Picked up a Hyperkin Dreamcast cable that outputs via HDMI. I tried it out and it’s displaying in this tiny box on my TV. The box on the cable has no settings and the TV is a 1080 Sony Bravia.
I’m not sure what options I have aside from stretching the image via the TV settings but if anyone can assist, it would be appreciated. Thanks.
Guessing that hyperkin thing isn't scaling the image to fill the screen. Does it have any instructions for scaling the image up at all? I would assume it should be scaling the image. It makes no sense to be outputting 480i/p through HDMI.
Edit
Reading more about it, it doesn't seem to upscale at all. What a shame. You'll have to use your TV to scale the image with its "zoom" or fill function.
No instructions at all. I just tinkered with my tv and the only “solution” is to have the DC in Full mode. I can live with that but it’s far from ideal. I would’ve liked something that scaled up.
Run it through an upscaler. https://www.retrorgb.com/upscalers.html
Problem is the using an HDMI out, can't really upscale that with simple upscalers made to upscale analog video.
HDMI upscalers exist. https://retrododo.com/mclassic-hdmi-upscaler/
