Hi

I want to build a mame cabinet with my son so I'm looking for a 19" 4:3 monitor. Collection from NLP would be great.

Cheers

David.
 
Don't bother with an LCD get yourself a 19 inch trinitron tv from the tip or eBay, make sure the scart socket on the back has ... 3 little dots these indicate RGB in, then it's just a quick cable to knock up.

I've done this a few times now and it's pretty easy to do.

My Naomi has a 29 inch trinitron setup, not the lightest of tubes, 40Kg but looks awesome.

You will need an ultimarc arcade graphics card, or a compatible card or in board chipset and use soft 15Khz.

Install groovymame and the calamity drivers and it will look superb.

Cheers

David
 
I'm making a smaller bartop style - with a house full of pins I'll never get a full size cab past the missus :(
 
I just picked one up tonight from someone local - cheers!
 
No worries, once I get my control panel back from the powder coaters I will get some pics up.

I've been using mame since 1999 and only recently got the calamity / groovymame setup installed.

I've now got 20 odd pcbs that will getting sold now as the emulation is almost perfect.
