Help for 60$ bounty: N64 RGB De-Blur Mod

ifightdragonsifightdragons
in Help Wanted!
I'll just start this off with saying I'm not comfortable with soldering myself.



I've got an N64 that's been modded with RGB amp. It works great, and looks fantastic on my Sony PVM.

However, I have now found out about the latest board from Tim Worthington that lets you disable the Blur/Anti-Aliasing.



To make it short:

I'm looking for a competent modder who can do this mod for me. I'll send the console and board, pay for shipping both ways, as well as 60$ for the modding job itself.





Please reply in this thread.

    My brother (CZroe) and I have been doing dozens of UltraHDMI mods. They interface with the N64 RCP (graphics chip) the same way. CZroe usually handles the fine soldering work. I'm fairly confident he can handle this too.



    I think we'll need a proper RGB setup to test it. I'll either need to get a PVM, mod a CRT, or get/build OSSC. I'll probably go the OSSC route.

    Will the De-Blur option still be available for me through an UltraHDMI mod, even though I don't plan on using the HDMI output? I run it through RGB EuroSCART.

    UltraHDMI will only deblur the HDMI output. It should be possible for a future all-in-one mod board that captures the digital framebuffer, deblurs the image, and has both digital output (HDMI) and analog output (RGB, etc). It would cost more to make compared to UltraHDMI because it would require a DAC encoder of some kind.

    Thanks for clearing that up. Then my only true option would be to get it RGB modded (again) with the latest Tim Worthington board, preferrably with the switch to turn Blur on/off.



    I don't plan on using HDTV's for my older consoles, not even with a Framemeister. Maybe it would be another story if I wanted to stream or capture gameplay.
