Forget digital output - any idea if it's possible to build a cable to connect a 1084S to the DVI port? Apologies if that's a stupid question but some days I just need to sit in front of a 1084S.

Sure - you use the RGB TV out mode here, with a DVI to VGA adapter.
I output composite sync on H sync and a logic high on V sync for Scart switching.
Then use a VGA to Scart or VGA to 9 pin D cable. I do this here.

Great. Cheers Mike.

I've got a 1084S-P and a 1085. Neither of which have SCART. Gutted.

Apologies for taking the thread in another direction but how feasible would it be to build a daughter board with Catweasel type functionality (and maybe a C64 disk port and for the hell of it, a c2n port)? Before anybody suggests 'why dont you do it' I cant even spell FPGA without giving it a huge amount of thought.

Will it include cut-outs for the daughter board?

I'd be up for one at 10-15 euro's.

TANGENT ALERT!

A couple of quick questions:
How long does it take to load a core on fpga devices? Is it an instant thing and is there a limit to the number of times you can write to a device (like flash)?

If I wanted to use a Keyrah interface would the core need to have support built in?

Thanks.

the core loads in the blink of an eye so you won't even have time to read the "credits" before the Amiga boots (abou 2 seconds approx).

Using a keyrah would require USB support.  Stick to a cheap PS2 keyboard.


That's a shame. I'd hoped to use a keyrah for that genuine Amiga/C64 experience (but I've also just noticed that there is no A500 version).

Is it possible to use a harddrive image with kickstart/Workbench 1.3 on an FPGAArcade/minimig?

One of the systems I'm hoping to replace is an A500 with an A590.

Thanks.

I mentioned earlier in this thread that an add-on board with a floppy interface to connect a 3.5 and 5.25" drive would be awesome. SID sockets would also be a bonus (basically a catweasle).

Is it possible to use an A4000 keyboard plugged into the PS2 socket?

The new USB adapter replaces the PS2 connector and can be fitted on any all RevB boards.

So no possibility of using an A4000 keyboard anymore?

Hi Jim,

Any possibility of this being expanded to include other platforms on the FPGA Arcade (e.g C64/ST)?
