      I have the scanlines overlay turned on with an LCD. I find that the movement also makes me nausious after some time, and it seems to blur the movement a bit, I will be removing them again once I have enough time to remember where the setting was.

        @nossral i didnt notice them being too big on a 37” jvc when i set mine up. But i use a 13” sony flat crt now. You dont have scanlines turned on in the emulators do you?

          @edmaul69 thanks for the reply! No all overlays and shaders are off. Some games look worse than others. But maybe thats how it looked back then, long time since i played on the original consoles. But something still feels off, still get naucious and some strange rainbow effects appear in certain games. 🤔

                @edmaul69 no, i mainly just play nes and Snes games. Im adding some photos to show what im talking about. Pic1 megaman x health bar Secret of mana dialogue text. @Rion i have the Pi connected via the 3.5 jack to a scart adapter into the Scart input of the Trinitron. Just by watching the pictures i get slightly nausiated ^^

                  @nossral I would recommend to switch to RetroTINK or pi2scart instead.

                  More info here

                        @rion thanks! I will check it out, do i need rgb input to use these 2? Or will it work anyway? Im not sure my trinitron supports it. Is there anyway to know?

                          @nossral Yes look at the back of the tv. Do you have a scart input?

                              @nossral AFAIK the orange scart is S-Video, black scart is RGB

                                I would go with RetroTINK Ultimate and a VGA to Scart cable with two external Audio connections.

                                To get better audio instead of using the built-in 3.5mm audio jack a would recommend a usb soundcard.
