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.

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.

Problem is the using an HDMI out, can't really upscale that with simple upscalers made to upscale analog video.
