Taito type x2 system on Egreet II, Capcom I/O question?

Post by SNK-NEO-GEO »

Hello all,
Question - I wanted to play the Taito Type X2 games on my Egreet II but the Egreet II CRT is only 15khz and 24khz.. I thought that the Capcom I/O would downscale the 31khz from the Taito Type x2 to 15khz but I did not see that.. am I missing a setting at the I/O or at the Type X2 system to make the system work on the Egreet II CRT? Thank you for reading and for your input.

DIP Switches
Setting Dip Switch #2 to ON will enable 720p Video Output; setting Dip Switch #2 to OFF will enable 480p output. The Type X2 only outputs 31khz video; older monitors which only display 15khz/24khz video will require a VGA to CGA converter.
p.s. not holding a grudge, happy to set aside differences.
