gc-forever - Gamecube/Wii Forums

so ive been slacking off for the last week since i had to actually go to work which left little spare time with no motivation....
over the next few days i will finish up and test the boards for proton, iggunr, and shadow...
those "should" ship this week...
guys send me your address so i can get it out...


those 3 members will provide feedback on:
quality, install, test results, and overall opinion....also, any possible ideas for improvement...



while awaiting for feedback i will prepare the design for the next batch of boards...
i have 8 available slots for this next batch of a/v boards...
sign up now... also a separate list is available for stand alone internal fiber optic boards...(with fiber optic connector to be modded into your case)
no final design at this time...i will try to provide one soon...
sign up now... edit updated list

i sign up!
i want one - maybe 2!

You can definitely sign me up for at least 1. Probably 2-4 if all goes well.

you know i want one eh?

I don´t understand what u mean with the second List...

Also a YUV Cable but with built in optical Audio?

If so - then i want one of this too!

Put me on the list for a stand alone internal fiber optic board please megalomaniac.

Also just out of curiosity will the a/v boards still have the option of VGA built in or was that option dropped from the board design?

also, i don't get the 2 lists Oo

I was under the impression that the second list is for people that already own an official component cable but would also like to have a standalone digital audio board to go with it.

Sign me for one A/V board, please. Maybe combined shipment with liquitt would be a nice option again?

Add me to the A/V board list.

same here if it is possible

just to clarify the purpose of the two lists...


the first list is for a full internal a/v board setup/mod which will come with the following: PICS will be posted soon of the completed design/setup




the second list is for an internal audio only setup/mod which will come with the following: note: internal audio only, i am not sure if i will design an external audio mod for the official component cable yet..
this second list is targeted for those who want audio only
those who may already have an official component cable
those who want to add digital audio to other systems such as PSX, SNES, Saturn...(docs can be found online, i will not support since i have no means of testing other systems)

if someone was to discover the AVE pinout of Wii, this chip should be capable of digital audio for wii as well...then again a HDMIkey clone on ebay is easier


further info: an external audio mod is an easy circuit to create, but i personally do not like the fact of having to open the official component cable only because the metal shielding does not close back into its original form very easy...
im not sure if anyone would want to go thru that process of having to mess around with that shielding...
it is possible, easy to remove, hard to put back in proper place...

but if anyone really wants a headache, let me know...

Urm i think i want on the first list then...?

liquitt wrote:Urm i think i want on the first list then...?

me too.

YES - also on first list...
But i think i take 2 of them

put me down for one..

still need to add the bottom component connector...
but this is the overall idea of the aux board....







since the main board is to be soldered directly into the GC mobo, the aux board will connect via removable header cable...
once the aux board is hard modded permanently onto the back panel, the removable header cable will allow quick disconnect for taking apart the case in the future..

:O that .. is .. awesome!

hell yeah, VGA!

Very satisfied with the ones you already sent me but sign me up for the complete board also.

I plan to make a sweet GC mod. This is a must have.

As for the test results. The video board works exactly like the original one I have. So not really anything to say about it. As for the digital audio chip that one works too. I get digital audio in my amp and it sounds perfect!!

Made this up for myself working on my latest portable. Thought it may be useful for anyone wanting to try connecting a component chip to a rev C cube.

I'm on the road right now so I'll check this again in a few hours...but where does 54mhz come from??
I didn't see any 54mhz xtal on the mobo

I of course traced all of the connection points myself.

Maybe I wasn't clear trying to type on iPhone.


I understand pin 11 of the MX pinout
I meant the revC mobo. I never found a 54mhz xtal on the revC

If there is no xtal, then is that gpu via actually 54mhz??

Thats what I'm figuring.
