Review: Great. - Works a treat. Nice clear picture. No issues whatsoever.
Review: Works brilliantly and is easy to set up - I recently tried a lead that was RGB, as the RF lead that came with my MegaDrive 2 about 30 years ago had long since stopped working. That lead really didn't give a good image, so the console and 30 odd games went back in the loft. I recently got one of those mini projectors and happened upon this cable, so I thought what a great combo that would be if it works! And oh I was not disappointed. The colour is rich and vibrant, the image is crystal clear and defined, the sound is beautifully clear. My only complaint is I've just wasted an entire Saturday afternoon playing MegaDrive games, felt like I was back in my 20s and the classic era of gaming! If you want to breath new life into that old console and rediscover all those old games, this is worth every penny and then some.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works well.
*by L***H on 22 February 2025*

Does exactly what it says it should do. I purchased this to interface a Mega Drive 1. to my Toshiba 65" flatscreen. It works well. The adapter needs an external 5V PSU so i just use a power bank to save messing around with another power socket. It seems to use very little energy so should last a long time between power bank charges. The picture is very good for the price. You can see and measure every pixel with ease. Initially there were quite bad vertical bars ( People call them jail bars ) running down the screen. This is an issue with the early mark one Mega Drive and not a fault of the adapter itself. A simple mod to the Mega Drive board has cleaned them up to the point were they are now unnoticeable unless you go looking. For those interested i simply shorted pin6 on IC 13 ( CXA1145 ) to ground. This mod turns the composite video black and white but it can easily be reversed by removing the short. So Yes, I recommend this product with or without the mod, it's a massive improvement on composite or RF. The converter takes the RGB-S signal from the AV port at the rear of the mega drive and converts it to 1080P HDMI. The sound on the Mark1 is only output as mono from the rear of the Mega Drive but it still sounds sweet through my AV amp. It's not worth the bother to recover stereo sound for me, but if you wanted to you could knock up some leads and do it that way.
