I lack the equipment here to do meaningful lag tests, but the progressive modes always felt fast, and deinterlacing mode felt similar, if not the same.
Now we know it's really 2 frames, or 33ms. I think 33ms is at the boundary where some people start noticing delays.
16ms though, that's well within what anyone should be able to compensate for. So this is definitely a Mega Man / Dance Dance Revolution ready device
Just for convenience, I think.NoAffinity wrote:So, then is there really any benefit to be had by including the GBS in the chain for VGA sources?
I thought "okay well maybe just convenience, to have a VGA input connected and either an RGB or component input, connected, but as we've found when having both RGB and component connected simultaneously, there is a negative effect on the image quality.
The GBS can act as a variable adapter that allows sources to be 240p or 480i, but also jump up to EDTV or HD resolutions without all the usual headache.
It's okay to have one Component source and either one RGBS or one VGA source, by the way. These 2 channels are separated and don't affect each other.
What's not okay is the mixing of VGA and RGBs.
I recommend a SCART switcher on the RGBs line, so when there's a VGA source, the SCART switcher can be set to an empty channel.
The main point of the device is still good quality upscaling of 240p, of course
By the way, Dreamcast *may* work better now.
I noticed that the device has weird issues with higher than 60Hz refresh sources.
I don't understand what the problem is yet, but Dreamcast is most likely 60Hz anyway.
