What's with the widescreen?

Your setup looks a bit hit and miss TA.

So I'm getting the impression the Framemeister is amazing for 2D images and very hit and miss for 3D.

I'd say it does an amazing job for 240p games. I haven't used it much with 480p consoles, but it didn't like my NTSC 480P Xbox original much, so I just use that machine through component on the TV and it looks fine.

I've seen screenshots of Gradius V through the Framemeister and they look nice, so it must be a case of tweaking the settings for each console. As I bought the device for 240p games, I haven't tested the Dreamcast, PS2, GameCube, but I will when I have a lot of free time.

I tried taking some photos of my SNES in action, but my camera doesn't like taking photos of LCD screens. There were some strange effects introduced to the images that made them worthless. I wish I could capture how great the image looks.

One simple button press on the FM remote - come on TA, you can do it!

Impressive! What resolution is the emulator running at?

What's with the widescreen?

I like Widescreen and no borders at all.

Your setup looks a bit hit and miss TA.

Its not with the Set up . I'm taking photo's on the bog standard mobile and that's always hit and miss.

I mean here's Contra Hard Corps, Last Bronx and Zwei running on my Philips 37 CRT TV and it looks crap thanks to the Mobile camera

This image was taken with my phone camera and looks great.

720p to 1080p upscale by the FM with scanlines.

It puts of a good image for sure.

That's insane buying an expensive bit of kit to produce a good picture to then deliberately distort it into widescreen. Each to their own of course but it seems to go against the point of owning such a Thing?

Flashback looks ok but not as good as CRT. F-Zero average and Axelay looks bad. Bottom 3 looks decent enough despite aspect ratio.
