Any other way to connect PS2 to Jamma?

Make your own scart to Janna.

 

There is a guide for their Saturn and from memory just need to add resistors for the ps2

To do it properly would require some work. Arcade monitors behave differently than consumer monitors as well as the PS video output which differs greatly to a regular arcade board's video output.

 

It's a shame that Tim doesn't produce the scart to jamma boards any more as he did everything perfectly and safely.

 

If you wanted to put something together yourself I would recommend utilising an RGB amp IC such as the THS7314. Connected via 1K pots wired as a voltage divider on the inputs. 75R on the outputs. LM1881 to clean the sync signal. You may need to consider audio as well, you'll need to convert from line level to speaker level.

Ahhh looks like im going the diy route lol sounds scarey tho I don't want to wreck my monitors.

If you don't mind paying then get in contact with Lemony Vengeance. He is building me a custom console to JAMMA adapter. It supports PS1/2/3, XBOX/360, Saturn, Dreamcast, NES, SNES and PC. It's not cheap but neither are parts and his work is always very high quality.

I might do that it sounds more simple than what I'd have to do with the jpacs I'll flick a PM thanks doomsdave

Damn he has some nice kit I thought he was a member here so I googled him. He should open a webstore I reckon his kits would sell like crazy.

I was going to purchase a scart to jamma 360 setup from Lemony Vengence, but then I was lucky enough to get a Viletim Scart to Jamma PCB from dragonlee and I made my own way of connecting the 360 controllers to Viletims' pcb

 

I've msg'd a guy that I purchased my Ultracade UVC from to see if he's got any viletim's scart to jamma as he seems to have a whole stock of old pcbs that people don't normally have.

Wow really I still haven't looked into it still getting over my dud eBay purchase with PS2 to Jamma [emoji24]

Does he have any scart to Jamma for sale at all?

Hi dragonlee I seen these on eBay on my search I thought these were only scart output not input? Have you purchased one of these?

Yes i have...;)..Use it for my digital crt cabinet for console...

I plugged in my Italian eBay board again I have picture it's a little dark and image is skewed a bit on the Astro city. I'll upload a pic when I get home. Do I need to adjust the voltage? Im still learning new things from this forum I just don't wanna blow anything up lol. I only ask cos I pick up the NAC cab and it plays my Tekken 3 and Sega STV PCBs but won't play my Pandora's is this the same problem?

He's probably got too much attenuation on the sync line and not enough amplification on the RGB lines. The sync issue could be compounded by the fact that your scart cable also has built in attenuation or is using sync on luma.

 

The retro masses have really screwed up sync with this needless obsession for csync and attenuation. An arcade monitor wants line level sync.

So strange he recons he had it going in his cabinet no worries. I've given up on this board. Bought a CRT TV lol
