RetroTink 5X-Pro Recommended Settings for PSP

This is a test video that shows my recommended RetroTink 5X-Pro settings for PSP.

Settings on PSP:
Video out set to Progressive with 16:9.

The RetroTink is using a custom profile using the following settings on FW:v3.0 (these settings apply to FW:v2.71 and later):

Output Resolution 1080p (Over)

Horizontal Sampling
Preset Generic 16:9

Post-Processing
+Pre-emph +3

Scaling/Cropping
H Position -208 (-424)
V Position -73 (133)
H (Interp) Size +31% (3405)
V Size +58% (1895) (note it may show as 1986 on an earlier version)
H Crop Start (184)
H Crop End (2088)
V Crop Start (24)
V Crop End (1099)

HDMI Output
V-Sync Frame Lock
VRR FreeSync (if your TV supports VRR)

The VRR flag was introduced in FW:v2.77. If your TV supports it, I recommend turning this setting on. I have found this can reduce the RetroTink's input lag of its Frame Lock and Genlock modes. Some TVs may also have a lower latency when receiving a VRR signal. In my case, it had a noticible reduction in input lag.

His settings were based on FW:v2.39 and was used as the starting basis for my recommended settings that I updated to accomodate the changes found in FW:v2.71 and later (which was the V and H positions). Later, I tested VRR flag when it came out in FW:v2.77.

His settings also used FW:v2.39 and would need adjustments for FW:v2.71 and later. I did try out his settings adjusted for later firmware versions, but I decided not to use them. He does have some options for alignment with scanline generation. However, I would need help remaking those settings for current firmware.
