Quoted from agodfrey:

Secondly, and this is a little over my head you need a data dump from Pinmame (or I think there is talk of being able to get the feed directly from the rgbDMD board down the road once a host client can be setup)
To do this you need to replace your old boring .dll file with a special .dll file in your PinMame folder:
http://go-dmd.de/VPinMAME.zip

The current version on go-dmd.de allows you to play back recordings using the custom vpinmame.dll file for PinMAME. You need to make a folder named tmp in the root of your Windows drive or it won't work. Then zip up the text file in a 7z archive using 7-Zip and load the 7z file into the goDMD animation editor.

Actually that palette has been boosted to 16 custom-defined colors. There's also an "upload frame" button which may allow inserting of full RGB bitmap images, but I haven't tried the new software.

I guess we could look to the new colorized DMD on MMr. SO there is that, but those were all totally re-done......

MMR uses 256x64 images with 16-bit color which translates to 65,536 colors or 64 shades of 1,024 colors.

The upload frame button does nothing so it's under construction.

Cameras do a a terrible job at representing things like this. I'm sure the image is flicker free in person.
