CV64 3D using non CV64 3D scan doubler - Is it possible?
« on: February 12, 2008, 10:04:01 PM »
I'm wondering if it is possible to use a non CV63 3D scan doublerr with the CV64 3D? I have one of the cards and want a scan doubler but can't find a CV63 3D scn doubler anywhere.

Thanks

I love the speed of replies on here.

The idea was to get away from the 2 monitor situation as it's just a little tidier.

 Yes, you'll need to make an adaptor to take the 15 pin of CV to 23 pin of SD/FF, and hack the missing +12V & +5V from somewhere.


Basically 2 outputs routing into 1 monitor connector? That seems relatively straight forward as if I remember correctly only the native or gfx card output is output at any one time. Finding what pin output does what would be the hardest part. Anyone know this?

Thanks,

I use a CV643D in an A3000. The outputs of the CV643D and the A3000 internal flicker fixer both feed an ATEN VS291 external monitor switch that I got for about $30 (new) on EBay.


Sandpiper,

Does the Aten VS291 havve it's own external power supply?


I have also been looking at the VS201 which seems to be an automatic switcher.

See here

There is a manual on there and I've had a look at it but I'm not 100% sure this would work for me. Can anyone confirm? I'd like it  to be able to switch between the GFX card and scan doubler automatically, if this is possible.

Many thanks for the help.
