Stumbled on your channel recently. Great stuff! I've been an aspiring to do projects like this for many years, and lots of recent spare time has finally given me the chance to. This being said I am just starting out, so videos like yours are amazing. I appreciate your attention to detail, clear and concise presentation and overall vibe of your work. Cheers.
@@LIRetroGaming Do you have a specific flux that you recommend? I saw you mentioned it somewhere at some point, but can't seem to find where! Thanks again
I do have a question about the newer Voultar board which you installed in this video. As far as I understand the RGB bypass features automatic detecting for pass-through or resistor cable, resulting in 75 Ohm output regardless of which cable is used?
There are several versions of the original snes console. The 1chip versions look just as good as the jr, but the older models have inferior RGB compared to the jr
I seem to be having an issue with my Modded SNES JR. Sometimes I think it's my cable but I'm not sure. Sometimes the brightness on the screen changes for no reason. Other times no sound or a reddish tint. It usually goes away if I remove and reinstall the cable, but the brightness thing/ visual glitch just started happening during gameplay. Other times it was on start up.
@@LIRetroGaming I also noticed a type of ghosting when going through doors on Super Metroid. Like during the transition there will be like a white artifact line during the transition. I find it pretty annoying, and it's just on my RGB mini. My Non 1 Chip SNES doesn't have this issue.
Hey bro I have a couple questions I haven't played my n64 and snes In a while I want to play them on a modern tv I'm looking to get good picture also I'm not very picky about it but I'm willing to spend a couple hundred dollars I'm currently looking at a retrotink 2x pro I want a upscaler that will work for both those systems it is a snes jr like this one will a rgb mod be necessary? Will it have even better picture or is not necessary or will I be fine with just the retrotink?
The retrotink 2x pro is a great choice for both systems, they will look much better on a modern tv. Modding the n64 for RGB and getting hd retrovision component cables will make it look even better with the retrotink
I think most people can do it, it just takes some time and practice. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to get a good iron, and you can practice on junk circuit boards until you are comfortable enough to try something on a real system. Hopefully videos like this can help
One of the reasons I love Friday!
I love your channel my dude! Great work!
Thanks, Appreciate the feedback!
Good video slowly improving my solder skills
That’s great to hear, time and practice is critical. And as long as you have a temperature controlled soldering station then you should be all set

Thanks so much and I hope that the videos are helpful if you are trying to learn!

Excellent, informative video. Thanks for taking the time to put it together and share your knowledge with the rest of us 👍
Thanks! I appreciate that and I hope that these videos can help others to do this kind of work
Killin it with the content! I love Fix it Friday!
BEAUTIFUL!! all you need is the power led mod and you got the best snes there is!!
I definitely need to keep this mind, as my SNES Jr is completely stock. I'm surprised there's not a lot to do.
Nice video! Thanks
Glad that you enjoyed the video!
Would like to see the LED mod also.
I think that I have shown the LED mod in other snes jr videos that I have done
the wires are all in contact cause of the welding. Does not affect the signal ¿¿
So after this mod I use the same red white and yellow cables ?

Which give better results
The JR with the RGB mod or the snes normal with the rgb mod

@@LIRetroGamingok, I will buy a JR :)
what are you using to get RGB into that modern tv?
I send all my RGB consoles to a switch box, and from there it goes to the open source scan converter. Finally the OSSC outputs hdmi to the tv

That sounds like it could be a cable issue. But it would definitely be much easier if I could see photos of the mod of course

What do you use to output that high resolution? SCART or compnent?
I actually use both RGB and component in my videos. The quality of the image is identical with those video standards

@@LIRetroGaming right on thanks I will go that route then.
god I wish I knew how to solder
