Salut,

J'ai suivi ton conseil et j'ai pris 2 modèles LG pour mes Noir Cab.

Par contre j'ai un souci : ils ne détectent pas automatiquement la source d'entrée. Or j'utilise le displayport et le hdmi, as tu le même problème que moi et trouver une solution?

In english:
How change betweeen DisplayPort and HDMI without touch the monitor ? (No access to the button in Cab).
I don’t know about the other models but my 4K monitor automatically switches between the pc (DisplayPort) and Xbox (hdmi) so there is no need to press any buttons or use a remote.

I honestly don't know how they can sell an arcade, with this input lag.
I have seen tutorials to change it for an LG monitor etc ... but I would like to know if I could save this monitor or change it and throw it away. :cry:
What are you plugging into the monitor that's showing so much latency? Low res jamma boards? A PC? Which input?

hopefully not off topic.
i realise i've a variant of the chewlix where the middle section is one solid piece.
have been itching to replace the 720p screen as well. anyone has any experience in doing it?

Looking at the setup:
Looks like the space is quite generous. so most pc monitors should fit.
will probably have to use some ganky solution to prop it against the frame retaining the 2 vertical bars to hold it up.

notice unlike other variants the centre section is one solid piece. you cannot lift the screen out from the front.

With the red Vewlix it's gonna look even better, and also play better since i can be in the middle for the shmups and fighters :D

Edit: What the hell, just checked a local store and they have a 32MP58HQ for 180€, even cheaper than amazon. Jackpot!
Edit2: Bought!

I just found one for $60USD 😁😁😁 Let's go!

I'm gonna try swapping the 32MP58HQ into an original Vewlix C this weekend. I'll let you know how it goes!

The monitor swap was a success! Not enough room for the glass but I was expecting that and not planning to use the glass anyway.

Wasn't too difficult but I did have to remove the slim back plate and reposition the monitor control "knob" slightly to the right so I could access it from the back of the vewlix.

Tip: connect and wire through the power plug and HDMI plug before you screw the gray frame back together and add some thick foam/insulation tape to the top/back of the monitor to keep it snugly in place.

Is anyone able to confirm that the SAMSUNG U32J590 4K Ultra HD 32" works as a replacement, looks like a good time for me to upgrade from 720p to 4k ..

There’s a new 4K LG 32-inch monitor that might work out better as a replacement that LG announced at CES 2022.
