Does Mechapwn force NTSC4.43 on PAL systems? SCPH-75002 #54

Closed goldenunique closed 2 years ago

goldenunique commented 2 years ago

I've Mechapwned my SCPH-75002 (aus region) to a DTL-75001. I've done this as changing to DTL-75002 did not allow me to play NTSC games. For playing games this is perfect. No issues. However it appears that the system menu and disk games use the NTSC443 format instead of regular NTSC. This is an problem as many capture cards do not support this signal. I've tried two. One captures B&W while the other has a glitchy picture. Homebrew applications such as Popstarter do use the NTSC signal however. No capture weirdness there.
In short: How make NTSC instead of NTSC 4.43

Ah ha, I've found a solution. Patch the NTSC game image to PAL using Disc Patcher v3.0, then launch the game through PS1VModeNeg.

@goldenunique just to be sure, you were talking about PS1 titles?

@goldenunique Please try this Release Candidate 3 - it should fix your problem.
