When are you going to do 7800 composite/av mods?

I can't seem to find a good mod for the 7800 that offers good results. I have the Longhorn board in my 7800, but I had to a few extra mods to keep interference out of the 7800's chroma signal and boost the external audio volume so it wasn't so quiet. I also tried the simple composite mod but for some reason it caused Ballblazer to crash.

Here's a C64 I did for a customer on Famicom World! The JiffyDOS installation you see on the screen was performed by a previous modder.

Bump!

Bump.

Another bump. I also wanted to add that I can now perform Odyssey 2 AV mods and cooling fixes for the Astrocade. I'd add them to the list but the damn post editor won't let me...

Would you be able to fix my 2600 light six-er? Its got something wrong where the power cable inserts.

[ApolloBoy]

Sounds like the solder joints on the power jack need reflowing, it's a very common problem with six-switch systems and it's definitely something I can fix.

How much would that run?

[ApolloBoy]

Just $5, not including return shipping.

Do you still do the Odyssey 2 AV mod? When I googled around to see what others have done in modding the AV of their O2, many mention that the picture ended up being darker than they liked, especially on newer TVs. Have you encountered this? Just wondering if you have had success and if you are still doing the mod for people. Thanks.

I haven't actually performed the mod myself, but I still offer it regardless as it's a very simple mod. The method I use is supposed to work pretty well and is a little different than most of the mods I've seen.

Here's a Neo Geo AES I finished recently for a customer on Famicom World. This one has S-video, stereo audio, power LED and a Unibios install:
