CPS2 digital AV interface
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
I found this project via retrorgb. You can add me for 1 possibly 2 of these kit. Love to add these to my no cd superbios kit.
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
Wow I definitely want one
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
I would love one for my CPS2 and one for my CPS3 boards! I understand the FPGAs are in short stock, but will a pre-order system be created? Thank you for another amazing addition to the community!

Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
The 10CL025YE144CI7G will also work but is 30% more expensive. I actually just ordered 100 today for the DCHDMI boards. I want to release in Q4 and don't want to wait on the C8G.BuckoA51 wrote:We were all ready to go with DIY kits and installs to follow shortly after, but those darn 10CL025YE144C8G FPGAs are just out of stock everywhere.
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
Please put me on the list as well. I am interested in 1 cps2 kit and 1 cps3 kit. Cheers

Haha I saw your tweet and knew this was the order you were talking about! I am very excited that the dchdmi is coming to fruitation as well!
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
Please put me on the list for 1x CPS2 kit.

Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
Please put me down for a CPS2 kit
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
Do you think there's enough interest here to warrant me doing a waiting list? I'm not going to do pre-payment but at least that means people can guarantee a unit if they put their name down rather than having to scramble in a mad rush. Note the list would be for DIY only at the moment as I'll need to sort installs later.

Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
As long as it's a pre-built board that just needs installation (not assembly), then I think there's enough interest to make it worth your time. I can't imagine someone owning a full CPS2 kit not wanting to something like this...it just seems like the perfect addition.BuckoA51 wrote:Do you think there's enough interest here to warrant me doing a waiting list?

Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
I'd be interested in a waiting list if it's needed for me to get one soon after "release". What I'm also hoping for is some kind of internal power board to add so a barrel connector can be added to plug in an external power brick to power it. As it stands, right now even if I had the HDMI mod board I'd still have to hook up my supergun to power it. I suppose I could probably get a picoPSU and mod that in, but that seems like it'd be overkill.
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
I've got some left over from when I was making consolized CPS2s. Lemme dig those out.cr4zymanz0r wrote:What I'm also hoping for is some kind of internal power board to add so a barrel connector can be added to plug in an external power brick to power it.

Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
Hey, I read about this via UD's post on A-P, before I wasn't too interested (I mean it's awesome, but I have a HAS and OSSC that work great), but if you were able to put the power inside so it's a fully transportable, ready to go system, well..
Please put me on the interested list!

Yep in that case please put me on the list as well.
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
That would be awesome to be able to sell a power adapter as well. All that would be needed then is some way of hooking up the controllers.

I've got a whole kit in the works. Basically a 2.0 and DIY version of what I was doing a few years back. Targeting later this year.BuckoA51 wrote:That would be awesome to be able to sell a power adapter as well. All that would be needed then is some way of hooking up the controllers.

Also, does it take into account the potential conflict between 6 button fighting games and 4 player games that have 4 JAMMA buttons? (D&D games being the ones I know of). More detail in the "controllers" section of another post so I don't just copy paste a lot of it here viewtopic.php?f=6&t=61912

Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
I read that other thread on the info of the 2.0 kits and I will say that I am definitely interested to be on that list, even if Capcom has finally decided to release both Battle Circuit and Armored Warriors to modern consoles and PC next week.undamned wrote:I've got a whole kit in the works.

I will still keep the previous gear (Power brick, USB-Decoders, RGB Supergun) for arcades that don't get the same amount of consolised love like Taito F3

Yes I'd very much like one too and would also be interested in being a reseller if you're looking for them.mr. newbie wrote:undamned wrote:

Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
I'm not ordering a stencil or anything so its all hand soldering. Not sure if I will build more than one for my personal use. Maybe if I get some extra time, but can't promise anything.cr4zymanz0r wrote:Going to be selling any populated extras?
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
Hey folks,
a while back I was lucky enough to have zeruel85 assembling a digital AV interface and pre-install it into an A board he got for me as well (you rock man!) ..
I'm very happy with the thing (thanks marqs for the board design + software) and zeruel85 again for the installation.
It was until just recently tho that I realized some issues with A/V getting out of sync on my LG OLED over time. In fact, if I keep it running for a few minutes the lag keeps adding up to multiple seconds and counting.
I tried it on my capture card as well for some streaming. Instead of A/V going out of sync, I was getting some distortion in a fixed interval (maybe every 1-2 sec, can't recount) ...
From a pure listening diagnose it seems like the audio egressing from the interface is not fully fitting the buffer size expected by the receiver. I might be totally wrong tho!
Maybe zeruel85 can recall which version he installed on the board?
Any suggestions are highly appreciated as I wanted to make another (more in-depth) demo of the board. I did a quick test recording before: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-UKe9wtjHU
I recorded the issues with both setups, direct recording from capture card + camera recording of my tv. Please use headphones when listening to both, as you might not hear the gap/distortion within the audio captures.

Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
The board outputs audio at 48.19kHz (2x CPS2 native rate) which is a bit higher than nominal 48kHz. That small difference shouldn't matter as all relevant regeneration parameters are sent along the auidio stream, but apparently there are some sinks that can't handle it properly. A couple potential solutions come to my mind. First one is to fix output rate to 48.0kHz and drop some of the duplicated input samples periodically which should be possible with both 1.0 and 2.x boards although with former some inaccurary may persist. Second solution would be using ASRC chip (primarily meant for CPS3) found in 2.x boards to resample signal to 48.0kHz assuming the chip can handle somewhat unorthodox I2S stream coming from CPS2.
Speaking of audio, I traced the issue I had with CPS3 to signal noise. Shielding BCK line should fix that, and I also added a schmitt trigger buffer there for maximum robustness in v2.1 board. The FPGAs are also back in stock and the order process for 100 pre-assembled boards should start any day now.

Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
Why not doing the resampling by your own inside the FPGA? If you have some resources left (one M9K block for the filter you have to have) and can generate 24.576MHz for processing pipeline I can provide you the code I made for the N64 for testing.
Re: CPS2 digital AV interface
Actually I talked with DewmanSNK about that a while ago, and yes, that should be possible as there are ~20 M9Ks available and accurate 24.576MHz audio master clock can be generated on v.2.x boards. The idea was to have SRC4190 option on the PCB to enable ASRC until that gets implemented on the FPGA, after which it the chip be bypassed with SMD jumpers. It'd be great if you can share your code as that'd speed up development of audio side!borti4938 wrote:Why not doing the resampling by your own inside the FPGA?

Here you are: https://www.dropbox.com/s/h5xs60rizrl42 ... e.zip?dl=0
Some notes:
Some notes:
- I assume a 24.576MHz input clock on AMCLK_i.
- Asynchronuous inputs are ASCLK_i, ASDATA_i and ALRCLK_i.
- The N64 uses a BU9480F audio DAC
- see datasheet for waveforms.
- You may have to adapt this for the CPS2.
- Input bit width is 16bit, which is assumed by FIR filter.
- I programmed it in such a way that after acquiring the first sample a 96kHz impuls is generated for the FIR filter on APDATA_VALID.
- I used a IntelFPGA IP for the FIR filter. I have included a single channel and a two channel version in the zip-file.
- FIR coefficients are provided in separate folder. At the moment I use version 2.
- Output words have 24bits; from result I removed the two MSBs.
- Output of the FIR filter is downsampled to 48kHz afterwards.
- Output format on ASCLK_o, ASDATA_o and ALRCLK_o is 24 bit left justified (see ADV7513 programming manual)
