In Topic: Trying to hook up Atari 2600 to computer using Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-850

I have a PCI version of a WinTV device, so this may not help, but it works with third-party TV tuner software, which may work better than the bundled software.

In Topic: Just received cart - can't write to SD card

Lately I have been shipping 4GB cards and these are not compatible with some legacy card readers. Unfortunately 2GB is the maximum size for these old card readers, and 2GB cards are getting more difficult to find in quantity as they are being phased out.

Yes, the cable is fine - if the cable were not, it would say "Harmony cart not found."

In Topic: Flashback II into a 2600 shell?

It shouldn't be any harder than a regular FB2 cart port mod. Maybe even a little easier. But I think a better solution is to just video-mod a regular 2600 so you avoid all of those nasty FB2 incompatibilities - unless the 2600s are hopelessly broken.

The joystick/paddle combo will be detected as paddles. If you want to force detection as a joystick, try holding down the fire button on powerup.
