A video of me venturing behind the TV to install/integrate my cheap VGA scaler, SLG3000 and Dreamcast VGA box into my entertainment unit. I also give some examples of how the scaler + SLG improve the visuals of Wii and GameCube games as well as homebrew emulators. I also waffle for a bit about what's going on behind my setup and how things are hooked up.
Overall I'm very impressed with the scaler+SLG combo when used with the Wii. It genuinely looks like a completely different console to me now! The colours are vibrant, the image is sharp and the scanlines are beautiful. I actually want to play the system now! :)
I have the Wii set to output a 480p 4:3 aspect ratio signal over the component cables. Those are then hooked up to the scaler which outputs a 480p VGA signal which feeds into the SLG3000. That then goes to into my TV's VGA input and displays on screen as a 60Hz 480p 4:3 image. My Dreamcast displays the same image but doesn't require the scaler. Since the DC outputs a 480p VGA signal natively, It feeds directly into the SLG3000 then straight to the TV.
