Did you try all those from the command line?  I've long used Macrium from within Windows. It automates and allows setting differences in source and target.

God, I wanna get one just cos it's cool. I don't have a component TV, though. I remember years back you talking about component and vga differed only a little and that getting the...chroma?...correct would give the correct signal.  And what an evolution, especially comparing the original design in 2020 (six years!) to the latest.

Interesting about your color perception. A few/several people in the world see colors where others don't, mainly blue to violet as I recall. My eyes see a little different shade between them....though I don't know whether this comes from genes, as a grade schooler looking at the sun until I couldn't and my eyes watered shut, or the time in high school I whipped liquid detergent and bleach powder into my eye while opening the latter package and sloppily the former, that scored and filmed my eye for at least a day or two. Probably the last.

Speaking of red and green. In your initial thread post and in Austin_MVP's above, the red stands out, the green looks aqua.


@Austin_MVP: that looks Killer. I love newer CRTs for the quality of image. With the correct signal TVs especially, for clarity of image and fabulous convergence and picture linearity.

I have never done it, but I know people use compact flash cards no hdd’s or Sid’s This is the video you need.

I don’t use coin oips I use aattrack mode, had the same issue you did. Is your mame.cfg in the proper location? I’m sure there must be a way to set your file and folder location pointing to the files you need.

   For example, I need 3 files, a attractmode.cfg, Mame.cfg, and a Mame.xml for mine to work properly.

I just got a Ultimarc Pac Drive board and set up LEDBlinky (trial version for now)  When CoinOps starts the buttons light up and animate for a few seconds, then freeze. If I launch a game though, the buttons used will light up correctly. Exiting out of the game the same stuck buttons light up in CoinOps FE. If I exit CoinOps I get an error from LEDBlinky.

Any idea how to fix this?

I’m taking Omd’s andvice.  I  ordered a step-up converter. I will report back after I test it. Thanks again guys.

So far official groovymame 288 is not yet released. We will have to wait

Will there be a 0.288 release? I'm starting the process of a new build

Gotcha, well going to give it another try. Wish me luck , lol.

Seems likely you either got the polarity wrong, or it was way more than 12v. There is a chance too of course that actually, it was that monitors time to shuffle off this mortal coil
