Didn't really help my dreamcast, but it could have been the tv or tv converter box.

Rating: - Works, but...
Got this with my Dreamcast for christmas, It works fine, but the connector broke within weeks of owning it. It still works, but, the color quality has been lowered and it always falls out of the back of my TV.
Rating: - Not a very good connector
With any RFU adapter for any system, you lose more than you gain. Everything comes out of one connector pin - video & sound - and the amount of qulaity loss is substantial. The video quality is hampered in that it becomes really, really dim, the colors bleed, and it doesn't have the crispness that hi-res games should have. The audio is in mono and at a low-fidelity. The standard connection is with A/V cables (where video, left & right audio each have their own wire); check to see if your VCR or tv has these, it's much improved over RFU. The BEST possible connection is with S-Video (a video cable where color information and brightness are seperated), but not many smaller tv's have this.
If you have to use RFU, then by all means buy this product. Just be aware of the loss of quality.

Attention Dreamcast Shoppers: Be sure to order this at the time you get your Dreamcast console. It is vital if you have an older TV. Without this unit you will not be able to use your Dreamcast until you have one.
