BKM-129X Compatible Clone Card for Sony PVM & BVM monitors is designed by Martin Hejnfelt.

I have made circuit modifications to support JP-RGB21 instead EU-SCART. Because many retro gamers in Korea prefer RGB21.
Steel bracket is expensive to make and difficult to mount, but the results are very satisfying compared to 3D printed brackets.

@Crown Arcade Shop I'm interested in buying one but I'm little concerned about recent comment on the official product page (https://crownarcade.co.kr/products/...bs-rgbhv-for-sony-monitors-with-steel-bracket):

"The bracket did not come with the two screws required to fix it to the PVM Sony monitor, and due to this it stays loose. For the high price of this product I think this should be included and is not acceptable. It is unfortunate that I have to look elsewhere to purchase these two screws and probably will have to buy 50 screws as this is the minimum order quantity.
Second complaint is that the select button can be pressed but sometimes gets stuck and is working with difficulty and not properly.
I hope that it does not break at one point."

Are these issues going to be fixed for next orders?

I've prepared the suitable bolts and are now shipping them with board.

The selecting switches are fragile, so I've reinforced them with resin.
 
If I understand what a real BKM-129x supports, it also got a passthrough so you can also have simulataneous output, do these RGB/VGA versions not support that?
