American JVC X'Eye system different revision boards & missing parts fix
What's that other white cartridge plugged into the MarkIII converter? Looks like a coleco cart, but I assume it's an older MarkIII cart?
Is there an easy way to mod a Genesis/CD/32X combo to S-video?
Since the system has to pass-through the genesis video to the 32x, does that transfer use the extra pins so that it's getting pre-filtered video, or does it require the composite out? If you did an s-video mod to the genesis, would the 32x no longer accept it?
And then you've got to mod the 32x for s-video (assuming it's possible, have to search through the archives).
Do light-gun games still work with s-video output?
It would be interesting to compare direct S-video output to composite through my s-video powered converter. Even though theoretically, a Y/C-to-YUV-to-Y/C-to-TV conversion shouldn't be better than a Y/C-to-YUV-to-TV conversion, running composite through the powered s-video converter actually improves the picture quality noticeably (while, on the other hand, switching from a metal to a gold-plated connector has no noticable impact on video whatsoever). I assume it's just because the converter has powered amplifiers on the signal.
It's already interesting to compare the same games (games like Myst, Pebble beach golf, etc) on the 3DO (which has direct s-video output) and the Saturn (I don't have an s-video cable yet). Usually the Saturn has better color saturation and contrast, but the 3DO has better resolution and brightness.
