    One of these days I'll upgrade my XRGB-2plus to the latest model. Right now I still have plenty of 15.75khz RGB monitors (both CRT and LCD, yes they were sold here) to enjoy it with. Also, the FrameMeister works with vintage computers as well, the Apple IIgs, Amiga, Atari ST, and Tandy CoCo 3 all natively output 15.75khz RGB.

    Been watching you guys for a few years but wanted to comment on every video if I can. I wanted a frammestier but got hardcore into gaming in 2018 when retro 2x first came out. I have the 2x pro, scart and the 5x now which is amazing. Great video you guys are amazing and I have learned alot. Never would of thought of using a component to scart adapter on my crt. I have two and use them to play light gun games or games need perfect timing like Mike tyson punch out. I have a retro avs which I love. So think I will get that component to scart adapter to play light games on the crt. Sorry to ramble but love this stuff.

    The PVM in the video is actually junk from my workplace, that they let me have for free years ago, since it was broken (I have a lot of interesting video crap thanks to that). It won't power on at all, but I only just recently discovered that it even has the RGB inputs... I'd love to see it in action, even if I have no intention of actually using a PVM in my normal setup.

    I'm somewhat infuriated that you barely have more subscribers than me. My videos can't touch this quality. Thanks profoundly for the incredibly in-depth tips on how to maximize your video quality on older consoles. Until I can save up almost 400 bucks for the Framemeister, I'll be using the relatively effective ElGato capture card's upscale function, but MAN you guys converted me. I, too, am an S-Video junkie, but this is really something to consider. Even though I'm probably a good decade behind you guys in gaming experience, I'd love to sit down and have a beer with you guys and talk retro. Subscribed!

I discovered that you had your own channel recently and promptly subscribed as well. Great stuff, I'm a big fan! You've got an awesome voice, and your offer is a valuable resource that we might take advantage of in the future. We're still learning about being more comfortable on camera and doing VO, but if you look at our early videos, I think we've been steadily improving over time. Thanks for the kind words on our video - this one has been a real break through for us, and the response has been overwhelming. Saving up for a Framemeister is absolutely worth it. For us it was a gradual realization that we wanted one, slowly ramping up the video quality over time. We wanted to make a video to show people what was possible and save them all the money that we'd spent on the in between.

Thanks for keeping me in mind, though! And it makes sense that you'd follow Jeroen - you guys are both vanguards as far as 3D/AfterEffects expertise is concerned. I hope you guys grow really big, and I'll make sure to tell all of my friends about it! Went on a spree last night and watched a bunch of your videos and I can safely say you'll be one of 2 or 3 KZreadrs I follow where my ears perk up with joy when I see you upload a new video.

We're excited that the most personal side of our channel has shown through and been driven to the forefront. Not that we don't love the How to Beat series, we absolutely do. The stuff we do with 3D doesn't hold a candle to what strafefox does, but he is absolutely one of the biggest inspirations to me when I started doing them. I just love his constant forward motion though the videos - like you're being pulled a long on a ride. Oh and even if its not for our channel we might have some other opportunities for your talents from another angle - but nothing set in stone just yet. Stay tuned!

    Worth it! It costs less than a new console, and is just as worth it to a retro enthusiast! Research videogameperfection.com for more information, and reviews of other equipment. We learned a ton from there, as well as hazard-city.de. While the Framemeister is the only high-end video scaler that we have experience with, there are other options out there... supposedly even better than the Framemeister. However, they can be even more expensive, and the Framemeister seems to have the best performance to cost ratio.

    Great work guys! Such a professional looking video, do you have your own TV studio or something? Btw, you can get 480p from SCART on the PS2, you need an Extron Interface or a Keene Syncblaster to do it. Works well with the Framemeister too!

