and a cable like this:

In this case I would rather use a HDMI <> mini HDMI fpc cable like this: https://de.aliexpress.com/store/product ... 45705.html

I think the cable you linked is Micro to Mini HDMI - something along those lines would work though.
Mini HDMI to HDMI: https://de.aliexpress.com/store/product ... 0.0.eazCWG

@debrebbe - Can you take a couple of pictures of it on the menu's? Would be great to see how clear the text is compared to the BW. Estimated delivery on mine is a few weeks away :|

Oops, that's micro, here's a mini:

Only problem it's 50cm(about 20 inches), isn't that far too long?

Hello all.

If you place the screen, the horrible black border, on the right, is visible, same as video ?

And he has no screen surround, you think it's better with it ?

Thanks :ugeek:

I've been talking to this guy for about a week. Saw his post on ebay when I was posting one of my GBZs for sale. I was thinking about buying one just to see what he uses. He actually has one with 6 front buttons...looks like it's using helders AIO 2.2 plus a couple of the easy buttons from kitsch bent. So he must lurk here? He quoted me 499 USD for a 6 button version with TWO psp joysticks and a 480p screen. Perfect for ps1 and n64. He's currently designing what I asked for... 6 button with pi3, 480p and two joysticks and is going to send me a render Monday.

I have to admit, if he can do this and have it functional and look good with a pi3, it's embarrassingly better than I can do at this point. :(


EDIT: nm, not helder's. It looked like it through the case from his Ebay post, but I didn't watch the video in OP. It's a different custom board.
