The way into to options dialog is described on the mala homepage (Getting started) and in the included readme file (Use the right mouse button to open the options dialog again!) ....

Can you explain how MaLa determines the resolution to display at?  I couldn't find a setting to control this.  Thanks!

Would be cool if your hardware support (LED and LCD control) was made into a plug-in system so the MaLa hardware support could be replaced with plug-ins for alternatives (where others providing the alternatives had to write the plug-ins too).

Would love for the video panel to be able to default back to a snap when a title doesn't have a video to show.

How about support for image lists (ie select from a list of screenshots or marquees instead of text names ala UltraStyle, defaulting to a text label only when a image is not available)?

CM:
Looking good.   I think it may be time to change the FE soon.  :)

It's quite simple! It uses the resolution of your windows desktop.
Here is a explanation:

MaLa works with two kinds of layouts, fixed size layouts and scalable layouts.

Fixed size layouts are for a specific resolution like 640x288 or 288x640 on arcade monitors. Fixed size layouts will only work on this resolution.

Scalable layouts will scale to your selected screen resolution automatically. The only thing you have to consider is the ratio of your screen resolution.

1.33: 320x240, 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x960, 1600x1200
1.25: 400x320, 640x512, 800x640, 1280x1024, 1600x1280

That means a layout for 800x600 will also work on 1024x768 and so on. For all other resulutions use a fixed size layout.

MaLaLayout uses 800x600 and 800x640 as default for the scalable layouts.
