Awesome update with this Retro thing....
Question, gang.... in MamePlus! 0.138 (the GUI version 1.5)... it has options for ScanlinesTV and other image enhancements. Thing is, no matter what I choose, I see no difference on my LCD. Is there anything I'm doing wrong?
Please let me know, thank you!

To state a fact mentioned here prior, these generators are an amazing way to get a consistant scanline effect regardless of emulator !
Wanted to add that out of the box with my 60 in 1 board + LCD monitor the effect was nice, clear, and pronounced. I'd still like to adjust it, but with the positioning of the board in the cabinet, I can't tweak and see. Wife still wont lend me her eyes !
Now with my MAME cabinet + LCD the effect was honestly minimal.
** I should add this is no fault of the product ! Just my inability to do what is required ! **
I tried adjusting the swithces on the side to see which would provide the most intense effect.
Honestly in MAME I'm sure I've made tweaks to enhanace graphics, and didn't want to goto the trouble
of trying to figure out what I could do to decrease the graphics quality. (If you wanna call it decrease)
Anyway, just to state it should someone be like me and not want to take the 30 seconds to mess around and tweak something. When I took the 30 seconds to adjust the RGB knobs WOW ! The effect was amazing. The lines POP ! The adjustments dont take away from the picture, they just make the lines POP!
I think $20 is a great price and I think I'd like to try one the RETRO VGA.
Where do they ship from ? Being in Canada sometimes we cant win with custom and taxes (and brokerage fees)..............UGHHH....the fees !

Brazil, postage is expensive if you're buying just one thing but then thats hardly their fault. If you're into retro gaming Bruno also developed a USB retropad where you can use the original controllers instead of usb varients, and like all Brunos stuff it's open, so if you fancy building your own all the documents are there to help you.
