Fudoh Preview

  • no D-Terminal breakout adapter included. Make sure to have one ready at home!
  • menu's completely in english. remote's completely in japanese.
  • no scanline density setting available. Scanlines are bit stronger than I like them (I prefer 160-175 on the XRGB-3)
  • no continuously adjustable zoom or overscan, just rough presets
  • "classic" scanlines work for 240p, 480i and 480p input
  • scaling engine looks ok, but not great
  • 240p processing looks very nice
  • 480i deinterlacing looks solid for real 480i titles, but weird for "240p on 480i" modes
  • 480p processing looked good on a "240p on 480p title" but kinda soft on a real 480p title
  • 480p output looks very much like a Faroudja processor (= less sharp than the XRGB-3)
  • 720p is great, 1080p is good.
  • 480p output with scanlines looks like a Videon + SLG3000
  • 720p output with scanlines looks like the XRGB-3 in B1
  • 1080p + scanlines = fail (because only 1 instead of 2 in every 4 lines are darkened, which doesn't look good)
