Hello all. After my successful RGB mod for my lovely N64 (thank you Link83 and viletim!), I feel that I can try on a little easier mod.
According to the wiki (http://www.gamesx.com/wiki/doku.php?id=av:dreamcastav), grounding pin 7 will select the 15kHZ mode. I'll be applying this (http://hanky.dk/pr/1_stor.gif) mod.
When I have that switch set to 15kHZ (pin 7 grounded), is there a way I can somehow set HSYNC to ground but somehow cleanly replace the signal with CSYNC (pin 10)? When I switch back to 31kHZ, CSYNC will be grounded and the signal will now be HSYNC. The idea is sort of like a railroad switch (http://www.sounddoc.com/lamyswitch2lo.jpg).
I have also read that simply using the LM1881 chip to get CSYNC out of CVBS will provide a much cleaner CSYNC rather than getting it straight from pin 10 of the Dreamcast. Is this true?
Also, will I be able to get away with just using 47μF capacitors on each color signal?
Thanks!
