Review: Got it working, check your source system settings - Got this working with the Nintendo Wii! It took some time to figure out but happy with the results. The sound is perfect and the video is decent. I almost returned this as the video was black and white, split and duplicated on my TV. Tried pressing all the button combinations on the RetroScaler2x but couldn't get it working properly. I went into the Wii screen resolution settings and changed the output from 480p to 480i, instant success. There's no lag on the video or audio but haven't tried any intensive games, just Wii Sports. For reference, my video is being output to an LG 4k OLED TV with no issues. The HDMI cord is running through a Pioneer Elite receiver, then to the TV, also no issues. So far, really happy with this product. Some reviewers said to do a Firmware update but I could not find any instructions for doing this. Went to the manufacturer website as well as their GitHub support page but no luck. A commenter said they stopped providing Firmware updates because it was bricking some devices. I'll keep an eye on whether this changes and update my review of I see something. Attached are the before and after pictures of the resolution change. Going to keep testing other consoles to see if there are any limitations for this device.
Review: It works great! - My ps2 looked like doodoo on my 4k TV before. I bought component cables and the retroscaler2x and it looks like I remember now! I love it! A Lil expensive compared to a basic hdmi converter but it's definitely not the same thing! It went from unplayable to 480i or whatever it was when I was a kid lol

## Features

- Supports 240p/480i/288p/576i NTSC/PAL sources to converter to 480p/576p HDMI-compatible output (480p for NTSC, 576p for PAL). And it is a zero lag device, proven using multiple measurements and different devices.
- Compatible with N64/NGC/SNES/SFC/PS1/PS2/Dreamcast/Saturn, and Genesis/MD. NTSC and PAL signals are supported, but they are not converted to each other. That means you can plug in whatever signal your target device is compatible with, but NTSC might not work on PAL HDMI-compatible devices and vice versa.
- By putting the RetroScaler2X into pass-through mode, incoming composite, s-video or component signals are simply transparent and digitized into HDMI-compatible.
- The “Filter Mode” is completely preference-based, but the average retro-gamer prefers the FIL mode off for 2D games (SNES, Genesis, etc) and on for 3D games (ideal for N64/Saturn). Also, the FIL mode help reduce flicker with some 480i-only games.
- To preserve the authentic gaming experience, this converter outputs the console's native aspect ratio (typically 4:3). If the screen looks stretched or distorted on your 16:9 TV, simply use the TV remote to manually adjust the display settings back to 4:3 aspect ratio.
- Note: Must be connected to a stable 5V/1A power source (USB cable included, wall adapter NOT included) to prevent screen flickering or blackouts. Package includes: 1x RetroScaler2X Converter, 1x Micro-USB Power Cable, 1x User Manual.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Update the official firmware and reset defaults and it works great!
*by M***2 on October 26, 2023*

Ordered these while trying to streamline my retro gaming setup. I ordered one for an SNES and one for an N64. When I initially received them I was convinced they were broken. Turning on the console sent a signal maybe 1/10 times and there was around a 30 second delay IF it would even show anything. After going to the manufacturer website and downloading the firmware tool and updating to the 0.8.4 firmware these actually work really well! There is about a 2-4 second startup delay after the console powers on, but they reliably work and I can completely live with this. I previously had been switching consoles using a Retro Scaler 2X which worked great, but was hoping to be able to do less cable juggling and switching by adding some additional scalers into the mix. I think the Retro Scaler 2X is also maybe by Bitfunx. The picture quality with the S-Video + 2X + Smoothing looks basically identical to the Retro Scaler, except now I have slightly less of an octopus setup connected to the TV. The pictures are very clear, without color striping. The edges are crisp but not harsh. It looks as you would hope from a 480p output of a really old console, and is miles better than using component or S-video cables directly. Highly recommend this, but definitely make sure you update the firmware and reset the defaults!!! I don't know why they arrived in such a strange state, but both I received worked very poorly before the firmware update, so I think this is a manufacturing thing.
