Dreamcast's output

kiun · Feb 15, 2002

I dunno why but my dreamcast's output doesnt show a perfect border... you know wat i mean...one border is straight while the other one seems ovalish....
anybody knows wats the problem?
are your dreamcast like this too?

Ya my dreamcast seems fine when booting up but when it gets into the actual games it puts like black bars on both side of the picture. I don't know if this is because the Dreamcast has crappy video or if it is my system. I'm gonna try an svideo cable and if that doesn't fix it I'm getting another dreamcast.

exactly... i dont think the s-video helps anyway.... any other dreamcasts owners here??

no the sides are still there but man i really recomend these cables, they make the games so crisp!

Hey can anyone do an s-video mod on the dreamcast. I bet that would fix the problem and make it look a lot better.

Its more likely your TVs than the DC.

Your not playing on Widescreens are you, LOL.

My DC video is pristine, and I use either the official SVideo cable, or official VGA box.

My bet on the funny border is the TV.
