I recently bought one of these and ported the ZX80 / ZX81 pico emulator ( https://github.com/ikjordan/picozx81 ) to it. There is now a list...

Re: ZX80 / ZX81 Emulator for the Raspberry Pi Pico
Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate it :-) Sometimes there are options within the TV set-up that can help with re detection of HDMI devices.It may be related to how the TV does hot plug detection through HDMI pin 19.

However, there are two pads on the back of the board, which when shorted with a blob of solder, will en...
