Post everytime you get ANYTHING retro. We want to know (^v^)

Nope, as Baseley says S-Video is your top whack. Been playing it through my projector and it's been great fun though, i'll take some pics at night when it's dark.

You should get a PS2..

[Colin]

Nah, like I said speedy, it's only passing through on it's way to ebay.

[speedlolita]

Can you not get component out of that D-Terminal port?

[Colin]

Hmmmm, possibly I suppose? Not that I have a suitable lead to try it mind you.

[speedlolita]

Pain in the ass using google to find info on this as the terms PSX is miused so often.

Looking forward to some pics of the interface etc Ikobo

When I spotted the D-terminal port I had the same thought as you Speedy. I'm sure you'd be able to get a progressive signal out of that with a converter to component.

How did you come by it Ikobo?

[Colin]

I'll do some in a bit Randicoot, should be dark enough soon to show it properly. D-Termial to component, cheapest I can find is ?50, bit much for something that might work. I just saw the system for sale cheap and snapped it up. It was all down to PS Vita Ridge Racer, it was so utterly awful I wanted to play the PS1 original. Initially went looking for a Jap PS1 and ended up with this. Sleep deprivation and boredom played a hand in it............

I was under the impression that D-Terminal is identical to Component, but with a different connector - it boggles the mind that an adaptor would be ?50 (not doubting you, though!).

[Colin]

Dark enough to show it well already. Forgive the hastily set up projector, I had just put it away and just wanted to get the pics done so plonked it down anywhere!

Initial screen:



Plonk a game in:



Away we go:



Keep in mind this is only S-Video on an HD projector, but I think it looks pretty good:



Pics aren't showing it off very well, but you get the idea:



Standard PS2 colours if I remember rightly?:

Lovely bit of kit mate, always wanted one myself. The DVR function is useless in this country isn't it?

[Colin]

I would imagine so mate, yeah. To be honest, I have no intention of pissing about with any settings on it, going to play some games and that's it.

[Brad]

That is utterly gorgeous. Best looking console ever IMO.

[speedlolita]

Still think the standard fat PS2 looks nicer. Taken a while to appreciate it though.

You can get component out of a PSX

I'd be interested in purchasing that Colin. Once you're done mind.
