Best regard.
My name is Luis, I'm from Bogotá Colombia.
I currently have a multi-game machine with a 26-inch monitor, XP Operating System, ATI Saphire 1550 Card, and Groovymame.
Overall operation is good.
But I have a problem, and it is the image .... I really see it very pixelated with any emulator, not only with mame but with snes or psx.
The scanlines are visible to the images, but they are pixilated. (the resolution is the native one)
I recently did the test with an original NeoGeo with a cassette of 16 in 1, and the truth is that the image changes is softened with its perfect scanlines and not so pixelated.
If someone who has knowledge in the subject could help me, I would appreciate it very much, and would tell me that I should change in the configuration. Or there is simply nothing to do.
The connection cable from the card to the monitor is good, it does not have any failure.

What type of monitor do you have?

Can you post some photos of what you mean by "pixelated" and "not so pixelated"?

Please create a GroovyMAME log for a game where you are seeing this problem.

Steps to create a log:
 - From command line, run: groovymame.exe -v romname >romname.txt
 - Attach resulting romname.txt file to your post, instead or pasting it.

My monitor is a 26-inch arcade monitor. Today I make the request to show you.

Well the problem is in all games, how to say it does not look bad but a hundred that the games look very pixelated, you see many pictures, you have scanlines but it is not softened as you see in the original mvs.
What a pity the annoyance
