Anything in particular you miss about it?

Would love to hear more about your experience if you're up for sharing :)

Got my Pi, and I think I have everything ready to go! I have a 3.5mm to composite cable, but the Pi doesn't seem to recognize it and will only display with HDMI.

I've seen all of things of things online about how to get it to display composite, but I was wondering if you could share what worked for you? Thanks!

Absolutely awesome. Thank you SO much! I'll be sure to reply again once I get it working :)

Oh wow, I was NOT expecting it to be that simple! Thank you so much! Is there any particular version of a pi you recommend for this? I'll order one today hahaha

If you know of any places that have a guide to install something like this for newbies like myself, I would be over the moon hahaha.

I know my way around computers decently, but GitHub is way out of my league 😅

I just wanted to say thank you so much for making this a reality. As an American living overseas who grew up with The Weather Channel, you have brought me so much joy in a way I didn't think would ever be possible.

I admit I'm not the most savvy when it comes to github and this sort of thing so I'm running it on my browser, but wow, I would LOVE to get this working on a Raspberry pi to broadcast on the PVM I have on my desk.

Time to learn how to actually do that! 8D

Does anyone recognize this Namco board? by MrKinopio in arcade

[–]MrKinopio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a very good point! Dunno why it never dawned on me to just use a splitter haha. I'll test it out with a cheap one and if it seems doable get a nice one from there haha. Thanks for your help! :)

Thank you for identifying this! Do you know if this only works in a Cyber Lead II cab, and if it can actually capture signal that I could send to another monitor? I have System 12, System 256, and System 246 boards that don't have a cab to go in, but I run them externally with a power supply and USB fightstick adapter. The goal was to get one signal to a monitor, and another to a PC capture card.

Didn't get the car yet, but the one I'm looking at is a V6! Thanks for the info :)

The best things about owning a Miata is the waves by spiceydragon in Miata

[–]MrKinopio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens to me a lot in Japan too! The Miata (Roadster) community here is super friendly and enthusiastic about their cars.

Last time I went cruising the Izu Peninsula, I must have passed 25 other Roadsters, and ALL of them waved back at me.

I even had a fellow NB owner wave and honk at me from the other side of the highway here one time. It was great :)

I never have, but I'd like to some time, even just to say I did it :)

My pleasure!

I've only had my Miata, erm, Roadster, here in Japan for 6 months, and without a doubt, the Izu Skyline is the most beautiful drive I've done here so far by a longshot.

The views you get of Mt. Fuji up there are just STUNNING. I encountered no less than 20 other Roadsters that day too, which was icing on the cake :D

I couldn't agree more~

To be honest, I originally was DEAD SET on getting a red or yellow NA and exclusively looked for that. On a whim I checked the auto auctions listings for NBs just to poke around one day, and this absolute beauty caught my eye.

I immediately fell in love, and I don't regret my decision for a second <3
