The cheap adapters actually cause distortion around the mouse cursor as well as lag, so they would be unsuitable for drawing.

There is also the matter of not-so-faithful color reproduction.
But I guess you can't blame a $20 box for not doing a perfect job For crisp and fast and faithful we need to cash out more. As it stands right now, D520 is my likely pick. |

I’d like to see a demo vid of the D520 in workbench and Dpaint. I have a Retrotink SCART and it looks ok in games etc but completely awful in workbench.

I made a quick test recording off a D520 of WB, some Amiga Test kit footage and some DPaint.
[ Show youtube player ] I wasn't feeling very artistic, mind. Also youtube appears to have messed up the checkerboard pattern in the Amiga Test Kit, in reality it looks like this (see attachment) |

Thanks, saves my effort. Of course Youtube packing ruins the sharpness, it basically is a pixel perfect Amiga scaler no matter what software you run, as long as it is in PAL or NTSC.

The D520 really looks nice indeed! I got the one mentioned in the first post btw, just recorded a short session, it really works and for the right price not bad

I would like to see a direct comparison between D520 and OSSC.

I got the d520 . It does not work correctly on my generic flatscreen branded Denver. It could be the tv though. However on my panasonic telly it works well but in beast 1 and turrican 2 it seems several sound channels are misding. It may be outputting 2 channels at most. Has anyone else experienced this. Unless running from whdload causes it? I should try a floppy disk to rule out whdload. I will try on my parents flatscrern too. Otherwise i will have to return it perhaps.
