The lag will come into effect after the display device receives the signal. The display will introduce lag either from the upscaling required or the picture processing (it's both of those things, right?)
There are no guarantees. Make sure you buy new displays from a seller that accepts returns.geiger9 wrote: 1. Will it matter if the OSSC feeds into a monitor designed for gaming versus a TV? The three systems I listed above have odd resolutions and I'm wondering if a "gaming monitor" will have an easier time accepting the weird resolution. I'm also told that the refresh rate will cause a problem. For example, the NES runs at 60.10 whereas spec is 59.94. Again, will a monitor designed for gaming be more forgiving and accept it?
Also, research your display. People will try to railroad you into buying an LG OLED right now, but you might be happier with something different. Remember that lots of the posts are from people that feel a need to "validate" their possessions.
For instance, the LG's video processing for video/movies kinda sucks. Is your new display for games only? Are you really only going to play old games?
If you are going to get a seperate display just for old games, do you even want a digital display? Wouldn't a CRT be a better fit? You might not want an OSSC right now.
If you buy an OLED for all your viewing and gaming, you might wait and see what Sony does this year. Sony's video processing is miles ahead of LG for watching video, so we just need a good game mode and Freesync/VRR for games. OLED is still fairly new, so you might want to wait and see what develops.
There is an RGB mod with dejitter. For best results, skip the component transcoder and feed RGB directly to the OSSC.geiger9 wrote: 2. Has anyone hooked up an AV Famicom with Tim Worthington's RGB mod plus a YPbPr transcoder? is it affected by jitter? If I am reading his website right, it indicates it will but perhaps I'm reading that wrong.
You shouldn't have any HDCP issues at all with 8 bit and 16 bit machines.geiger9 wrote: 3. Do both monitors and TVs use HDCP? My thinking was that if the OSSC feeds a signal over HDMI, the TV has one more thing to process - the content protection. If both types of displays use it, will converting HDMI to DVI fix this and then there is one less thing to process and therefore contribute to lag?
