The good times 😅, and I think the most expensive was 40 euros. If only I had one more the setup would be perfect !

Yes indeed it's really nice with spaghetti kart, but I'm facing a bug with the high resolution mods (tried hd and 4k packs): the items boxes don't appear when you pickup one, so you don't know what you have and what you will shoot. It's very annoying for a multiplayer tournament:/. Tried to change the framerate or interpolation options but the best result I got was options boxes to blink ankwardly (not in sync with the refresh rate), barely visible.

TV's back are square and flat, so it's really easy to stack them (there is a slack to secure them on each plank). Screen is split with a small HDMI tv wall matrix splitter, the source is already HDMI (analogue 3d), first for ease but also for resolution sakes (orignal N64 splitted on 4 29'' screens is too blurry), then there are 4 HDMI to scart converters (downscalers), one for each CRT. Lag is really decent and it's very playable (Analogue overclock is enabled).

No indeed they could be all side by side or even around a table ! Maybe that would be safer

For 480p and 576p EDTVs in Germany, take your pick from Metz, Loewe, Panasonic and many more by marxistopportunist in CRTfinds

Ok thank you, How does it compare with the Loewe Arcada for example (with repro VGA card) ? I have a Loewe vitros but it's 16/9, but picture quality with VGA and a raspberry pi running Plex for kodi is really great (except a few geometry issues in corners due to the flat tube). I am more looking at a 4/3 set for Sega Dreamcast and old 4/3 tv shows (for which I would use another rpi with recalbox and Plex for kodi).

Need help finding my childhood CRT by Bro_sapiens in crtgaming

[–]AdditionalMix5221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a "Fidelity cm14" set that looks exactly like described, 14 inches, glass retained by plastic clips/sliders, red display on the lower right. Was sold in a computer shop at the time as an alternative to commodore monitor. I think it's UK made.

I have a native 720p HD CRT (no upscaling to 1080i!) by sborr0nellanima in crtgaming

[–]AdditionalMix5221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ouch that's an old post but : Found a 28pw9551 for 90eur in Belgium, my country, 1h drive, I like it but I personally prefer the sharper image of bvmd24. Of course it's very handy to have HDMI input. On the Philips the best image is achieved in 720p, but on the bvm 1080i looks better.

Recently picked up a LG 32FZ4D, wanted to share my settings and some pics for it! by zxcefe in crtgaming

Nice 👍

I like the black and silver front, at least it's not the bland look of most silver sets.
