I’ve been waiting for something like this for a long time

This is a fantastic piece of kit which I bought in the hope to replace and old Sony DVD HDD which I was using to upscale an input fro SCART to HDMI out at 1080p then then onto a 4K TV. Also I wanted to let go of my my old Commodore and Amstrad CRT monitors however I a not sure I can bring myself to let for of these. The other reason for this was portability.The first thing to mention was the quality of the product and packaging which sees some great effort made to give a quality feel. The build is solid and I do not feel as through anything will break or come loose. A manual is included and it’s easy enough to use more or less out of the box. There are a lot of functions to adjust however and these understanding behind many of these will require research unless this already your thing but I have been successful with just the basics.If you are buying for a specific computer or console, it would be worth looking for some vids online to check there are no device restrictions, for example the Commodore 64 doesn’t actually output a signal in a similar way to other devices and at this early stage I do not know if I hardware mod on the 64 or an additional component might be required. Additionally, I’ve ordered another cable for my SNES which I believe with both of these machines is related to sync? That’s a new subject for me to learn.OVERALL, this is the best product I could have possibly bought anywhere near this price. There are no lag issues, bizarre artefacts on screen for what i have tested and for the time being I am using this in a HP 27FWA Monitor and images are crisp. The audio out function is handy to plug into an amp as the sound is poop on a monitor of this size although I think a Bluetooth audio transmission would be fab provided it didn’t introduce interference. There are some great vids worth watching that explain in more detail different screen issues not uncommon when upscaling and especially on cheaper devices. Look for a vid by ‘My Life In Gaming”.What I can tell you so far:Sega MegaDrive 2 / MegaCD 2: good image and no lag or screen issues with fast scrolling (Sonic CD)SNES: works well with the sync on luma cable however bit as pin sharp as other consoles which having read more about it’s a bit of an Achilles heal for the OSSC however it’s still very good and not a disappointment. It’s just not pin sharp. No biggie.GameCube: a little fuzzy but still good, the likely issue was my cheap leadAmiga: images above, actually really impressed with the colour and sharpness. Have noticed on Shadow of the Beast there are odd flickers but need to read up about this. Having seen YouTube reviews I have confidence this will be remedied in settingsSpectrum +3: Robocop was very clear and sharpCPC464: I just received my TV kit. Fantastic. Works perfect. Now time for some Ninja Scooter Simulator

Decent case and functions

I was always put off getting an OSSC because they looked like a school science project, but this Kaico one comes in a decent case and seems very well made. I've been using it for N64 stuff (rgb enabled ntsc). Picture is great. Menus are totally confusing as a noob, but the internet is helpful and within 20 minutes I'd set it up to my liking and it now just sits there and works. I haven't tried it with any other consoles yet. Very pleased and good value - I tried loads of cheaper scart to hdmi cables, but they were all garbage - wish I'd bought this first.

Not cheap, but it actually works

Having discovered three Amiga A1200 computers tucked in the back of my loft I deciI wanted to use it with an HDMI monitor. Having tried (and returned) three different brands of SCART to HDMI converters I was on the verge of giving up; one was completely faulty and didn't emit anything on the HDMI output, and the other two wouldn't display anything (even though other reviewers said it had worked for them). Then I discovered this mentioned and how it was specifically designed for old retro computers using RBG SCART. It was a lot more expensive and I nearly didn't get it, but I'm really glad I did. It took me a while to figure out how to use it as it idn't come with any instructions (other than how to reprogram the remote with my existing AV remotes; at firsat I thought it was faulty as it just displayed three grey boxes, but after some random pressing of random buttons on the remote, the screen kicked in. For an ageing computer, the image is sharp and crisp, even at higher resolutions and the sound quality was excellent. For anyone wanting to connect an old computer or console to a modern display I would say, just ignore the price and buy it, it's well worth the money.

Easily the best purchase for retro games at a great price

As a huge fanatic of retro games (mainly megadrive, PS1 and PS2 games), I can easily say that this is easily the best purchase for playing retro games on the big screen without any lag. So long as you have really good quality cables (RGB scart for megadrive and a good quality component cables for ps2 are highly recommended.Just know that you may need to buy the stereo to 3.5mm adaptor to pump the audio from the component input), you will definitely get the best picture quality from your retro consoles.The megadrive looks amazing in when scaled at 5x. The picture looks crisp and razer sharp. PS2 games look great as well and I like how it deinterlaces the PS2 games natively. The OSSC has so many options to play around with the settings.But I must say this: all of what I said will depend on your display. My Philips LED TV runs my games with no problem. Also good quality cables for your consoles is an absolute must!If you want the best way to enjoy retro games on your modern display and don't want to blow a hole in your wallet, the OSSC is an absolute must have!
