Sigma + Bakraid + composite video

Hi, I recently made a simlilar post regarding whether esprade would display properly through a Sigma Raijin and composite video - thanks for the help because it works great. I am about to purchase my second pcb Battle Bakraid. In browsing the forums I have heard of some sync issues on certain Raizing boards. Does anyone know if Bakraid will work properly on my Sigma through composite video? If so, the board is mine

Thanks a lot.

Battle Bakraid should work just fine on your Composite endowed TV monitor -- if it does have S-Video, it's recommended to use the S-Video output of your Supergun for better picture output...

Or just buy a S-Video to Composite Video adapter from Radio Shack, they sell them for $19.99...works like a charm for me.

Actually, it's the Seibu Kaihatsu PCBs that have odd sync rate output which would result in a slow rolling of the TV monitor, especially if you use an NTSC type of TV monitor. An XRGB upscan convertor will fix the that small scrolling screen issue (as with the Seibu boards) with no problems... ^_~

Thank you very much, I was hoping to hear that. I will give it a shot. I am however stuck with composite since thats all my tv has - no s-video (and yes its NTSC unfortunately, else I'd be rockin the RGB

)

The image may not be well centered though (probably a bit larger than your screen).

The image may not be well centered though (probably a bit larger than your screen).

Will most everything be visible? (score and whatnot at the top and bombs at the bottom)? I noticed that ESP Ra.de's image was slightly off center - vertically it was raised leaving a black bar at the bottom of the screen, however it was not so much that the score was not visible.
