Since my post above I’ve bought a region free mod for my hdmi modded n64 and now I have the definitive machine

What I reported above is using my PAL console.

What if we already have the RGB mod installed? In my case a custom board with SuperCIC and Borti RGB mods. Is it worth to apply for example only the ghosting fix? (providing I send the snes to you for example).

Ok thank you, I’ve also tested that Snes with a BVM and I can see the ghosting.

So by the post you linked in shmups forums I guess the only way to fix any of my SNES (pal one chip or mini) for the OSSC or the BVM is a nearly impossible mod… Is anybody making that 1-resistor mod?

I will keep using the Framemeister since the ghosting is not noticeable with it.

And I thought that it could be easy to find a good SNES…

I’m not sure if you will be able to see the “shadow Mario” at right in the first image since it’s hard to notice in the picture I took. But while playing it is very distracting 🙂

ghosting is supposedly quite common on the 1-chip RGB modded consoles

This one is not RGB modded since it’s a PAL one chip (not Mini, I can’t tell which board version right now).

I’m waiting to receive my SNES mini with the NTSC cable from the mail so then I will be able to check with that console and cable too. Next week I will also check the old RGB cable without luma sync.

The problem with the pictures I’ve taken is that the effect is hard to notice, but I will post them later.

I used the same cable to test with the Framemeister. Previously I was using the old SNES PAL RGB cable that retrogamingcables provided that had not luma sync, and I had image noise also only with OSSC. I guess that the Framemeister is somewhat filtering all those image issues.

I have also a SNES RGB NTSC with csync cable from retrogamingcables that I may test in some days.

Sony Bravia KDL-42W705B

SNES PAL (SNSP-CPU-02)
SNES PAL RGB cable from Retrogamingcables (maybe sync on Luma but I’m not sure. It was bought some years ago and it was not specified).
It works OK with default configuration.
Image is a bit dark and it shows some noise (diagonal bars).
Image is lighter with Framemeister but it still shows noise.

SNES Mini. Modded with SUperCIC and RGB
RGB cable that came with the console (I don’t know how it is wired).
It works with default configuration (50 or 60 Hz) but sync is temporarily lost in some points of the tested game (DKC). When losing sync, OSSC LED goes red for a moment, the image is lost and after a moment, LED goes green and image is back.
To avoid losing sync, I have to set Analog sync LPF to 2.5 MHz.
Image is bright and it shows some noise (less than in PAL console). In 60 Hz mode noise is a bit less noticeable.
Noise is gone with Framemeister (SCART to mini-DIN with sync cleaner is used).

Linetriple mode does not work in any of the SNES models. TV shows a “non compatible mode” warning.

Noise is not related to OSSC since it is also shown if I connect the consoles to the RGB input of the TV.
