I'm *right now* in the process of coding the new patch that should fix, among other things, the issue mentioned here:
--- Quote ---Hi RetroACTIVE, yes I looked at your results. My conclusion is that the monitor_specs are already fine, but I need to fix GroovyMAME's modeline scoring system. If you have a look at your log, the right modeline is actually calculated in range 2, but GM is still picking the one from range 1 because it doesn't notice the second one is any better. That needs to get fixed.

It will take me one ore two weeks at least, please be patient :)

Hey Cal...no problem :) I have oodles of patience and time :)

I have the same monitor, but I'm using a ArcadeVGA as a video card. I'm having some issues with games like dkong and pacman running at like 88%. Looking at the output it's not picking the right resolution. I included my mame.ini and dkong output.
I'm just starting out, so I haven't played with anything yet. Wanted to check in before I did.
Thanks!

Not sure if there would be a difference between a straight up ATI vs. the ArcadeVGA. I think there might but I would check with Calamity.
I've not yet had a chance to check the latest version of GM against my setup yet. I'm excited because I think it has addressed my issues :)

Well that's good to hear. I read that the ArcadeVGA doesn't have the resolution options that you can get with a regular ATI card and the specialized drivers.

Hi Banacek,
It's picking the right resolution indeed, 400x256, it's only that this resolution has a refresh rate of 52 Hz, that's where the slowdown comes from. Try enabling -triplebuffering for that game, that will keep it at 100% speed regardless the refresh.
There's another resolution marked as 352x256@60, have you tried forcing that resolution?
