    How have you been liking the dock so far? I’ve been pretty hesitant to pull the trigger on it given its price (or rather given shipping and duties/taxes to add on top, hu).
    (Also, interesting way to stand up the - I’m guessing modded? - OG Xbox vertically, haha)

      The dock is ok, just wish it had more scaling and resolution options (I wanted to use it with the smaller display but that resolution is not 1080, so it looks too squished). It also lacks a lot in controller support. Otherwise it works well and does the job.

      Yep it’s the vertical stand from RetroFrog (model is on printables). And yes modded 1.1 og Xbox with 128mb ram, XboxHd+, and Stellar mod chip.

        Yeah, it’s pretty clear the Dock is only made for 16:9 displays, unfortunately :/
        I’m not extremely hopeful Analogue will patch in enough features/fixes to make it absolutely worth it, as they don’t have a great track record with their “accessories” (the under-saturation of the DAC’s Composite/S-Video output not being directly fixed after so many years does not make me hopeful tbh).

        Really nice setup :) I’ve been looking at the OG Xbox from afar, as the Series X is my first Xbox, so I have much to catch up on, but I’m really happy with the - admittedly very incomplete - backwards compatibility so far.
