X68k -> FMT UR20 + OSSC

Post by Elrinth »

Hi!

I have:
* Fm Towns UR20
* X68k
* X68k vga adapter (https://gamesx.com/wiki/doku.php?id=x68 ... itor_cable)
* VGA splitter (https://www.ebay.com/itm/1pc-1-to-2-250 ... 2693974759)
* OSSC
* HDTV

Incoming:
FMT vga adapter (https://www.ebay.com/itm/FM-Towns-to-VG ... 2757030865)

Can I show the x68k graphics on both the FMTUR20 by connecting both vga-adapters and and simply two vga cable to the splitter AND another vga cable to the OSSC?

I saw there is difference between the signals of VGA in FMT and X68k: https://gamesx.com/wiki/doku.php?id=av:japanese_rgb-15

I do not fully understand what you are saying but:

X68000 = RGBHV

Towns UR20 = RGBS

Pinouts are quite different for these two machines.
If you are not careful you will fry something.

I'm saying, I wish to connect the X68k to the fmtowns screen while at the same time to the ossc. Which cables would I need for such an endevour? Will the ebay one and the AD-D15NE suffice for this?

If you use a RGB interface with one processed output and one passthrough output, then you can connect the monitor to the processed output (and have the interface convert from RGBHV to RGBs for you) and the passthrough can feed the original RGBHV signal into the OSSC.
