RetroTink 5X Pro - New User Question

[Released: 1998] Born out of Sega's darkest hour to decide whether the company stays in the hardware business. Even though it didn't officially last long in the US, it was continued selling in Japan and spawned some great 2D Japanese shooters.

RetroTink 5X Pro - New User Question

Post by /dreamcast »

New RetroTink 5X Pro owner question here. I am using the 5X Pro for my Dreamcast. I tried using the standard A/V cable that came with the dreamcast (Red, Yellow, White) .... into the RetroTink 5X Pro - unfortunately, it looks super blurry, very disappointing. Is this because Im using a crappy cheap A/V cable into the 5X Pro? I ordered a RetroAccess Dreamcast 15kHz/31kHz 480i/480p SCART Cable - but its going to take a while to ship to me. Hoping this will yield better results.... Previously I was using a Kaico HDMI into an mClassic and honestly getting pretty good results, WAY better than the A/V cable to 5X Pro. Wondering if I should return the 350 dollar 5X Pro and keep my current setup. Thanks!

Here is a picture of the Kaico + mClassic for reference. The A/V into RetroTink looked like dog shit.
