Only ST core works!

That maybe. Don't you have a regular VGA screen? Most cores work out of the box with these.

My first assumption was that you are downloading the cores the wrong way. If the 5 flashes also happen with the spectrum and other cores i'd strongly suggest to check that the downloaded core files are fine.

It's a common gotcha with Github that one may accidentally download an html page instead of the core binary. You need to click on "view raw" to get the right file.

I think I get what is going on. My TV is able to view ST mode but I think it is having problems with refresh rates from other machine cores! I will have to invest in a multi-sync monitor :)

That is good advice Newsdee however I got the core files by cloning the project to my computer :)

I discovered by accident that the issue is the TV/Monitor. It displays the ST resolutions fine but other screen modes used by other cores are incompatible. I have a multisync monitor arriving later today that is guaranteed compatible with Amiga modes. The model was tested by Amiga users and listed online as a good choice. I hope that means it will also work with other cores too :)

The monitor works fine. Some cores do not. In particular the Amiga cores. Spectrum, QL and BBC work fine but I can not get Archimedes and Amiga to work. A shame as the Amiga is one of the main 2 machines the MiST is suposed to clone!

Do you have the SD card setup with the correct ROM? That’s the easy way to fail here

It seems it did not like the Kickstart 3.1 ROM, my 2.04 ROM works fine. OK. Now I think I have a grip on what it going on. I will try other copies of the 3.1 ROM to see if the one I was using is corrupt or if the core just does not like 3.1 :)
