[Question]: 480i with Gamecube Component cables on Trinitron CRT #1065

Closed stefcep closed 11 months ago

Describe your question

My TV ( Sony Trinitron PAL) cannot display 480p. The UI opens in 480p. The screen is doubled and unreadable. I don't want to boot in composite and then plug in my (expensive) component cables in and out all the time. Can I select the UI to display in 480i?

Screenshots

You should be able to set this by going into the video settings, then changing: Video Mode -> PAL (60hz) Rendering -> Original (240p) [not required but highly recommended if using a CRT]

That's correct, if your preferences aren't saved or are set to "auto" video mode then you will end up in progressive mode on gamecube due to this code:

ifdef HW_DOL

        /* we have component cables, but the preferred mode is interlaced
         * why don't we switch into progressive?
         * on the Wii, the user can do this themselves on their Wii Settings */
        if(VIDEO_HaveComponentCable())
            mode = &TVNtsc480Prog;
        #endif

but if you've saved your preferences to the above, you'll bypass this check. Closing this there's a workaround.
