When you say "filtered", are you talking about the PS2 equivalent of HLSL-type effects like smoothing?Fudoh wrote:I never played the compilation. If really depends on whether the 480i output is filtered or not. I guess it is and if it is, then running 480p and converting to 240p externally will likely give you better results.With a disc like that, am I better off outputting in 480p and using my ultracade UVC to downscale to 240p, or leaving it in 480i and using the Extron interface?
The output looks exactly the same as I remember from my Extron scan converter (one of the models without a non-interlaced mode). At least it does before it moves. The motion was far smoother on the Extron. Whatever the PS2 does, it ruins games like Street Fighter 2.
As far as I can tell, the 480i res is on the software. The PS2 is definately capable of 240p as a few games run in that res natively (like Art of Fighting anthology).
I need to experiment. The main purpose of buying a PS2 was for light gun games. If I could make Time Crisis 3 run in 480p (or even 240p) like the arcade and still have the light gun work, that would be a win.
The Guncon 2 is 480p compatible so as long as I plug in the gun after any conversion, there is a chance it might work...
