I think we'd all appreciate knowing what a product is capable of, even long in advance of final. It gives us a good understanding of what to expect coming up, even if things change closer to or after release.

Just post your videos however you want. Then smoke a cigar and tell the trolls to deal with it.

Saroo is great but lacks burned backup support that the pseudo kai carts have

If you own a TINK4K, the Analogue Dock's shortcomings can be overcome via decimation/prescale.
Additionally, you might want to keep the Dock just for convenience.... If you start a game save on Pocket and then want to continue it on your TV via MiSTer, you'd have to pull out the SD card and transfer the save. Much more tedious than just slotting into the Dock. (Shame the Pocket doesn't have WiFi!)

Doom on the big screen at the Dallas Cowboys stadium.

Thats the only thing that comes to mind

If u have the har ddrive space, and don't mind waiting forever to process, and u want the best posible quality, ad kind of get a kick out of making sure fully optimized quality, then captturing lossess is a good way to go. Then u can edit it to your heartts content with no loss of quality during editing, and only compress once when done. Then it gets hit with 1 more compress when u upload it to youtube., , so stil onlly 2 lossy compresions. If the footage is precious too and u want to archive losses today and want to hold onlto it for years to come, maybe u want to go back and re edit or grab clips from it, I thnk it is fun to be ensuring max quality at al times. but only if u havge the cash to afford the storage space.
