I’ve looked at some YouTube videos & it looks great, I have to admit..
But one of the reasons I want to use a fixed resolution, is that I don’t want to adjust the monitor for every game that has a different screen size. From what i’ve seen, you end up having black borders  :-\

That’s the main reason why I always stayed away from GroovyMAME to be honest.

abispac:
runing games at 640x288 aint that bad, games look ok and as long as you have fun , thats wha it really should mater. Back in the days when we had dos, im dont really recall if games were running in theyr natural resolution or a certain fixed resolution, all we cared was, the game was running on a crt screen. Now, having groovymame and emudrivers is a blessing as most games can run at theyr natural resolution with no problem. If a certain game runs and gets black bars or starts scroling, i just create a ini file for that particular game to run at 640x480, witch makes the game stable. Now un multigames, since verticl games i run with a bezel to fill out the whole screen, i just create a fixed ini for vertival games and they all run good. I still get some games that give some hiccups li mr do, but i get working just fine with a mrdo ini. So in that way , most games run in thery natural resolution and some not but they all look great to me, im not a purist. 

makya:
Well, just my opinion but having occasional small black borders is way more preferable than being off frequency-wise (@288p you must be stuck @50Hz) and resolution-wise 99.9% of the time.
