/vr/ - Retro Games

Question: what is considered the best upscaler nowadays? I've been planning on buying one for a long time now, to get around the awful forced deinterlacing on my tv.

I'd like to get one which can handle both pal and ntsc titles, and both 240p and 480i. Scanlines are not important, but the ability to use both composite, scart rgb, and component would be great. Also, handle the oddball timing formats like a 60hz modded PAL megadrive.

The Frame Meister is the best choice iirc, but it has very slow resolution switching (they didn't fix this in firmware yet?). I mainly play Saturn games, and a lot of those switch resolutions often.

What other options are there, which can handle all 240p60, 288p50, 480i60 and 576i50 combinations, and output them to 1080p HDMI? Or even just properly line double them up so they can be used through VGA input?

I know this is a CRT thread but I hope to not get a backlash. This is the first time I've ever posted in a CRT thread.

With CRTs getting older and older, and the better ones harder to find, would it make more sense to just purchase a Mini Framemeister?

Admittedly, the only retro console I own right now is a PS (and the Atari Flashback 2), so I don't know the wonders of playing on a CRT in today's world. I used to play SNES and N64 and NES all the time as a kid, but that was the last time I played those consoles on an actual TV.

So in preparing myself for display quality when I actually got those systems, I've been doing research. I've decided that the Sony Trinitron TVs seem to be the overall best home televisions, and that the Mini Framemeister would be the best solution on modern TVs.
But now I'm thinking of ditching the idea of investing the space in a CRT at all.

Thoughts? Anyone here own both that can attest?
