Hardware-modding
Since the internal circuit board has exposed solder points for floppy-drive and keyboard ports, hardware modifications of the C64DTV are quite simple.
Known hardware mods
- keyboard connector
- external joystick (Port 1 and 2)
- floppy connector
- power unit connector
- fixing the palette problems of the PAL version (to some degree this is possible in software by adjusting palette entries)
- S-Video connector
- user port
- Original C64 casing and PS2 keyboard
Additional hardware
- Data transfer cable (Parallel port (or USB/serial port via DTV2ser) to Joystick or user port)
- SD card interface 1541-III or MMC2IEC
The board could be used as a System-on-a-chip (SoC) embedded computer for control applications.
