@capeman I completely understand, dont worry about it for now, im out on holiday for the next three weeks, then my kids are back, so its game over, if you have a chance then I will do it at some point, but as of now it doesnt look like i will touch it again for the next month.

Awesome work

Konami Arcade Flyers with real Models are awesome by their way in my opinion (Devastators, Jackal, Haunted Castle,...)

You could just use a wireless video sender, if you are not using HDMI anyway, these can be had for a tenner off eBay..

Might save you some headaches trying to solve something that looks like it's not possible, and even if it was I expect it would be a significant drain on the CPU of the Pi..

This is a great guide. A pi-based bartop cabinet build is in my not-too-distant future, and this post will be key (no pun intended!) to getting Amiga emulation properly set up and interfaced with a keyboard encoder. Thanks for taking the time to write up and share this detailed guide!

@domodan Although not as big as your 60" screen plan, my cabinet is a functioning 4-player design that plays all of the classic arcade games plus some consoles that interested me from when I was a kid (Atari 2600, NES, SNES). Check the link in my signature for details about my project.

As you are probably concluding, you can get away with playing most of the older consoles using arcade controls, provided you have enough buttons. For me, that was six action buttons for players 1 and 2, and four buttons for players 3 and 4, not counting coin and start which double as select and start for consoles.

I am looking forward to seeing more details about your project, as we seem closely aligned in terms of what you want to play--the only difference being maybe that I wanted some portability and the ability to play vertical games from the short sides of my cabinet so the image can fill the display.

@9600baud Yes I didn't realize it was part of the coin installation

Thanks!
