i don't get how they don't tear this to shreds. it's ugly post processing that smears the image and adds sharpening halos around edges. it's basically your tv's ugly DNR settings but in a cable, it's terrible.
I remember this cable. Doesn't seem like it's a scam and I mean, they do seem to have put in a chip fast enough to not cause terrible latency, but it's just too limited due to being post processing and ultimately not worth it.
for modern consoles, it's useless. with older consoles with aliasing all over it's a different story. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/239769/dbafdb96-7066-4fe6-b969-358c4c557aba/9U9ljPMmLmVz8GyZ6bBeMGgNFPQc1k5sJiXBqfbhfsM[1].jpg
yeah i wanted to get one of these a while ago but i watched a few different reviews, it seems like your mileage varies widely depending on who made your tv and which specific model you had as well. didn't want to chance it
Post-processing AA tends to make flickering aliasing artifacts all the more jarring, as the image otherwise looks clean in stasis.
Yea I remember this from LTT. In my opinion it looks pretty bad, so much detail lost
It will always be better to use real AA techniques rather than filters in post-processing, however this is a decent solution for people who want to hook up pre-7th gen consoles to HD TVs, but don't want to tinker around with emulators
