Re: Question Regarding Picture Quality [PAL & NTSC]

That's only true if you use after-market cables with a narrower plug. The originals will be a difficult fit.

Re: Question Regarding Picture Quality [PAL & NTSC]

Or in case of Europe, Prism HD. I wanted Carby for the longest time, but to get one in Europe, you have to prepare to pay extra (VAT, clearance, etc.). Recently I found out about Prism HD and it's much easier to get one here. And since all of HDMI solutions are based on the same GC Video, there's n...

Re: Question Regarding Picture Quality [PAL & NTSC]

Re: Question Regarding Picture Quality [PAL & NTSC]

There is a need as deflickering is often erroneously active with the game's native support. Swiss will force by default anyway unless you choose to disable all video patches.

There is a saying... "if you can't explain it simply you don't understand it well enough" Well, if you absolutely must know... The basis for this is injecting or replacing code in SDK functions, as to substitute interlaced video modes with progressive video modes when possible (99% of cas...

Re: Question Regarding Picture Quality [PAL & NTSC]

That is some fantastic work right there. I will go read about the bootrom :) Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. So basically XenoGC is more or less useless nowadays? No reason to use one anymore? It's not that amazing. It works the same as the IPL replacements that preceded the XenoGC d...

Re: Question Regarding Picture Quality [PAL & NTSC]

The disc drive is not responsible for region locking, only BS2 is. You can also boot original disc games and burned discs (without a XenoGC) through Swiss as well.

You just plug it in and it works. That's all there is to it.

Swiss will force 480p/576p by default on your PAL or NTSC games.

Don't use the 60Hz patch. It does nothing more than forcing 480p does.

A controller must be connected to BlueRetro for it to accept the command. Currently it must also be on controller socket 1.

1) Yes, and it's not just with Game Boy Interface. https://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.p ... 5#p1497325
2) No. I recommend you either get a PAL GameCube, or use a HDMI to VGA converter and then a sync combiner.
