This isn't a CRT.

It's a MiSTer on a modern 4K TV, through a Morph 4K running firmware v4.

Beam-to-glass CRT simulation, a rebuilt deinterlacer, Tate Mode and more. Out now in beta, free for every owner 👇

@AtomicGaryBusey Was this done by decoding the raw CVBS using the ISL51002? I definitely want to add this to the Morph 4K if possible. I'm all for more accessibility features.

[Pixel FX @PixelFXco]

Love this. Anyone who has dug through the old video standards knows how much work goes into getting something like this right. Congrats on getting it working!

[AGB @AtomicGaryBusey]

After a heck of a lot of preparation, reading through piles of standards and technical documentation, building and testing firmware... I have an OSSC Pro finally decoding line 21 closed captions from VHS tapes with no decoder box in between!

Screenshots, setups and firmware updates. Come say hi.

@bytesaber_ This post specifically is a screenshot of an SDR image. If you view it at fullscreen with 1:1 zoom on a 4K display it will be close to what you would see from a Morph 4K. HDR is the best way to view it, and that needs a Morph 4K to view.

[Pixel FX @PixelFXco]

Advanced Bezel Reflection tuning is now available in Morph 4K beta 4.0.65: falloff shape, soft start and end, tracking and more.

Plus Auto Phase for analog and input screenshots to SD card. Screenshots captured in real time without pausing and disrupting gameplay.

@RURON1N What do you mean? Not sure I understand.

[Pixel FX @PixelFXco]

@GoblinVirtuoso Kirby 3 is one of my favorite SNES games. I listen to the soundtrack frequently.

Our Morph 4K page was years out of date, so I rewrote it for firmware v4. If the blog post was too long, this is the short version of what the Morph 4K does today: https://t.co/PYgPmTpCJq

@JorgeJacobo55 While connected to WiFi, in your browser run http://morph4k.local/N6gG3C2j and then restart Morph. Once done, go to System > Firmware, set the Update Channel to beta, and run the updater.

[Pixel FX @PixelFXco]

Morph 4K beta 4.0.52: Physical mask mode. Dial in the screen size, mask type and pitch of the CRT you want, and it builds that mask for you. No more browsing mask files. Also new: Reference CRT presets for 13 real sets, built from their service manuals, plus Fantasy CRTs.

[Pixel FX @PixelFXco]

@RealGameHistory That’s why I made the bezel 😂

@failclears The images in this post were from a MiSTer plugged into the Morph 4K via HDMI. The Morph 4K also has the ability to downscale HDMI sources.

[Pixel FX @PixelFXco]

@failclears And this is only an SDR capture, in HDR it’s even better.

[Pixel FX @PixelFXco]

@bytesaber_ Only the Morph 4K does Beam-to-Glass CRT Simulation, it’s the best CRT simulation available and is on the level of advanced GPU shaders. The deinterlacer on M4K is great, pair it with PS2 RetroGEM and it’s the best way to play PS2.

My family is watching It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown on an old VHS tape tonight, through the Morph 4K. 🎃

[Pixel FX @PixelFXco]

@seanlee It depends. There Morph 4K has a modular analog input that consists of two input ports that each can accept any signal format through their connector. If your goal is PS2 and GC same time, I would get dual VGA morph and use component to vga plugs.
