    3:21 Here in Europe, we used Scart connectors for basically everything we hooked into our TVs since sometime in the 80s. I know it was capable of a better image than composite, but I'm not sure if the European SNES (or other consoles at the time) was actually capable of outputting something better than composite? At that time, I had a Commodore Amiga instead. I do remember when I got the original PlayStation right after launch, it just came with a composite cable with a Scart dongle attached to it as standard. I quickly bought the proper official Sony Scart cable to replace it, which was a huge upgrade in image quality.

    • @blusterkong4556

      It's able to output raw RGBS though the AV out, but not certain if official SCART cables passed the pins

    • @liamh1982
      @liamh1982 20 годин тому +3

      SNES RGB output is really blurry (it looks like the image has streaked horizontally is the best way I can put it) unless you have a later 1-chip revision model or perform a mod. Otherwise, you're probably better off using S-Video honestly - yes, there's a bit of colour bleed and artifacting but not so much of the blur.
      I think the Saturn (at least at first) was the first console to come with an RGB SCART cable as standard in some European markets, if you don't count France where I think it was a legal requirement that any device that connected to a TV had to have RGB-compliant output available.

    • @caranook

    1:21 Phillips is a "universal" screw head (can be turned by Phillips or flathead screwdrivers), while flathead is in the same respect a "universal" screwdriver -- this doesn't seem odd or out of place to me! This way, in case they mess up (or run out) and include the wrong type of screws/driver, they don't have to swap out the other component as well

    • @Games_for_James

      As a mechanic I could not disagree more, using the wrong tools damages the tool and the fastener. Even the wrong sized phillips driver for a phillips screw gets a frown from me.

    In my experience, all consoles that aren't the slim versions up to the PS3 support s-video. It is my preferred way to connect old hardware since it's a small, single cable. I don't like the massive SCART connector and YPbPr is just a mess of connectors everywhere. On a good CRT or through a nice scaler like a RetroTINK 5x or 4K s-video looks really really good. I feel like going from s-video to SCART or YPbPr does look nicer but it isn't worth the effort and expense. Anyways, love your videos! Just wanted to gush about s-video lol

    The monitor having built in image flipping tells me that this kind of firmware is designed for projectors.
    I have a cheap projector with very different software but still some similar quirks, such as a forced 60.00hz refresh rate for all inputs and tearing when you make the zoom smaller.

    Mystery button is probably "INPUT" hence why it goes black and then comes back. Can't detect a second input device.
