Overview of my history with upscalers EXTRON IN 1502 www.extron.com/product/in1502 EXTRON DVS304 www.extron.com/product/dvs304 GBS8220 "CONTROL MOD" github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control
Composite to RGB is sub-optimal. You would be best getting a Component/RGB AV cables for the console instead of using that consoles Composite out. Otherwise find a mod solution that enables the console to output Component or RGB. Look up the RetroTINK stuff as there may be a solution there as well.
Does the IN1502 essentially have an internal Time Base Corrector? I've been reading it's specs and it's conversion between NTSC and PAL with scaling is very similar to their other products. My use case is specifically for VHS. I have a Retrotink 5x which is great for gaming. But it doesn't have a TBC. So I've been thinking about picking up the IN1502 to fix the time sync from the VHS tapes and then pipe it into a 5x pro for upscaling.
@@gornway since I left this message I've been on a hunt for that answer. Long story short, I still don't have an answer. I've gone as far as calling the company and sitting on hold trying to speak with one of their applied technicians in Australia. I ended up being offered a call back but they didn't get back to me. So I'm going to be trying it again this week to see what they have to say. The TBC functionality in their other products was just mentioned in the product descriptions and so it felt more like a marketing thing. The circuitry seems the very similar in the IN1502 so hopefully I'll find out for certain this week sometime.
Hello, maybe u remember does EXTON 304 (second shown) do deinterlace when we need something like s-video 480i to progressive vga 480p? And does this deinterlacing is good or no I soon get hands on kramer 719 that work as vga->hdmi and cramer vp415 and vp419 where I prossible do s-video to vga and they claimed 3d motion adaptive deinterlacing. So thinking try or not also exton one
GBS Control is your best bet, you should look it up. It can upscale 240p to 480p, which you will need to do with a PC CRT monitor. It has a very decent deinterlacer which you will need as PC CRTs rare handle interlaced modes well. The latency is very good across the board, as comparable to OSSC. It also has component in and VGA out so you won't need additional converters before or after the GBS Control.
