So other than the HDMI nightmare, everything WAS working this morning. Well, I still need to finish the console mods for the NES TL and SNES Jr. Those are sitting on my workbench waiting to be done. Hopefully tonight. But in the meantime, I have well tuned Retrotink profiles configured now!

Okay, it took an entire day (and technically this is only the retro half of the room), but you know what? That does look better than I feared it would Just need a few more cables, & the 7800. Oh and I should probably do that NES TL composite mod so I can actually use the cables I routed. Yeah...

For my S Video signals, just the PS1 and N64 for now. I have a second S Video AV cable coming for the Gamecube for my DOL-101, but it'll be a few days. These look really nice for such old tech. N64 definitely softer, I might try to RGB mod one in the future.

My composite signals. Waiting to see if anything comes of the HD Retrovision component cable for dreamcast. Until then it's just composite in the stack. Atari 2600 needs some hardware help to clean up the signal, but for now it's workable. NES TL will go with this stack soon.

And finally the component video stack. SNES Jr will be here soon. Genesis, the video is kinda noisy through the 32x and not the best through the model 2 either. Both might need recaps. PS1 is solid, Wii is solid but soft (normal for those). All in all pretty pleased.

As for HDMI...well they're digital signals so they either work or they don't. Thankfully, as of now I've had the PS3 running in game for over an hour and not a single signal drop. The Wii U, Switch, and GC with the Carby are rock solid as always. And on the 4K side, the PS5 and Switch 2 are fine.
