The last few days/weeks I've been redoing the PSX and repainted it. Last night I soldered on the IR receiver for the PS2 remote to the motherboard, but then it worked for a while.
Afterwards the remote control only worked intermittently, and then stops working entirely.
Anyone has any idea what could be the problem?
I followed the guide from this page.

At the risk of sounding like a spammer - the remote receiver is working. It turns out the connection is loose somewhere so need to wiggle it. I've stuck it into its original housing with foam tape so they won't move anywhere anymore.
Loving it.

Hello
I have some questions and comments.
I want to do with Arduino this project with PSx. The model I have is SCPH-7002 and I have the "Action Replay Pro" and "Game Shark".

1. Is there a free project to make the player with Arduino and display the audio messages on the blue LCD?
2. Is there anything similar about this project for PS2?
A cordial greeting.

Long struggles and tribulations i managed to pimp my ps1. I did low pass filter / new outputs rca and added buttons via part of a controller internally
Everything works perfectly! However! I would like to also add a remote. Push buttons are linked on 2nd controller port. And if i plug in receiver for rc it will overrule controller port 2 / so then buttons dont work.
Or i can add the receiver to 2nd port (same one as the buttons are on) then they both work.. But gets mixed signals.. like it loops... with 2 devices on one port (controller + receiver) it will get double signals it seems. so pressing forward once will skip 4-5 tracks.... backwards same... which ofc makes the whole thing kinda useless
So my question is : does anyone know how to fix this ? has anyone modded the ps to both buttons and receiver. I would really like to but i dont know how its dont (yet)
thanks in advance

Hello
I realize it's probably been discussed before in this thread, but it's a rather long read so it would be great if anyone could answer these:
- Would it be possible to make a digital input for the SCPH-100X to make it work as a DAC?
- Is it possible somehow to make the SCPH-100X's audio output louder?
- Can it be made to play CDr's or are there any particular blank CD's that will work with the stock unit?
- Was the AK4309AVM DAC ever used in other CD-players?
Thanks!

"Would it be possible to make a digital input for the SCPH-100X to make it work as a DAC?"
I would like to know this as well, that would end my search for my ultimate dac once and for all

This is something I've been thinking of myself. The other thing is adding a bluetooth interface for streaming. I haven't done any serious investigation yet though.
I really don't enjoy hacking SMD stuff. I'm more set up for hollow state. But I don't mind discrete SS things.
Still, the benefit might motivate me to dive into to this.
some answers for gekko23
so here' things I understand in response to gekko23:
I can also state that these things are very musical and can be tweaked via the various recipes out there. I personally know of one fellow who retired his Wadia player after getting a SCHP-1001. And much better after a few simple mods.
so here' things I understand in response to gekko23:
I can't imagine why not. The schematics for the chip are out on the Interweb.Would it be possible to make a digital input for the SCPH-100X to make it work as a DAC?
I suppose one could take the analog audio output from the chip itself and create a completely new analog section or create a slightly greater than unity gain buffer/amp for the output prior to it leaving the SCHP-1001 chassis via RCA outputsIs it possible somehow to make the SCPH-100X's audio output louder?
Complete unknown to me. I've never tried a cd-r on any of my SCHP-1001 player (I have 6 or 7)Can it be made to play CDr's or are there any particular blank CD's that will work with the stock unit?
The AK4309AVM is a multimedia DAC. I've never heard of any cdps that this DAC was used in.Was the AK4309AVM DAC ever used in other CD-players?

I see. I've searched around but haven't found anyone that have done this.I can't imagine why not. The schematics for the chip are out on the Interweb.
You mean amlifying between the DAC and the playstations audio output? Would that be possible space wise without building a bigger chassis?I suppose one could take the analog audio output from the chip itself and create a completely new analog section or create a slightly greater than unity gain buffer/amp for the output prior to it leaving the SCHP-1001 chassis via RCA outputs
I see. Thanks for answering that.The AK4309AVM is a multimedia DAC. I've never heard of any cdps that this DAC was used in.
Yeah I have a BLINK modded PS which sounds great but the output is still low and it wont read CDr's unfortunately.I can also state that these things are very musical and can be tweaked via the various recipes out there.

Many thanks for the reply
Really? That's strange. Got to try some different brands. Cheers!All cd-r's I have tried worked... But I might just be lucky🙂

Ebay or local ebayish places. They are everywhere.Where do you guys even Find 1st Gen Playstations ?
Let alone working ones.
Stupid me, trying to adjust the laser bias and now it won't start. Power LED turns on and there's a soft this when pressing the power button but no startup sound. Must've accidentally touched the multimeter leads somewhere I shouldn't.
Anyone has experience with this?

where to find SCHP1001?
I bought 10 of them several years ago. PM me. I may be convinced to sell you one.

I found them to be plentiful on Goodwill online auctions. I got a 1001 and 5501 each for under $10.

There's a whole bunch of fuses and tiny inductors on the power rails on the main board, you'll want to check each one.
the contacts on the little potmeter are very loosy and make sometimes bad contact ( the middle contact from the pot is not resilient )

Tiido was correct, one of the fuses was out. I must've connected the probe wrong during. Now it has a jumper instead so I really hope nothing else will go wrong and fry something else lol.
After adjusting the bias it reads all CDs now, there was a skip on one CD but I forgot which. I didn't try to replicate it. Others however didn't skip, even long ones with a dozen plus songs.
