Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

I got the shuriken bit file 2.1 from ikorb/gcvideo on github.. This is the correct one. It works but there's no OSD or Sound. Did you connect the additional wire from the via marked on this picture to the Shuriken video board? It should be connected to the smaller pin header besides the FPGA on the...

Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

That would explain why I'm getting an error while trying to program his bit file.

I'll work on what you posted above a little later today and get back to you guys to give you an update.

Thank you,

Re: RE: Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

I am not sure if sound is on by default. What you need to do for sound is enable "enhanced DVI" in the OSD. ;) It is very unlikely that when a programming file is bad you still get something that partially works. Yeah that's what I'm thinking, it can't be the programming. So then, do you ...

Re: RE: Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

Seems like you are getting somewhere. :) Did you connect the controller via to your shuriken video? You need to solder that separately, as it is not on the digital video port. I have no idea what gcdev is. I think the first file you flashed is the right one. I don't know if that was done as I'm tak...

Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

I have no idea for now. Did you check your circuit with a multimeter? Check all voltages and check for shorts. You will need 1.2V and 3.3V. Check if there are no shorts on your JTAG signals. And you should definitely make sure you have the JTAG connected correctly. Take a look at the schematics of ...

Nice to see you back andre; I always loved reading your enthusiasm in your posts. I sincerely hope it was nothing serious, or if it was, nothing that cannot be recovered. Anyway, welcome back ;) Well sadly I got t-boned by a drunk driver around thanksgiving and have been in rehabilitation. Im much ...

Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

Yes, they are all connected except the Init. Even that wiring I'm not sure as there's no clear instructions as to how they should be connected. I assumed that vref is vcc. The harness of wires has an extra wire that I have no room for on the chip pinout. My programming harness has 7 pins and my chip...

Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

Alright, here's my update. So I connected the chip to 3.3v source, the light in the programmer is now green YAY! That victory was pretty short lived as that's as far as I was able to get. When I try to program the .mcs file iMPACT gives an error that I can't get passed. GUI --- Auto connect to cable...

Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

It's still a good place to start.

@andre104623 could probably shed some light on that subject or @happy_bunny.

Thank you for assisting, I'll provide an update in a few hours if I get a chance to work in it tonight.

Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

Awesome, is there Abby way to power the chip without connecting it to the GameCube?

If so, how? If not, do I need
All pins or only the vcc?

Re: Shuriken video v2 build with xc3s200a

Good day everyone, I'm trying to build this mod, but I'm having some issues with the flashing. I couldn't find any clear instructions anywhere so I'm kinda going with the bits and pieces I'm finding here and there. I installed iMPACT, I created the .MCS file through iMPACT wizard using the .bit file...

Possible to use SD Gecko as GCN memory card?

Good day everyone, Can't seem to find an answer to this question anywhere, and all results from Google are too old to be relevant with all the advancements this scene has achieved. So my question is, is it possible to use an SD Gecko as GCN memory card? And if so, can you please point me in the righ...
