Cocar 15 inch CCTV Security Monitor with BNC VGA HDMI AV Built-in Speaker 4:3 HD Display LCD Screen Display with USB Media Player for Home Surveillance Camera STB PC

This monitor caught my attention because it has RCA composite inputs along with speakers, so I thought it would be a cheap display option. The situation is hampered by a number of issues. On the left-hand side of the screen, there is a band of static that moves from the bottom to the top of the screen. There is so much bad formatting that text is impossible to read. The second problem is that the colors are really poor. They merge into each other (you can see a bit of the static band as well) this is what is shown in the picture. In addition, after verifying that these issues weren't from the C64, I'll make a point to mention it. One reason is that the C64's composite output looks fine on other TVs and monitors I have. Another reason is that I tried hooking up the C64 through a retrotink mini x2 upscaler and my modern laptop via HDMI and both issues persisted. However, the video quality of this monitor is still unacceptable, even when you are only using Second, the power cord for this laptop is extremely short, and it doesn't reach from my desk to the power strip directly beneath it, which is on the floor. In general, this monitor is good enough for it intended purpose, but it is not useful as a small, versatile monitor for your retro computer or video game console. If you want a quality 4 then you should spend your money this way A mid-range monitor with 3 screens This decade.

The monitor I use for cameras has a number of video inputs, so I really love it.
