I am still tinkering with settings etc trying to thin down the border.
Just to start with I started with the default border just to get up and running which is about 1cm on my screen, But I have got it down much thinner now.
I found that it was not picking up the border properly to start with when I thinned out the border, But with some tinkering I figured out it was because my TV is LED and it had a backlight setting set to eco (70%) When I whacked that up it picked up the thinner border no problem.
There are settings in the app to adjust brightness etc so I will tinker with them at another point to see if I can get the same effect with them.
Calibration is a 1 time thing set and forget (video of moving positions height and side to side to follow in next post).
But I have just had a full playthrough of the first "easy" stage of Point Blank without crosshairs and a quick blast on Time Crisis again of course with out cross hairs with no issues getting just past the first boss.
I am taking a break now for some food and to let my ribs rest (in a spot of pain atm which really aint helping!)

Just saw your post on Mame Arcade Cabinet Builders FB group, way too many Andy’s when talking about light guns :)
Ok so i dont want to wait for the full review, comment quickly on accuracy, lag, placement.
I hope you are getting someone over and do the same thing with dual guns!

I only have the 1 gun atm so cant do any 2 player yet but I have a second one coming.
Quick comments though accuracy 100% at all heights and side motion I tested (YT still processing video LOL), Lag none that I have noticed, Shot placement 100% once I dialed the settings in.
Jayinem:
Does it simulate a mouse or other?
I already have 180 Lightgun games in Launchbox that simulate a mouse with my EMS Top Gun 3, I would hate to start over.

I already have an EMS Top Gun 3 but for those that don't, they're selling for more on Ebay than a Sinden costs. The only advantage it has is it's wireless but there are issues such as mouse cursor getting stuck even if the gun is off. I still want a Sinden though even though I could just keep the EMS Top Gun 3 and it would be mostly fine.

Yeah it works as a mouse.
And I have no idea why the topgun 3 is expensive, they are ass IMO.
