    Default LCD video mods

    Is there a way to modify an LCD pachinko to add on a switchable video input? Basically, a switch box that would let you have multple inputs into the LCD, keeping the original input from the pachinko, and also letting you connect TV, DVD, etc? Not sure if it is possible, or if anyone has ever tried this. I just thought I'd ask before I start carefully ripping it apart.

    Do they make a LCD that Wide? hahahahaha. Just playin'.

    However, I may take a look and see how these LCD's are setup. I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult. These LCD's don't have as good of refresh rates as the computer monitors and tv's.. you get some blur going on at times... but it would still be cool.

    I have heard that they do. So, I'm sure it is compatible, I just want to figure out exactly how to do it, while keeping it still inside the machine.

    This is not the about the original thread but fits in with the heading. I converted the Gladiator to cyclic. On that new Star Wars there is a button that starts the video without having to play the game. My Armageddon is a video model any one know how they do this so I can get the video to start by pressing a button.
    On the star Wars does it go through the hole video stuff as if you hit the bonus round or just show some selected video shots?

    When you press the button, it works like a ball going into the center pocket.

    You can bank 4 spins like a regular palour ready one.

    So it's all the same, but no balls shot.

    So do you think if I found the sensor that the ball goes through and I connected a button to it, it would do the same thing. Anyone know how the sensor works?

    I messed something up on the gladiator. I found the wire for the payout pocket to start the reels. With a switch it would work great Then I wanted to find the wires for the pay out and the flippers. To make it cyclic I unhooked the wires going to the ball dispenser/counter. There are two but only had to disconnect one of them. Only problem is that the machine remembers how many payouts there was that it could not pay out. I figured they would limit the amount it remembered. They apparently don,t. To check the payout for the seven balls I had to re hook up the ball counter. This made it start putting out the payouts it missed. I when through a few thousand balls then it stopped when there was a ball jam or backup. I cleared it. after a while it did it again so I fixed it. Shortly after this it would not put out balls anymore. I can put a ball in a pay packet and it will not pay out balls now. The ball just drops to the bottom try. I have tried switching the two motors thinking I burned the other one up but nether will work.
    There are two lights on the front. One on the top right hand side that would light if the hopper was empty of balls and will stay on all the time if playing in cyclic with not any balls in the hopper. Now that light stays on even when the hopper if full. Then there is a light in the top left side that now has come on and is also staying on. any ideas as to what I may have did?
