Advice on this X360 -> JAMMA device

Post by Skykid »

Put this in a spoiler tag because worried it will be huge (I uploaded from my phone and can't edit the size on the mobile version of Imgur).

Just wondering if someone can identify this console -> JAMMA device that I pulled out of storage. I'm fairly confident it's for the Xbox 360 based on the pad shape and USB lead. I used to use this in my cab, although I can't quite remember how I configured it. Am I right in thinking I need to run the SCART lead from the 360 directly into the SCART connector on the board?

The reason I'm asking is I'd like to set this up inside another cab but this time with an LCD screen. Am I right in thinking that all I need to do is plug in the edge connector to the cab loom and the cab's sticks and the buttons will operate the 360 without any additional work? And as long as the 360 is connected to the board via SCART, will it still display on an LCD?

Thanks for the help!

That is a VileTim at the bottom with an unrelated padhack on the top.

So you need a XB360 scart cable, put that in the VileTim.
Link the padhack with your XB360. Hook up the Jamma and you are good to go with interlaced display on your CRT.

Ah it's a Viletim board (slaps forehead). Of course! Thanks so much for that. I dug this out and couldn't quote remember the setup process without a 360 to test. Anyway, that's awesome, I just wanted to know if this will have any issue outputting to an LCD connected to JAMMA rather than a CRT. Because I heard SCART to VGA is finicky anyway, and this is sort of similar in a very roundabout way.
