Commodore 128 Neo Part 3 - Component Mod

Here's a quick and dirty vid on installing the component mod into a Neo 128 NTSC machine. Be forwarned, I kinda go on a rant at the end.

Check out @CaptainCommodore, he wrestled with one of these recently too.

Great video, , Very clearly spoken ;) ..And it looks a very clean image .. Shame about the way you have to update the firmware. Keep up the great work :)

Nice install chap, I too had some colour issues when I tried the rgb2hdmi via component Seems my video cable cable was garbage so I have another on order and I will be re-fitting mine into the c128D that I have, Looking at the releases on the github I suspect the 2mhz has been giving them grief for some time however, new firmware is in beta so finger crossed this solves the 2mhz issues

Unfortunately I managed to get the RF modulators position shifted by about 1.5mm compared to the original C128 board, making some of the nicer RF mod replacements a bit tricky to fit.
It's been fixed on the next revision as well.

? 38911 basic bytes free. Where addresses does this reside in? Can you use this to create and store sprite information?

What is that device and where do I get one?
