Review: Classic Games AND! - This upscaler is remarkably impressive, I’d go as far as to express, it’s genius. I occasionally utilize it for it’s intended purpose, that is to say, classic video games. The aforementioned look sharper, cleaner and all around sexier. However, where this upscaler really shines exists outside the sphere of gaming. I actually purchased this upscaler for a few purposes; cartoon/anime dvds (because bootleg eBay anime is way cheaper and it only comes on dvd). Standard films on dvd, the live-action cinema stuff, and finally… Homemade AVCHD dvds. For those unfamiliar with that last format, AVCHD dvds are a really neat format that Sony released specifically for it’s camcorders, however, the format has been widely adopted outside of mere camcorder recordings and is utilized by quite a few software services now such as Nero and DVDFAB. Basically, an AVCHD dvd is a completely high definition dvd (full 1080p or 720p as specified). Not to be confused with the crappy HDDVD format that pathetically lost out to blu ray. The file structure of an AVCHD dvd is basically that of a blu ray, and they can only be played on specific (mostly Sony) Blu Ray players. If anyone is interested in the format, just ensure that the Blu Ray players you purchase are absolutely without a doubt compatible with AVCHD dvds, as the vast majority are not. Now, typical Blu Ray movies range from roughly 25gb-50gb at the highest quality. Whereas dvd disks cap out at 8gbs with the dual layers, 4gbs for the single layers. Doing the math, a 4gb AVCHD dvd would be at best ~20% the quality of a lower quality Blu Ray or ~12.5% the quality of a higher quality Blu Ray film. An dual layer 8gb would in turn be ~33% or ~17% in the same respect. None of these numbers sound great in comparison to an actual Blu Ray, however, at the rate of compression AVCHD dvds look as decent as most mkv files. Not terrible, way better than a standard definition dvd, but not amazing either. As for myself, if I’m going to use all my disks, I want everything to be as high quality as possible. Really sick films that I favor, I’ll put on a blank Blu Ray disk. Everything else? The AVCHD dvd format saves me money as dvd disks are cheaper and ups my quality. But naturally, as I was raised a greedy American, I want more. Yes the upscaler, I’m getting to it. Now, after buying 25gb blank Blu Rays and 4gb blank dvds in bulk to burn my digital film collection to hard copies, I wanted the best possible quality. Enter the M-Classic. I was skeptical at first, as it appeared that it was made almost entirely for classic video games but I thought I would give it a shot. There is an alternative upscaler that’s similar but upscales to 4k or some such absurd resolution that I’ll never upgrade to because it’s a complete waste of money. I’m elated to say that the M-Classic vastly exceeded all of my expectations. There aren’t many items that have really earned that 5/5 star rating but this upscaler is certainly one of them, and it’s worth every penny. Anime dvds look fantastic, standard definition live-action films look excellent, and finally my AVCHD dvds look amazing. Nearly as good as a full Blu Ray, and the perfectionist within me is finally content. The bottom line is, whether you want it for classic gaming, standard dvds etc, this upscaler is astounding. A lot of Blu Ray players claim to upscale standard def dvds to 1080p and it’s total crap, buy this and join me in the happy camper category.
Review: Great Aggressive Graphics Enhancer, but Watch Out for Counterfeits! - Marseille recently and explicitly stated to me that genuine products with their custom in-house chipset can only be obtained directly from them, even if the fulfiller is desertcart. Long story short: Do NOT Buy if not "Sold by Marseille Inc. and Fulfilled by desertcart" or "Shipped and Sold by Marseille Inc." You'll most likely receive a defective unit with a generic Silicon Valley chipset instead. I had to learn the hard way when I was investing in these. Overall, now that I know how the company operates, I will no longer be buying products by this brand that are "Shipped and Sold by desertcart", or shipped and sold by any other merchant for that matter. They are no longer trustworthy. I was using their products with a PhotoFast 4K Gamer Pro before, but they were counterfeits, and burned ringing artifacts into my upscaler's chipset. Thank goodness for Asurion Complete Protect. Who knows where my 4KGP would be without it? As for this particular product, if you plan to use it with a 4KGP, you will want to use a downscaler with at least 18 GB/s video bandwidth set to downscale 1440p@60Hz to 1080p@60hz, to ensure that no jagged lines appear on the upscaled image, and so that the mClassic uses the 1080p resolution instead of the 1440p. It is crucially important that you use a downscaler and not an EDID emulator, or you will get an aliased image. This does not apply if your product is a genuine mCable. It is also recommended that you should only need one to two Marseille products prior to upscaling to 4K. More than this would be overkill, and may worsen your image. For the best results with mClassic, try this formula: (1) Connect your 1080p consoles to an HDMI Switch using HDMI 2.0(a) or higher rated cables, and then plug the input on the mClassic into the output of the HDMI Switch. If you're only connecting one, plug the mClassic directly into the console. You will need to utilize the included HDMI 15cm extension cable if it's a Nintendo Switch, however. (2) If you desire to add a boost to the effects, buy a second mClassic and use the included extension cable to connect its input to the input of the first mClassic. If not, please skip this step. (3) Connect the input of your 1080p-set downscaler to the output of the last mClassic in the chain by any means necessary. If using an HDMI cable, please make sure it's rated HDMI 2.0(a) or better. (4) Connect the 4KGP input to the output of the downscaler. The extension cable isn't required, but may result in too long of a chain if you do use it. (5) Connect the output of your 4KGP to the rest of your equipment, and so on. (6) Buy a dedicated power source like the Anker PowerPort 4, and use it to supply power to all graphic enhancers connected using the USB cables included with each graphic enhancer. Bottom line, the end result all depends on how you do it. Just be sure to avoid EDID emulators, as they will generate aliasing, like I've mentioned earlier, and you shouldn't run into any problems.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this for blu-ray and DVD  mediavia ps3?**
A: Yes as long as your hdmi and tv support the proper resolutions. But don't expect ground breaking results. The point of this is to help clean the image which it does. Don't expect a 720p dvd to turn into a theatre 4kuhd.

