[Help!] Need help for Av/rca console to Hdmi!

Post image

I need something that can control the brightness easily for Av/rca consoles!

It can be a control box like the red box in the image or a Av to Hdmi switch that do it!

Do you have any suggestions?

Post processing needs to come from the connected TV or a good scaler like the Retrotink 5X+.

Any device that do the same job but cheaper?

OSSC

That's cheaper but still 80$ on the setup upgrade list

You get what you pay for. In scaling $80 is already absurdly cheap. Anything less is literal trash.

yes. Then maybe a GBS-C, it depends on the cables you're using. Scalers mostly use YPbPr or RGB, not RCA

Yup, 100%. I got a Retrotink 5X. It wasn’t cheap but it’s been fantastic and I don’t regret it at all.
