No OSD

[cebelcher]

Hi - thanks for the great project.

I have a working MiSTery Nano using the TN20k - so I know this should work but...

I'm having trouble with the A2600Nano setup

I'm using a MiSTery shield with the MIDI ports unpopulated
Using Tang Nano 20k
Using BL616 MOS dock
Tried 8 and 16Gb TF card formatted as FAT32 with a2600crt.bin (copy of Combat) and atari2600.xml copied to root directory
Used a wireless and wired keyboard through USB-A to USB-C adapter - they work with MiSTery Nano
Both the TN20k and MOS dock flashed ok with the files in the latest release v1.6 including the atari2600.xml on the SD card

When I boot up, I can see the built in game but cannot get to the OSD with the function keys - the game plays with a 9 pin joystick.

Seems strange when the similar equipment works with MiSTery and I can see the OSD there.
Since I defined a default cartridge (Combat) with a2600crt.bin - shouldn't I be seeing that game?

Thanks for any help!

@cebelcher , may i propose the following for debugging:

• delete the a2600crt.bin
• ensure that you have atari2600.xml copied to sdcard
• I didn't found time to test latest FPGA-Compansion files that Till compiled over the last week but will test over the next days.
  Maybe have a start with the µC firmware + atari2600.xml that i released in my repo for the time being.

let me know...

I am typincally using a Rii i8 http://www.riitek.com/product/220.html but from time to time also a wireless Logitech Keyboard Combo without any problems. There seem to be fw problems with 8bitdo keyboards.

Hi @cebelcher ,
i just checked that latest official firmware https://github.com/harbaum/FPGA-Companion
is working on the A2600. It's fine as far as i tested. Rii i8 (USB Joystick) mode and Rii Keyboard OSD function is there.

Yes! Those steps seemed to work well. I now have an OSD menu. I will continue to test and play with it. Will try to get the TN9K working now.

Thank you!

Due to lack of TN9k FPGA BRAM resources it will be not possible to run all Games but many.

@cebelcher , just for info...
TN9k and TN9k LCD designs had been buggy and i fixed it now.
