Feature Request: Amiga Video Connector?

[henryobelisk]

Hi,
I've been looking at adding a proper 23-pin Amiga RGB connector to NanoMig to get Genlock working with original video hardware like the Rocgen. The main thing beyond RGB and sync is having XCLK and XCLKEN available as inputs so the genlock device can feed timing back into the core. Would this be feasible with the current codebase? I'm thinking a small carrier board with a DAC for the analog RGB side would handle the hardware part.
Thanks!

That should work. However, you'd have to disable/remove the scan doubler. You'd also have to convert the OSD to work without scan doubler and you'd need to route the audio to some analogue output.

I'd suggest to keep the HDMI for the first tests and run the Amiga video in parallel to HDMI with osd and audio still via HDMI. Once the Amiga video works satisfyingly you might invest the time to get osd onto the Amiga screen and add some analogue audio.