**Q: If i keep the unit in retro mode for 4:3, will newer generation consoles like the switch or ps4 also be in 4:3?l**
A: Yes they will be. It forces all video to that aspect ratio.

**Q: My tv is samsung smart 1920x1080p, but the mclassic in full processing mode only goes to 1366x768p, why?**
A: Other factors come into play 
Verify your cable coming from the mclassic to the tv is full hd 1080p (anything higher technically doesn't do harm but won't improve the picture on your tv since its 1080p) 
Verify that if your tv has any setting for deep color / ultra deep color / high definition color reproduction 
Of it does, toggle it on. See what happens. 
If it's already on, toggle it off and see what happens. 
Also verify the tv hdmi port settings. Some hdmi may not appropriately read the signal coming from the cable/mclassis so try another if your tv supports it. 
So overall check: 
Tv settings 
Tv ports 
Hdmi cable

**Q: Is the wii u able to render 4k or 1080p whit this upscale mcable when you hook it up in a 4k tv???**
A: 1080p.  Unless you have a display capable of 1440p, then it can upscale to that.  It can only pass through a 4K signal From a 4K source.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works just ok or great depending on the game and input
*by R***T on October 5, 2020*

This little device can make a huge difference or make such a tiny difference you can barely notice it at all, it widely depends on the game you are using it for, I used it for the nintendo switch most of the time. It's important to note you must know what resolution your games are running at to be able to set the system resolution to match the game's resolution, otherwise if you leave the system on 1080p at all times you will get inferior results with lower resolution games. In 1080p games like smash bros or mario kart 8 deluxe I could barely notice any difference, some of the jagged edges were smoothed out but you have to really look for it when you are standing very close you a large screen. The same goes for 2d games like Mighty switch force, Rayman legends or wonderboy and the dragon's trap, those games have good antialiasing already so the Mclassic won't make a huge noticeable difference unless they have low res textures. With 1080p games I can live without the Mclassic but it DOES give games a little bit of a visual improvement that I appreciate. In 720p games the results vary depending on the game, in Runner 3 the game did not look noticeably better at all, in super mario 64 from the 3d all stars collection some jagged edges were smoothed out nicely while others still kind of stood out, with these two games a lot of the jagged edges are still there they are just less sharp than before, it's like someone very lightly sand papered the edges but didn't really smooth out the surface at all. However in Starlink battle for atlas the Mclassic made a huge noticeable difference, the game without it looks extremely blurry, yet the Mclassic clears it up beautifully. It's the same story with Xenoblade Chronicles 2, what was once a very blurry and pixelated looking game now actually looks smooth and clear, in Xenoblade Chronicles definite edition this also happens although to a lesser extent than with 2. With 720p games it is a little bit of a gamble, but I found that in most cases the Mclassic does make a difference, cases like Runner 3 are very rare, most times it will make a blurry game look very smooth. In 480p games I decided to use my Wii U as I have Wii, N64 and some homebrew gamecube games installed, for Wii on the Wii U the Mclassic was ok, pixelation is still noticeable but you definitely notice it is much worse once you go back to the regular picture, with Gamecube games the result is similar to how Wii games look but makes some colors look much more vibrant which is very nice, the absolute best results I have seen from the Mclassic however is with the Wii U virtual console versions of N64 games, it smooths out these games so well, they nearly look like they're in HD, what impressed me the most is in Ocarina of time, your minimap is always very pixelated, but the Mclassic actually smoothes it out, some of the 2d elements in n64 games look great. For 480p games the results are very good most times, but absolutely amazing for n64 games. I think the Mclassic is worth it for a very specific type of person, if you want to play classic 5th gen 3d games on a modern TV this thing will make some of those games look absolutely amazing, making it absolutely worth the price for you. If you want if for your nintendo switch I would say it is still worth it as it makes a big difference in some games, I think it would also work very well for other systems with primarily 720p games like Wii U, ps3 and xbox 360, so I recommend it for those systems, it may also work well for the original VHS player style xbox one, as many games from that system run at 720p from what I can tell. I do not recommend it for use on an original ps4 or ps4 slim, it could make a difference for some games but nothing big enough to justify the 100 dollar price tag, not to mention the Mclassic takes away the ps4's HDR capabilities. If you want to use it for a ps4 Pro or xbox one x I would advise you to not purchase this product as it doesn't do much for 4k games, native 4k and even some checkerboard 4k really does not need any antialiasing, you are good with the system as it is, the clearer colors might be a nice perk but it's nothing compared to HDR which is something the Mclassic does not support. Overall I am very happy with my purchase, it has made some of my switch games look much nicer and my n64 games look nearly HD, under very specific use cases the Mclassic is a very useful tool.
