Retro gaming on an HDTV

If you have money to spend the best solution is an XRGB-3. I can't say enough good things about it.

I still say the X-RGB 2 is better as it doesnt cause any image lag like the X-RGB 3 does.

If you put the X-RGB 3 in B1 mode it acts the same way the X-RGB 2 does, plus you have the option of using the B0 mode that does the more intensive post-processing which can make things look a bit cleaner, and it still only loses you a couple of frames. I personally keep everything in B1 mode, except my Dreamcast, because for some reason the Dreamcast out the VGA port on B1 gets shifted about 150 pixels (original res) to the right. Something weird on the signal it seems, and it might just be the shitty VGA box I have (it's no the Racket one). Really, though, going with either one has the huge advantage of going out on VGA, which on many TVs will bypass all their own post-processing since it puts the TV in PC mode.

Is there anywhere to get an XRGB2/3 from in the UK? Apart from Ebay.

[MrPopo]

I would imagine the place I got mine would be able to, especially considering they price everything in Euros (yes, I know you're in GBP, but I'd be shocked if they shipped to the mainland and not UK).

Oh yeah I remember the original thread now. Yikes it's a bit expensive at roughly £260 though. They do ship to the UK and it's free for some reason. I would have expected something like that to weigh a bit.

[MrPopo]

Yeah, it is expensive, but it's worth it if you want to play old stuff on modern TVs. And it's still cheaper than most alternatives for upscaling/deinterlacing.

Composite for the Saturn and an RF Coaxial Box for the Genesis.

RF adapters are the worst....
Unfortunately, unless you're up for modding the Genesis, composite is your best best for the Genny.
Got some here if you're interested:

does that work with a European Mega Drive?

Can't you put RGB Scart on EU Mega Drives? It should be way better than composite!
