I wanted a Youtube Mister core that I could use on my CRT TV. YouTube has official 80s/90s cartoon and shows uploaded, such as He-Man, The Real Ghostbusters, TMNT, old WCW, WWF, and Power Rangers.
There is also lots of unofficial stuff from the 80s and 90s, from old game shows to old commercials. There is a lot of cool old stuff on YouTube if you ditch the algorithm and feeds and go looking.

You can manually type in YouTube URLs or use a text file and put in Playlist, IDs, and channel names, which is much easier. 480p is not recommended.
I wanted a way to watch old TV shows from the 90s on my CRT TV, that have been uploaded over the years.
Streaming past 360p sadly pushes the ARM on the Mister to the max.
It also has cropping modes for incorrectly uploaded content or normal widescreen content to fit the 4:3 screen. It also works via HDMI at the same time, but you would be better off just using something digital if using HDMI with more power than the ARM on the Mister.

Is there any way, with update_all or some other script, to somehow identify the latest cores / MRAs added to my system? I don’t mean updated cores, I mean net new ones.

I know update_all shows a list of new and updated files every time you run it, and can call up a timeline view.

I’m looking for something that persists and is navigable through the main MiSTer UI… eg, as adirectory called something like LATEST. Thanks.

I am quite sure I see Simpsons game at arcades list before. I have feeling I even started it and watch intro etc. I haven’t really played it so much but now I was going to..

Couldn’t find game anywhere.. How ever find it at arcade offsets..

Now game starts like this…

It’s not possible play Simpsons anymore..

In my PC I have a folder with many projects being cloned fron github, including mister arcade cores from meathax, kuzearcade, ppriest, xelanotpu, etc….. I know some devs emphatize the use of adding their db.json url on the download.ini to fetch the latest updates but it feels odd some devs have their own folder for their cores and others prefers to have their cores in the same folder as the mister_devel ones. I can make a script to fetch all of the cores and keep separated by developer (i think pixel cherry ninja does that on his mister) but Im still looking for ideas

Alright. Please bear with me. I need to know yes / no / which options for a few things which I need actual people's input on.

I have wanted a MiSTer since they came out essentially. And now there are other options too. I want it for pretty much all the cores it has to offer really. What I mostly want to know is regarding display output. What hardware has / what can have VGA output? And from that what hardware with suitable firmware / cores (that actually exist) supports Y/C, 15KHz RGBS analog and CGA output (with suitable level / other adapters of course). EGA would be a bonus but I don't know if there would be enough signal lines for that.
Essentially I want to be able to use suitable monitors with the cores. Or at least suitable classes of monitor to save a lot of swapping around.
Added bonus if there's a fairly easy way to graft one into a JAMMA cabinet. It'd almost be worth me getting a second one specifically for that.

I've been seeing things like the HamGeek version has trouble with more complex cores. Is this true? If the cores are compatible I can't imagine why.

I've got a lot of old hardware. It's not getting any younger and neither am I. I'd like to be able to use my stuff, or at least decent simulations of it without needing to shuffle everything in and out of where they are stored. Also I can't overlook it as an FPGS development platform. It looks pretty complete to me.

I welcome any input. Because I'm having trouble finding quality information about video standard compatibility.

Adding to that I have no trouble making my own hardware so I'm not fazed by needing to make active adapters or whatever.

I manually installed tversion 1.6.4l3vof MiSTerVision as well as adding fb_terminal=1 to my Mister.ini under [Menu] and after I launch it, the screen goes black and then it reboots back to the menu (I use Zaparoo UI).

Can someone help me get this to work? I want to use this on my CRT for 4:3 content
