A02U AA Chassis Lag & Light Gun Testing
by Eli Krause
Both 480p and 1080i have less than 1 frame of lag at 9ms. This chassis does not accept 720p.
| 1080i HDMI & YPbPr | 480p HDMI & YPbPR | 480i/240p |
|---|---|---|
| <1 Frame (9ms) | <1 Frame (9ms) | 1 Frame |
For the Guncon 2 to work, you must switch to 2-point at the calibration screen by pointing the gun off-screen and pressing the trigger and the C button at the same time. House of the Dead III for the Xbox natively outputs 480p, but light guns do not work.
