of the gun....

Requirements:

o PC with available USB port
o Win 98SE/Me/2000/XP
o Video card with TV-out capability (supports S-Video output only)
o Composite video cable (male-male) or S-Video cable (male-male)
o TV with S-Video-in or Composite video-in connection

I think they're going to include an S-Video -> composite converter.

Also regarding the two players, I emailed them about this and the response was that the MAME team was working on including support.
