Could this be used to get HD quality picture for old nes, snes, sega video game consoles? Also does the dvdo affect latency in fps games like cod?

No, the edge will not turn the signal into an hd picture or something even close to one. You might get a slightly sharper or brighter picture, but that's it.

In a word, no. The DVDO Edge Green unit does not add any picture detail that doesn't already exist, only reconstructing the signal to fit the native format of the HDTV. A low quality picture will still look like a low quality picture. Since the unit totally rebuilds the picture, there will be some frame delay. This delay is not noticable in a non-controlled signal such as a TV show, movie, etc. But can be noticed if the signal/picture is interacted with via a controller.

not a game player, but the menu lets you manually set different resolutions and hz.

It doesn't up convert to 480p, no. It's basically used to clean up the picture quality by converting to Component. I used this, along with a custom cable, to hook up my old Sega Genesis. The picture definitely came through much brighter and clearer when compared to the original.

120HZ is a must for 3D movie watching. If your DVD is not 3D, it probably would not go that fast. I wonder anyone had experience in 3D playing on this player?

I don't own a DirecTV coax so I'm not sure. I have my GameCube and my PS2 plugged into a DVD/VCR combo which is plugged into the converter via the coax cables (the yellow, red, and white) and I have an HDMI cable coming out of the converter into my TV. The sound works perfectly, there is no time delay. It works perfectly for what I wanted. I hope this helps.

No, if you're referring to the Yellow, Red, & White connectors, this will not work. What you can do is get the RCA Component cables for your video game systems (Component cables have the same Red & White connectors for Audio, but replace the "Yellow" video connector with Red, Blue, & Green video connectors). If you do this, you will actually get better signal quality from your video games. I have a DVD Player, PlayStation 2, and Wii hooked up to mine after buying component cables and it works well. I recommend "Mediabridge" cables for your game systems. I find they are excellent quality (great shielding and strong connections) at very good prices.

Thanks Victor for the info. i am trying to burn the 1080p content onto DVD-R to see if PS3 can play. It turns out it does see the files and plays them but the audio is choppy. i tried cooying the file directly onto the PS3 Harddrive, even then the audio is choppy...the video is playing well though. any thoughts on how to make the audio better ?

I plugged it into an old VCR with rca plugs and it copied a regular resolution dvd onto tape, so I would assume the answer is yes, but remember that you might experience resolution issues if you are going from HD to low def.

I never used it for any videogame's I only used it for going back and forth between cable box and DVD Recorder it always took a couple of seconds between the unites but always worked. Hope this helped

I don't think it can since it has hd Component cables (Nes has one single Cable) If you wanted to record old school consoles (i.e) Ps1 and Other old school stuff N64 go with the dazzel or http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?gclid=CKiLvOSBq7sCFeYWMgodbwMAPg&Item;=N82E16815144045&nm;_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm;_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-Video+Devices+%26+TV+Tuners-_-N82E16815144045&ef;_id=Up4DqAAAAO0rskYH:20131212153638:s copy and paste but has more purposes. Avermedia is more the Xbox 360 and Ps3 and Wii's.

I just set up this DVD player tonight using an HDMI cable and the picture on my 52" HDTV was also quite grainy. I changed the setting on the dvd player from 1080p (auto) to 480 and that works much better. For now I'll keep this setting until I can figure out why the HDMI setting isn't working.(Update in a new post dated 12/27/08)

I have had the same frustrating experience, although I've not experimented with the same array of equipment as bwalter. Quite simply, I have a Pioneer Blu-Ray and (52") Plasma. And whether it's a Blu-Ray playing or a DVD being upscaled or a Region 1 or 2 disk, there's sometimes a video lag, but only sometimes! What I gather is that the plasma screen takes a little time to process its data, but it can be INCONSISTENT: It will sometimes shift within the same disk, which is why I've hesitated to buy an outboard audio delay controller. As bwalter asks, why is this problem not being seriously addressed, when clearly across the net there are many people posting complaints of this nature?

Almost certainly, it would not. I suspect it might even make the effect worse, because I had so much trouble using the unit with a VCR (only played bits and snatches of NTSC sourced video in 'high definition'. I saw more blank screen than content until I rigged the VCR to play through the tuner.Video standards are never perfect, nor would I expect a super nintendo to be able to source perfectly realistic (or smooth) HD content.

I have used this on an older Sony Trinitron and a Mitsubishi 55" WS-65413, to connect HDMI output devices to their Component inputs. It worked for 2 DVD players, and a direcTV box with no problems (both Audio and Video). It would work on an XBOX 360 as long as you never switched it to the other DVD input. If you changed the switch to the other hdmi input, the XBOX would turn off its video output, and would have to be restarted after you switched it back to the xbox from the dvd player. I got an xbox one for the boys for Christmas and cannot get the xbox one to work with it at all. I suspect its related to HDMI copyright protection, but I am just guessing.

I only use this device with an N64. There is no button input lag or loss of picture quality.

thats what i bought this device for, to record my cod clips while playing on a 480p tv, i was able to get video black and white but nothing else on my older tv, this works great for an hdmi tv tho, if you are getting this for the ps3 you will need a an hdmi component cable ($25) seperately

I have a dvd vcr player combo and it only had the standard rca connections. I hooked it up and it worked great. Even with a hdmi coupler between hdmi cables. I switched between the 720 and 1080 settings but couldn't tell a big difference but they both worked. It's definitely worth a shot.
