Que tal, muchas gracias por tus amables comentarios.

Del tema que me comentas, puedes usar Dreamcast sin duda. Obviamente geometría y relojes difícilmente serán correctos en emulación, pero la ventaja que puedes tener es que todas las plataformas compartirán los niveles de color y contraste, ya que estarás midiendo la PC y las tarjetas y equipo que generan o convierten el video.

En general cada fuente es distinta, por eso es necesario medir con cada fuente/consola y recalibrar cada vez que se cambia o tener un compromiso entre distintas fuentes. Pero como en tu caso tu única fuente es tu PC, los problemas no serán esos.

Thanks for letting me know it has been of use =)
Hope for a repair!

Program RAM is 4 banks of 131072. So it should be the dual chips at:

• IC108: SRAM: LH5P832N-10
• IC109: SRAM: LH5P832N-10

Keep in mind anything in the path form the CPU to the program RAM could be damaged: traces, logic, etc.

Hello, I was away when you posted this and showed to L Oliveira. As you stated that was PCM RAM, and the other is the backup RAM.

You'll need to check all control lines as well as address and data lines. Check out this diagram: https://www.retrosix.wiki/hardware-overview-sega-mega-cd

 I honestly don't know, since I didn't make, nor maintain, the psx version. Sorry

Yes, will post when I get to it hopefully soon. Thanks

A beta is in development, no release yet.

Que tal, no no la hay. Saludos

Si claro, fue sustituída hace años por el Monoscope, que hace lo mismo mejor y mas fácil de usar

You can't use the dvd/cd since it has protection.
Yes, the GC controller works with the wii, but only in supported software, it won't work on thewii menu

Wii would be the easiest:

For gc you'd need extra hardware

Hello, the dol files are executables that run as homebrew. You run them from Swiss or the home brew channel. 

How do you boot homebrew in your system?

I made a beta years ago, but some limitations from the sdk and the hw stalled me

Gracias a ti =)

In really glad to read that, than you. 

it's been released now.

Take care!

Thanks for your kind words =)

Yes, I am sorry. It will be releases this week. I am just fixing some other details

Please try downloading it from here and installing it manually

Have you tried other homebrew apps? What are the results with them? This is the first tie that I get such a report. I don't discard the possibility that something is wrong, but would like to know more about this. Where does it freeze?

Que tal, muchas gracias por el apoyo e interés!

Sí, la tienes que grabar a CD o usar un GDEMU si lo tienes. Para greabar a CD te recomiendo imgburn con el plug in de discjuggler.

Imgburn lo descargas acá

Y hasta abajo d ela página está el Padus .CDI File Mounter v1.0.0.12, que también tienes que descargar e instalar después de que instales imgburn. Para instalarlo copias la dll al folder de instalación (por ejemplo C:\Program Files (x86)\ImgBurn)

Ya con eso instalado, grabas el la imagen .cdi seleccionandolo desde el software (Write image file to disc) y lo grabas a disco

I honrar don't know, but I wouldn't expect it to have proper aspect ratio so I would ignore that part.

Regarding color and levels, any would do since those should be converted to analog in the same way for all digital values without regards to the original system levels

I've been waiting on some unrelated parts to be done, but I will release it without those and all other updates I've made next week. thanks for bringing me to my senses.

Thank you for letting me know, it is really appreciated

That's what out of my scope, sorry. There's no fixed Hardware to work with

I am sorry, the tool as it is makes no sense without game console hardware and 240p video.

What do you plan to achieve?

It still needs to be updated.

The 240p Test Suite on Dreamcast does a single load on boot to minimize any laser usage, and does no further reading.

There are units out there that heavily used backups, and the units themselves are 20+ years old now. 

Unfortunately we don't have any reliable data, just a few posts that are years old claming that. 

I am sorry to hear about your trouble.

I am guessing you are running the cart version to diagnose a non booting sega cd. What's the model? You can check out the schematics at console 5 to get an idea.

It was developed and tested using three microphones, but your model might differ. Could you check the device information under the hardware tools -> Maple Device List? The select the microphone and press A. A screenshot of the resulting data will tell me if this is a different model that has different characteristics.

Best Regards, HCFR is for display calibration using a colorimeter: https://artemiourbina.itch.io/240p-test-suite/devlog/405605/dreamcast-release-20...

Hello. yes it should be patched in the pubic binary. The wii suite still will be updated with HCFR, but meanwhile here is the current build with all the changes: https://we.tl/t-sR0CecfHRQ

In general, yes. But different consoles produce slightly different signals. It all depends on what your goal is, since the suite serves a dual purpose: document the platform for comparison against FPGAs and emulation and CRT calibration, amongst others.
Using several will show you how they differ. Some consoels are slightly to teh left, some to teh top, etc.. colors also vary. All try to match the best that particular hardware, and my understanding, allows.

I see. Well i have no current version like that, it would have it's own set of limitations and options, since it would be bound by the DVD format. But some of the other calibration DVDs out there do offer geometry and resolution patterns, like AVIA and DVE.

Yes, they are only 480i of course. DVD can't do 240p. I recommend you try them out, they might do what you want.

MiSTer FPGA is another great portable option for testing via RGBS or component if that is what is to be tested.

I used to take a Dreamcast for those =)

Those already exist =)

It will be added, I hope to release it soon. But it is in production, it will have that and Monoscope

All of them.

Hello, I'm sorry but I honestly don't know outside of the developer advise.  I didn't make that version, and have not tested it or validated it. 

Best regards

It depends on the model, settings, capacitors and magnetic strips and field. Also on teh extremes you are willing to go to.
