For image blur is sufficient to just connect PS2 by composite cable to TV with at at least native matrix in FullHD, and without using GSM. TV will make beautiful disaster with it which You expecting I believe.

But normally, peoples rather preferring razor sharp clear no interlaced image

Also the blur/AA/FF (flicker filter) you find natively on Ps2 games is shit. Disabling it is the first thing I do on every game (it is present in a lot of games, like GoW, Tekken 5, FFXII, SH3 and pratically every 2d fighting game and shooter, etc...).

It simply makes the picture less detailed and with dead colors (and even jaggies are just slightly mitigated).

Some games like FFX have the filter (a light one btw in this case) without the option to remove it. I like GSM for that, it completely disable the flicker filter.

Could you send me this version of the OPL?
The Rev 1708 causes black screen.

Unfortunately something is broken in OPL 1708:
https://github.com/ps2homebrew/Open-PS2-Loader/issues/473.

But if you want you can try rev 1701 or 1703 from the attachments.

So far i am having a smoother experience. I had pratically no stuttering in Kingdom Hearts 2' FMVs now.

Talking about Kingdom Hearts 2, does anybody know if the NTSC J version (not Final Mix) works on OPL through SMB? Because I found a pretty cheap copy of japanese KH2 on Ebay. So I thought I could buy it, make a ISO backup of the DVD and run it through OPL (the DVD reader of my PS2 is dead)

i tested an earlier opl v1.1.0-Beta-1633 and this version runs super dragon ball z usa and the twisted metal black prototype fine

strange the retail version of tmb seems to always freeze with all opl versions

It runs Super DBZ without any MODE? From wich device you tested?

I cannot find that version. Into the pack on MEGA, the oldest is beta 1697.

I can't start games through ETH with this version. Can you verify if it's the same for you?
