Luckily, Dreamcast demos were rare. (I'm not sure we ever actually had one in competition.)
Also tricky are the 8-bit home computers (most importantly C64) outputting a progressive scan full-framerate (50Hz or 60Hz) signal, also not actually supported by the relevant video standards and accomplished using hacks.
This became more and more of a problem as time went on and video capture equipment expected signals to be less quirky.
