5X Pro vs $15 Upscaler - Composite, S-Video, and Component Comparisons
Continuing our comparisons from last week; this time we'll be comparing the AV2HDMI to RetroTINK's 5X Pro! Coming in at Twenty Times the cost, what will the 5X Pro give us compared to the AV2HDMI?
*Corrections: I'm still not sure what happened to the text in the 5X Pro N64 S-Video video. The standalone capture file is fine, as is the moment where I show footage using the N64 Sampling Mode at 29:01. Apologies.
*Important Call-Out: YouTube's compression does take away a lot of detail that is seen in person that devices like RetroTINK, RAD2X, CARBY, and more output. Bear that in mind with any content containing capture footage from those devices. My commentary and opinions come from the Raw Capture Files and what it looks like on my TV, I can't account for what details are lost to compression until after the video is uploaded.
