Content Provider lucky1 Posted October 26, 2015 Author Content Provider Share Posted October 26, 2015 So far I only save setup data on the SD Card (which display, active palette). Currently it is not needed in PinMame Mode but who knows what will come. I added it because it is cheap and working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Content Provider gtxjoe Posted October 28, 2015 Content Provider Share Posted October 28, 2015 Sign me up for 1 pcb withe the solder work done. Thanks for offering this. To complete this for pinmame use, it looks like we would need the 2 led modules, ST board, and 16 pin idc (and maybe the SD card reader) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider UncleSash Posted October 28, 2015 Content Provider Share Posted October 28, 2015 I orderd 5 pcs SPI Micro SD Card reader. I can sell them for $1.50. Only with the PCB, no single shipping! But i have NO microSD Cards aviable. here is the link where i ordered, so everybody knows what kind of sd card reader is needed (6 PIN SPI microSD) (don´t be suprised that my offer cost more, i ordered 5pcs + 1.98 ePacket with Tracking) http://www.ebay.com/itm/190940601928?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Sign me up for 1 pcb withe the solder work done.

Content Provider CarnyPriest Posted October 28, 2015 Content Provider Share Posted October 28, 2015 I just placed my order for panels, now at US $55 shipped. So, price is still going up. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Factory-direct-sales-P2-5-indoor-1-32-scan-SMD-full-color-160mm-80mm-64-32/32367147914.html?spm=2114.031010208.3.2.wngE5N&ws_ab_test=searchweb201556_7_71_72_73_74_75,searchweb201527_4,searchweb201560_9 This one still appears to be two 64x32 modules put together in one frame. In the gtxjoe link above, the picture in the listing looks like they may now be selling a single 64x64 module which would not be quite as useful for our application. Kind of hard to tell, the listing still says that the product is 64x32 px. People, if the standard is moving to 64x64 modules you may want to jump on the ones that are 64x32 while they are still available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Content Provider gtxjoe Posted October 28, 2015 Content Provider Share Posted October 28, 2015 So Lucky1, is there a way to send still frames or movies to this setup? If not, if it is something that would be relatively straight forward to add, I could give it a try but I would need some sort of starting point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Content Provider steve45 Posted October 29, 2015 Content Provider Share Posted October 29, 2015 First firmware version that is capable to capture DMD output from a real pinball machine (Dr.Who in this case) and created a colored image in real time on the rgb led panel: see but still work to do .... br Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rappelbox Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 If I understood available information so far, it is made FOR pinmame. Using it for a real pinball is the 2nd step. Sent from my Buschbongo using Patschehändes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider steve45 Posted October 29, 2015 Content Provider Share Posted October 29, 2015 Its made for both, feeding frames via usb from pin mame, but also feeding frames from a real pinball machine via the common dmd interface used by nearly all DMD displays like vishay, led from stern, xpin and the like. br Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider steve45 Posted October 29, 2015 Content Provider Share Posted October 29, 2015 Nice Steve. The custom animations could be used for anything, maybe something like this when you are not playing pinball or even non pinball projects similar to this I believe there many solutions out there for this kind of application, even already ready to buy controllers on alibaba. So this a not major goal for this project. Its more focused on pinballs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knorr Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 This could definitly be done, but I do not understand what this is good for?I dont like the zen stuff, but i believe some people would like to use it for pinballfx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
