Recommend a scan line generator

Post by chempop »

I've done a little research but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask before making a final decision. My hope is to get my low res DC and 360 games running off VGA looking a little nicer on my Blast City trisync monitor.

I'm considering trying the mini-SLG from crafty+mech or SLG3000. The 3000 is basically twice the price, but is it twice the functionality?

Any other options worth considering? Much appreciated :D

I have an mSLG and I'm very pleased, it works well and the price is great. If you want to fine tune the scanlines and price isn't a problem then the SLG3000 is the better choice.

I won an SLG3000, it came with the clear case which was the deciding factor as my apt can get messy :mrgreen:

If you ever need a second unit and want to try out the mini SLG, just let me know! :)

aaaaand the seller cancelled the auction after I won, didn't give a reason either. Mybe he was looking to get the $90 BiN rather than the $59.99 I won it for. Do people usually give negative feedback in this situation?

[edit] I might have to take you up on that offer, see above.

That stinks, I would contact the seller and ask why. If they don't respond then negative feedback sounds reasonable.

PS - I'm running a sale in Jan. for $24 shipped (US only).
