Love my new ring light including camera arm holding my phone to capture my console I'm playing on during my streams. Also gives me the opportunity to present and go through the boxes and manuals of the games I play. 🤳
Before that I had to edit JPG's for every new game and integrate them in my overlay. That's no longer necessary yet. 😉
I have another one of these arms for my workshops streams. Will post a picture of that another day. 📸
Genesis active resolution is either 320x224 or 256x224 depending on the game.
More important: Which pixel aspect ratio had the developers in mind? The generic 1:1, the Genesis specific 32:35 (320px games) or rather 8:7 (256px games)? In addition it's also possible that they considered the 4:3 display picture aspect ratio of CRTs. 🤯
Street Fighter 2 for Genesis has perfect circles when scaled 1:1, but I scaled to 8:7 because I wanted it a little bit wider.
First attempts with the #OSSC work out fine so far. The generic profiles are ok but to get a quality, that is comparable to my RGB datapath capture card, fine tuning is necessary. 📏
Luckily retro scaling legend FirebrandX provides his heavily optimized profiles for the OSSC. The result can be seen in the video. 🤤
First assessment: Now I can and will stream original retro hardware on #Linux.
For those who want to mirror and control their android smartphone with keyboard and mouse on #Linux, #Windows and #MacOS I suggest the awesome #FOSS scrcpy.
📱 ➡️ 🖥️
It runs locally, there is no tracking and you don't need an account. 👌
You can use it to show your phones screen on stream or as a mobile camera. Linux users even can directly access the phones cameras and inbound them as webcams in #OBS. 🤳
