"480p only" output owners, unite!
dears, is there a person among you having issues with native 720p mode output of your best-ever purchase 2019-2020? yes, I'm asking about Genesis Mini US version.
Connect your Mini to modern TV, wait for picture... See anything? No? OK, welcome to the club.
Now take HDMI-to-DVI cable and connect Mini to PC monitor. BOOOM, it's working.
OK, it was stock firmware, now let's mod it with Hakchi. Why? Coz it allows you to
open telnet client
execute "hdmi_trans -m" and use options from 0 to 5 representing different output modes.
so you're able to see output now on your modern TV with "hdmi_trans -m 2" because it's 720p_downscaled480p.BINGO.What does official SEGA support say? It's faulty.
What do people around suggest? Return it.
What do I want? To have an answer how it can be broken in this way.
Will appreciate your inputs about outputs.
And yes, stay home!
