PlayStation 1 / PSone Colour Correction Modification

[H360]

Hi. Are there any schematics available to tell me how to make my own colour correction modification?

There is I think an advanced version with a dedicated PCB and IC, or just a single crystal oscillator.

use RGB?

Also, what version of PS1 is a requirement to anything like this.

[H360]

We dont use RGB in Australia. We just use composite.

It is 5000 series PS1 with a MM3, so if you know what crystal frequency I should use, I can go buy one and install it.

I am trying to run an NTSC-J game on a PAL system.

if about HW - for psone - you need change generator and oscilator

but realy get tv with all tv standards, i think modern model hasby default?

No you dont, you solder a wire:

Also, anywhere can use RGB. Your answer is more like "I dont have anything RGB" I guess?

Also, this is the last time I google for something so stupidly easy to find for you.

[H360]

Thank you.

I have a TV with SCART, but I need to buy a MULTI-AV to SCART for PS1. Rather just buy a crystal and install that.

And I tried Google. I seriously did this time :lol:


Oh, the crystal needed is a 4.43mhz crystal oscillator if anyone has trouble finding that information...

[Bad_Ad84]

You should buy the scart RGB lead imo - picture is far far better.

Cables are on UK ebay for like £3 too.

I did find one on eBay AUS for $10, but I missed it.

It was the original too all in its original box...

its just make stable tv mode. but not real correction if you got ntsc one you can't make pal by this method. cause you need also change osc and freq-generator.

in 550x models its additionally used external osc (4.43) or 17.734 with some kind if scheme, i dont what exactly. i cant make some pics.

H-360. if you really need . better we talk about in Skype)))

This guy sells them for £2.25. Ignore the price of £49.99 - that just means hes out of stock and will reduce price once they are back in.

Hes a reasonable guy, I am sure he wouldnt charge you much to send one.

PS1 changes 50/60hz in software. The fix is for the colour carrier.

all you need is an RGB Scart Cable for your PSX?

send me your address and i will fuckin post one to you, must have 50 of them here

Haunted why do you always seem to want to make the situation difficult lol

[H360]

I wasn't making it difficult????

Just wanted to know where I install a crystal in my PS1 :lol:


Thank you for the offer, but I can't do that to you. I would pay for postage ^_^

i meant the more difficult solution by installing a wire link or new oscillator etc. rather than just getting a cable

upto you about p&p mate but either way pm your address and will get one sent out to you over the weekend

Do you mean the official Sony RGB SCART cable?

[Lum]

Why bother? PS1 ready RGB cables are unbelievably common. A true marvel. Among the longest and most consistent globally supported gaming products ever devised.

Beating even SNES's long lived base design in consistency. That differed in pinout for PAL models, N64 didn't accept anywhere without mods, and was PAL only on Gamecube.

RCA connectors or similar don't count. Those have general purpose uses in multiple industries.

For a parts list that long, shipping alone (especially if from different vendors) will be more than the RGB cable...

[cybdyn]

jinn - you right, this is what i ment.


PS1 changes 50/60hz in software. The fix is for the colour carrier. - its for the FIXING color.

also it need change osc/generator . just compare board for NTSC and PAL region.

[Calpis]

All these fixes do is override the NTSC/PAL selection input on the encoder. Oscillators, RGB cables etc are irrelevant--you already have the PAL colorburst oscillator in a PAL console, and RGB works entirely around the problem.
