I recently ordered a broken Sega CD and I've been watching all the repair videos I can before it arrived. This has been one of the best ones I've seen, and I admire your dedication to ensuring the system got to a functional state. Thanks for sharing.
Great detective work with the shipping solder blob, it probably would've taken me hours to work that one out. 🤣 Loving the editing and voiceover work in this one, your channel is coming along nicely! Loving the humour too. 👍
Really nicely edited and very helpful. The music is just a bit loud in some bits compared to the first repair video though, maybe turn it down a bit for the future. Still, good job and looking forward to part three!
You should use an oscilloscope to adjust the laser. In another video the guy has one adjusting using the test point (RF test point for RF level) to approx. 1 Volt peak to peak for pressed discs.
@@NaokisRC was just curious. It's possible it was dodgy, I've had some mixed results with lasers out of China. Some work first time, others need a tweek and some you just can't working. In particular had that issue on a cdi, but then again on that console maybe it was for the best it didn't work haha.
@@NaokisRC The PAL version of Super Mario Bros. attempts to do the same, but the developers overdid it and so PAL SMB actually runs and sounds faster than the NTSC version.
