Resolution Of Tv Out

[RichyX]

Was just wondering what resolution the tv out can handle.
HD is obviously out, but can it do more than 320x240?

It's just 320x240 but it can play video that's a much higher resolution. It just downgrades it.

It looks fine on an old (preferably small) CRT TV, especially if you're playing old games that were only lo-res anyway. It looks pretty poor on a 42" LCD tho.

Not sure if this is just me seeing things but to me the menu seems a higher resolution when plugged into the TV, but films all seem to play at about the native 320x240 (I doubt it could decode a higher res easily). The TV-out is certainly capable of a higher resolution.

That's a pity, we have a 50 inch plasma so 320x240 would look pretty bad.
Ordered a Dingoo anyway.
Seems like the best spiritual successor to my long dead GP32s.

I think the TV-OUT is composite only anyway so it's limited to low resolution displays.
You're not ever going to get HDTV out of it to TV-OUT.

Never expected HD, 720 x 576 would have been nice though.

If you find yourself in a hotel room with a 14inch 4:3 CRT your Dingoo will be your best friend. Playing classic games thru the TV out is sweet but playing on an HD flatscreen introduces lag which ruins a lot of old games.
