Namco JVS to JAMMA

[300wins]

I was wondering if anyone can tell me if the Namco JVS to JAMMA adapter (like the one seen here: http://wiki.arcadeotaku.com/w/Namco_JVS ... MA_Adaptor")
can switch resolution from 15khz to 31khz and vice versa. Or is it just a straight conversion of the controls and sound only? For example, if I have a 31khz only monitor on my Net City, and I get the Namco JVS to JAMMA... can I still play JAMMA games on it?

It doesn't up or down scale, no.

No, you still need an upscaler/linedoubler to play jamma games on a 31 kHz monitor.

Edit: and Pang beat me to it by a few seconds

Great, thanks for the quick reply guys.

good to know, I'm looking for one as well for a future NNC purchase..

You probably know this already but for NNC you don't need to upscale the video from JAMMA. The monitor in it accepts 15khz on the VGA input.

There's one of FrancoB's JVS>JAMMA looms for sale here:

I did know that somewhere in the back of my brain.. it's an autoswitching Tri-Sync Chassis, right?

[ikaruga007]

Yes, you can just plug in the VGA cable directly from the JVS-JAMMA converter into the monitor. It syncs automatically.