  • @mylifeingaming

    @mylifeingaming

    10 жыл бұрын

    Originally, we actually had a line in the video touching on 480i vs. 480p a bit more, but I cut it out. I actually don't have very many 480p-capable PS2 games to test with anyway. This might reveal me to be pretty casual as far as videophiles go, but with the way the Framemeister handles interlaced sources, I personally can't see a compelling reason to use 480p over 480i. I've taken screenshots comparing the two, and while they look a tiny bit different from each other, I can't say if one is better, or worse. In motion, they look the same to me. For simplicity's sake, I'm just going to continue playing PS2 with SCART in 480i.

  • @BuckoA51

    10 жыл бұрын

    ***** The Framemeister is particularly good at deinterlacing 480i from the PS2, if you configure it correctly anyway. In fact, I keep mine around mainly just for that. I take it you're using 480p via component which actually on the PS2 is kinda noisy. Normally you'd avoid 480i for input lag alone, but curiously the FM input lags the same with interlace as progressive. Don't you have the Free MC Boot setup on your PS2? With that, you can get 480p out of lots of PS2 games. I've been playing Grim Grimore in 480p RGB and it definitely looks nicer. Thunderforce 6 works great too.

    +treepizzle i connected my 5 retros through my framemeister too, its the best. but i have heard the scart switches give more input lag. so i just have all of them in one spot ready to swap the scart plug at any time.

    gscartsw is the one everyone seems to love. His switch doesn't come cheap-- it costs about $200, although if you're willing to take the $300 plunge on a framemeister it's in the same neighborhood. I'm planning to get both eventually, but first I need to finish modding my NES and N64 for RGB.

    scart is disapearing ;( too bulky for new tv... well there is solution for low latency gameplay on the cheap get a cheap hdmi pc monitor (they have generally way lower latency than a tv) and take a cheap scart to hdmi converter or a composite to hdmi converter. enjoy! (i know it is not as good as a crt but it does the job better than modern tv at low prices)

    Tailslol I’ve only ever seen 1 European TV in my whole life that didn’t have SCART, which was a modern flatscreen. But other modern flatscreens still have it, it’s only just starting to disappear, but if you just want to plug a SCART cable into your TV you should use an old CRT which will probably have SCART inputs, and will look beautiful.

    I use an RGB to HDMI converter box personally. Higher definition quality and I can play the consoles on my newer 46" TV. The converter box is pretty accurate and hardcore, kind of like the Framemeister, but not as expensive thankfully. Although I don't doubt the Framemeister would have better quality output. I only had $70 to spend so I will be keeping my converter box. Awesome video, guys. Very informative and extremely helpful. I may need to track down a Framemeister myself, but only after I save up some dough for it.

    Excellent video. I have to agree this is probably the most well presented video on the subjects of RGB format in older consoles and the Framemeister out there, for people who feel the need to absolutely play or record footage of games on physical copies. You know what's easier than all that, though? Playing on an emulator. It's easy, quick to set up, has all the same settings and options, can natively output ridiculously high quality, has all sorts of magnifications and filters, and best of all, it's free. If you have a retro controller that you can plug into your computer, there is literally no difference between playing a physical copy of a game or playing the emulated version. You can easily set up your computer to output directly to either your monitor or any TV, and you don't have to spend hundreds of dollars tracking down and buying original game cartridges and CDs. Plus, you don't have to worry about bit rot, or some games' (*cough* GBC Pokemon Crystal *cough*) internal batteries dying. All this time, money, research and other effort just trying to figure out how to get a physical machine to output a certain quality that can be achieved (and exceeded) in five minutes with certain emulators?

    For some people, there's a joy that comes with playing on real hardware, and hunting down copies of games in retro game stores is all part of the fun and satisfaction. Certainly, if all you cared about was image quality, emulators are going to be more flexible than upscaling the original hardware, but I feel like it's a balance of factors... I personally enjoy original hardware, and physical copies of games, so I do what I can to improve my image within those constraints, and the target audience for this video are also people who enjoy original hardware.
