Mmmm... if we had some video dumps (in MPEG or Theora) of those games, maybe I could adapt my Raspberry PiLD LaserDisc application to VHD (demo here). We'd just need to reverse-engineer the communication protocol with the VHD player, but that should not be too complex (probably something close from the infra-red signal, like on the LaserDisc).
Has anybody here ever seen or been able to launch a VDH MSX game on a real hardware? Sounds like the top vintage dream to me... launching an MSX game from tape and having the background video on a vinyl disk :RNFF:
I'm sorry, I've seen lasrdisk on some Pioneer msx1 systems.
What's the tech about it? I think VDP TMS991.... has an Input from external video signal.
If so... can be possible use an external video source to design screen? I think to a Raspberry for example.
