will we be able to turn the scanlines off if we want?

Of course, all that stuff will be parameterizable, you can adjust the scanline depth, serration etc. Or disable them completely of course

nice, thought i'd ask just in case, sounds great

Preview of the fancy new scanlines. Doing the lazy 50% scanlines just seemed too easy.

This is more than hot!

Thank you a thousand times !!!

W.O.W. That looks incredible! I was considering doing an RGB mod + an XRGB Mini to produce scanlines, but it looks like the HDMI board will fit that need without the XRGB middle man.

Rather than badgering you for a release date, I'll instead ask: if I was really itching for a better quality output on my N64 than S-video, and I spent $400 between an XRGB and an RGB mod today, would I be kicking myself within the next 6 months because your board had hit the street?

Yes, it WILL be out in 6 months Probably much sooner.

There are several other graphical toys that I haven't ever seen emulated by any upscaler before. They'll be demoed in some material I will release this weekend.

Really nice work. All the images posted are beautiful. This last image looks a lot like a CRT ¿have you included some kind of CRT filter?

Great news! Time to start saving up!

What an awesome project!
I have been following this since it was announced basically, but I didnt think it would feature filters.. Scanlines ftw.
What is your price range target? I really want to know if the cost will be somewhat prohibitive for us brazilians, as the exchange rates are through the roof now.
Cheers!

Looking forward to seeing some videos from MGC!

First video released. Scanlines look great only in native 1080p. 60fps, use Chrome or any browser that supports it.

Looks really nice. For some reason I could only get 1080p on google chrome and not on firefox. (Edit: failed to read your post correctly about the browser. )

Have you thought about adding an option to only display scanlines when the N64 is outputing progressive? As you know a lot of games switch between interlaced and progressive and in interlaced mode you do not really have scanlines.

Edit: had a better look at the DK64 footage, looks like you are already enabling/disabling scanlines based on video input.
