Every other frame the OSSC is outputting looks great.  The others have garbage on sprites and seemingly no background tiles.

Thanks for the help so far marqs.

No shorts apparent on the resistor side between any of the 4 pads.

Checked continuity again for fun, and the chip pins aren’t bridged and things are beeping fine to the inner R35 pad…  Still curious if there’s a better place up the board or…Read more

Just flashed 0.90 to test and I get a very flickery/jittery image seemingly regardless of output modes and settings, though some are better than others.  This is feeding into a Tink 4K’s HDMI input.

Haven’t used the system in quite awhile, but I removed R35 and installed the bodge wire to the far leg on the video chip as described in the firmware v1.xx thread.  I verified with a multimeter that the pins on the chip…Read more
