But in my opinion, LCD's and arcade games is a no no.Emph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiff Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 how are you going to get all those custom timings with an LCD?!also most LCDs are made for 60hz, or a very limited range.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emphatic Posted August 7, 2006 Author Share Posted August 7, 2006 how are you going to get all those custom timings with an LCD?!also most LCDs are made for 60hz, or a very limited range..I don't know how it does it, perhaps you'll have to wait for a review on say, retroblast.com to find out. But I don't think that ultimarc would right out lie, do you?Emph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiff Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 i'm not accusing anyone of lying, and i hope it can look good 'cos like most people I have dying CRTs and am moving to LCDs.. i just don't see how it can possibly work right, that's all.lets suppose it does work.. as everyone knows, LCDs look sh*t at any non-native res.i dunno, just doesn't make sense to me.

Tom Speirs Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Yeah Smiff, I'm with you on LCD's would be shit for this, and I really wonder how some LCD's and CRT's are going to cope with those refresh rates. I'm not sure the product claims to be for LCD's though, does it?I would say, that Ultimarc does great stuff and is a good company in every way as far as all my experiences go. So if Andy says he's done it I tend to believe he's done a good job.We'll have to wait for the retroblast review to be sure though.PS. Look out for the Arcade-In-A-Box review there coming shortly.
