It''s great these exist. I've kept a big screen CRT (I think 40") TV for my playstation. I even got the reverse: an HDMI to component cable so I could hook my old Xbox to it once I bought a Series S (It squishes the image with some black bars on the side for some reason, but otherwise OK). What a great time to be a gamer :)

Okay, i have a problem. Looking by your video capture, it's clear that the image colors look correct in all the adapters. I have two adapters, one is bitfunx hdmi adapter for the playstation 1/2 and the other is simply called "ps2 to hdmi". In both adapters, the image colors are all slightly messed up, the blue looks green, the green and porple looks grayish and the yellow is very light, while red is the only color that doesn't change that much. I don't know why that is and I'd be thankful if anyone can tell me what's the problem

Third adapter doesn't work in PS1 games on PS2 (the second one, most likely, too). I've bought it because I didn't find any reviews or info on store pages stating that you can't, so, I thought it should work just fine. Yet it doesn't. It shows PlayStation logo and then screen goes black (there is also no sound). Need to find better solution to connect it to my capture card.

Sadly, the first one is absolutely friggin horrid for PS2. I was pleased with how this dealt with PS1 (goodbye OPL GSM 1080i), yet this adapter renders PS2 barely better than AV. It has very visible scanlines and ghosting, not to mention washed out colors. So, as lame as it is, I'll keep my old black PS2HDMI (adapter 3) for PS2 and use adapter 1 for PS1 games. The silver lining is, it allows you to play PS1 on PS2 over Component which adapter 3 doesn't do.

Apparently the Retrotink 4k / 5x etc, are higher quality, covers many systems (and video modes), but with it being far more expensive, it niches down the product making it good for those willing to spend the same price as a PlayStation 5 on an upscaler. These dongles are simply a one trick pony, for one purpose.
