oxidgb-pico VS Main_MiSTer

Yeah, havent touched the PIOs just yet unfortunately - do want to dig into them further but Ive not gotten the chance so far. I do have some work in progress DMA code at https://github.com/j-selby/oxidgb-pico/blob/master/src/rp2040/dma.rs, but there appears to be some issues with the svd2rust crate (or the Pi's spec), as some read/write registers for DMA are marked read-only - need to investigate further.

You can find the code for this at https://github.com/j-selby/oxidgb-pico – should be dead simple to build (including on Windows), though let me know if you have any issues!

And for a fancier alternative, consider miSTer.

You need to update your mister ini. The ypbpr=1 setting is no longer supported and you need to use vga=ypbpr instead. This was changed when s video got added. You can get the latest ini here https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer/blob/master/MiSTer.ini

I went ahead and read the thread on it and... yeah, Sorg is firm. He cites a couple reasons which I understand though fundamentally disagree with. Oh well.

Consider getting an actual A500 or a miSTer at that point.

Just get a pc and get a new microsd card and follow this https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer/wiki/Setup-Guide and see if it works.

Hello all, I recently started Youtube channel, I want to focus on gaming & especially retro games/systems. Each week I plan to upload video of this type, I have interest in both hardware emulation eg Mister fpga & software emulation such as; OpenEmu etc. For example FPGA emulation acts the same as original hardware so it is higher quality & software emulation relies solely on mimicking original hardware. Which do you prefer/why? https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer/wiki/Arcade-Cores-List The link above; will be were I go through each core & decide which to make Youtube content of.
