Looks great! You mentioned earlier in the thread that you decided against audio capture, but will there still be power through USB like the previous design?
Yes.

The good news - I can confirm that boards are in production.
Also good - there wasn't any substantial change in price.
Not so good - Production just started. Like, literally today. It usually takes about a month, so don't count on an April release date.

I haven't written up instructions yet, but I can show you what it looks like.
Looking good! Soldering the ribbon cable to the PCB may be a little bit more difficult for a novice (like me, lol), but I'm still confident enough that I'd be able to get it done. Very excited for the prospect of USB-C as well!

do you know if this new board will still be supported by cutecapture just like the old ones?

Hey Loopy, will you be selling pre-modded DS’s as well, or just the install kit? If not, will you sell the installation service?

Is there a limit per customer? Once they're back in stock I'd really like to get 3, but I completely understand if there's some sort of scalping protection in place. I just want to make sure I can get an order in before they're gone without worrying about it being cancelled due to ordering too many.

How many boards do you plan on selling in this batch? Do they sell out quickly? Just trying to see if I can get a timeframe, I've wanted one of your boards for years and I don't want to miss this batch now that I have the money.

Hello!
Are you planning on selling pre-installed DS’s this time around, and if so how many? This will let me know if I have to buy my own DS ahead of time or not. And just in case I miss the queue, could I pay for an installment, then send in a DS once I find one online?

Also, we are approaching a full month since an update. While a date of going live isn’t needed, can you give us a better estimate?

Kits and installs - yes. Premodded, probably not. If I do, they sell out immediately anyway, I can never keep up with those. You're better off finding your own DS otherwise you'll be waiting a very long time.

I probably should put some kind of limit, but 3 is no problem.

I have enough coming in that selling out quickly shouldn't be a problem. If orders are stopped it's because I need time to catch up, not from running out of boards.

A DS doesn't need to be sent in right away, I'll hold your order as long as you want.

I expect sometime this month, that's all I know. It'll take a few days to prep things when they arrive, so you'll have some warning, I won't just open up orders without notice.

Repairs

Post by Kankerchev » Thu May 05, 2022 11:17 pm

Do you do repairs alongside the capture card installation? My DS has an issue with the touch screen where tapping the screen has the input register way too far to the left. If so how much extra would that cost?
