    I had a worse problem with the HDMI kit on the A1200 tower I made. But with the mother board on it's side it kept falling off. I used something like 'double sided heat press silicone tape'. I had to google that, as I've forgotten what it's called but it's for attaching heatsinks to IC's. It's been on there for a couple of years now, it works perfectly.

      Thanks for the tip. I did not even thing to glue it onto the IC. When I am deep into a problem I sometimes only see the one road ahead I am riding on. Especially if I want to finish a video ;-)

    That really came out great. A bit of fiddling with parts, but the end result is beautiful!

      Thanks! Yeah, I thought I could do the wiring a bit more elegant.

    Nice work! It looks like a PS4 development kit.

    Could the socket on the HDMI board that attaches to the Denise chip be desoldered from the board and glued directly to the Denise socket? Then resolder the socket back to the HDMI board? I am not sure of the layout of the HDMI board so not sure if this would work. Great project though

      Thanks! That would be superrisky and I am not sure if I could do it. It works solid now, so I am good.
