This is really informative, thank you – this was an area I knew pretty much nothing about so I appreciate the information. I’ll give the generic timings a go and see if it improves it slightly.

Out of curiosity, are timings something that I could try to just play around with and eyeball for a custom timing preset, or is it really more of a case of you need to know what you’re doing if you’re attempting custom settings?

Admittedly, I’m fairly new to scalers in general, and timings is definitely one of the areas I know least about.

I realise this is likely a dumb question, but if im playing a PS2 or a GC, is there a reason why the PS2 or GC timing preset WOULDN’T be the best choice for minimising jagged edges?

And, likely owing to my lack of knowledge, I’d have thought a purpose built scaler like the OSSC would be better at upscaling than my TV – is there a reason why a lower output resolution on the OSSC and letting the TV do the upscaling would be better for reducing the harsh edges?

Thanks for your suggestion! I’m definitely keen to learn more and understand it all a bit better.

Just to add further to this, how helpful would it be to add something like an mClassic AFTER the OSSC pro? So that the signal path would be Wii/PS2 -> OSSC Pro (outputting 1080p, or 4k if the mClassic supports it without just passing it through) -> mClassic -> TV. I realise there is the potential for some increased lag options here with the dual processing/scaling that is occuring but if its generally not overly noticeable I wouldn’t mind too much for the games I generally play.

Thanks for your informative response! I was wondering if a large part of it was just it simply being blown up much larger than it was originally designed for – perhaps I’ll consider getting a smaller screen CRT.

In the meantime, are there any suggestions or settings changes that might improve this? Of course, I’m not expecting a perfect recreation of how I used to view it.

If an anti aliasing feature was to be included in OSSC/OSSC Pro, would this help?

Before I suggest it as a feature, is there a technical reason why it wouldn’t be feasible to include in the software?
