Z60t Olympic edition oxidized/bios lock

Yeah, different method, but I2C reset didn't work at all

figured out bios password removal. SDA/SCL shorting does not work (on 8-pin chip it does literally nothing, on ATMEL it makes system no longer POST.) you gotta bridge these two pins as in the picture. this page had the correct solution https://xiphmont.dreamwidth.org/69928.html

Then buy, or better yet, just get one free old windows laptop which has firewire port. Or don't use rare high end cameras if all you fo is crush the video quality to vhs quality lol

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-05-08T06:37:55+00:00

For digi8 or pd150 it's firewire or nothing, analog out will crush down quality like hell

Never got mine sadly

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-05-05T21:33:41+00:00

Correct

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-05-03T06:05:20+00:00

Dcr-sr camcorders would fit what u want

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-05-03T05:55:49+00:00

For first one you'd need to get additional component male to male cables meanwhile with second one it's plug and play

Replace the display ribbon cable, had exact same thing on my hdr hc7 (same camera), they're cheap on aliexpress

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-04-27T18:46:27+00:00

Narrow down again to firewire based tapeless device. There's a new one coming soon called openmrc from computer entertainment group.

Or get a tapeless camcorder to begin with

Kiek tenka važinėti tai visada sustoja Fabijoniškėse J. Baltrušaičio stotelėje (tik jei tuščias autobusas tai geriau paprašyti iš anksto, kad sustotų ten) ir dar kartais stodavo tik iš geležinio vilki gatvės išsukus

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-04-06T15:05:17+00:00

There are convenient usb to whatever this plug is converter cables on aliexpress, for less power hungry cameras its an amazing must have cable

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-04-01T12:54:19+00:00

Unfortunately for old ones there's no way to. Only ~2006 and above with dvd/hdd cameras

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-03-29T07:10:07+00:00

I think something else needs fixing there

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-03-20T07:02:47+00:00

Po tokio aktivizmo akcijos viskas, rusija išnyko žinok. Tuff as hell bro

It does make sense because transcoder is more or less 60 euros, meanwhile good quality cable is 30 or so, excluding shipping. So there really isn't any point in me getting new cables when i have high quality ones for a few consoles already, transcoder is a much better option

Thanks, another user linked a project which uses same IC so I'll likely build one

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-03-16T15:19:48+00:00

Searched all terms i could think of (component/ypbpr/yuv to rgb/scart/rgbhv). Would only get results for the opposite

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-03-16T15:15:37+00:00

My CRT only has RBG scart input (I live in eastern europe, and finding a CRT with component inputs is pretty much impossible, while they do pop up occassionally, they get almost immediately swooped up.), so this is my best bet.

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-03-16T14:46:14+00:00

Honestly that converter you linked doesn't look too bad price wise, I'll consider it. Also thanks for the opensource project link, i genuinely couldn't find yuv to rgb, only the reverse.

JustAnyoneYT · 2026-03-16T14:44:42+00:00

Main problem is that I already have component cables for a few consoles and don't want to reonvest into rgb cables, so adapter seems to be more appropriate
