[Console Repair/Mod Center / Raised pad underside of AV out DIN]

Hey all,
So i recently got my duo R in and I thought the rgb scart cable might have been bad because you really had to fiddle with it to even show yellow color at all, everything was predominately orange.

I took apart the console and I could see that the mod job was done with too thick of wire for the three component panel mount jacks on the back of the console. I clipped those as I'm not even wanting to use them, but I realized that the pad had come up on the green wire where it was tapped on the underside of the mobo.

For now, its basically attached to the pin by solder but thats about it.
Is there anything I can do?

*edit I should add the stock AV composite cable works fine, so its possible the scart cable is still an issue as well.

[Console Repair/Mod Center / DUO-R Slow power on]

Hi All,
I recently received my first Duo-R after having only a TG-16 for all these years.
The unit has been RGB modded, so I'm going from SCART to a component converter.

What seems to be happening is when I power on the unit, the power switch is a bit tough to slide, It doesn't appear to click on or off like the TG-16.

Once the unit has power, the screen does more of a "fade" to the main screen. Since I've never had a DUO-R I'm not sure if this is normal or not. I have seen some videos on youtube and it appears it should just instantly go to the main screen.

I could try with composite cables and see if that changes things when I get home. I should also mention its a stock PSU, but I haven't checked what it's outputting yet.

Once the system is on though, everything works great.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

[NEC Console Resource / New Member saying hello]

Hey all,

Just wanted to say thanks for having me and I look forward to talking some games.
I've been gaming for about 30+ years so I've seen much over that timespan. I had a TG-16 when it launched here in the US after seeing a friends system with Keith Courage and the rest was history.

I still have that TG, but I should have a DUO-R coming in soon, and I'm really looking forward to all the games I still never got around to researching or playing.

Most of the stuff I play these days would be for quick bursts of fun due to time restrictions but, ya gotta make that time for games.

Anyways, just wanted to say hello, and thanks again for the activation!
