Some of you may / may not be aware of ArcadeForge and the bits of kit that they make.
Anywhoo, I picked up their SLG SCART unit, which simply adds scanlines within the SCART feed to your LCD/LED etc TV.
My Samsung LED TV looks ok, but I still miss the element of scanlines and the look that this feature brings.
I own a separate upscaler, but think that most half decent flatscreen TVs these days should give you a comparable image. As such, I don't know why people bother with them, if all you are missing without a external scaler is scanlines.
The company that do the XRGB line, also did a basic SCART scanline generator (DISPL), but these are as rare as rocking horse shit.
As ArcadeForge do one, so I thought I would give it a bash.
I'm on the fence as to whether the scanlines do or do not make the picture better, but I'm glad I have the option to choose now.
Here are a few videos (ok they aren't great), see for yourself.
Garou Neo Geo (NGH with RGB mod);
Ketsui PCB (Sigma Supergun); [OFF]
Ketsui PCB (Sigma Supergun); [ON]
