1. flicker
2. Flicker
3. FLICKER!
4. 30 fps, instead of 60.
(60hz screen, odd lines on the first pass, even on the second, maximum 30 fps.)

That is possible. There is a limit in ATI's driver to around 20 custom resolution but later versions of powerstrip has a workaround that allows hundreds of resolutions.
But it is not necessary.
For my cabinet I made a list of all pixels aspect ratios and then grouped the games

RE: Interlace. Its worth noting that a windows screen always looks very flickery when interlaced. Run a mame game and often you can't tell....
RE: Resolutions.
I've not been thinking about pixel aspect ratios enough. So you're trying to set games so they run at resolutions with the correct pixel aspect (makes sense). Does a 464x224 work on a 608x480 resolution? Scaling up would still leave you with large borders top and bottom right?
ok a test:
aspect ratio
aspect ratio test
aspect ration
I added the n on the 3rd line. I did not intentionally add a n in my previous post....
EDIT: Hmmm no joy on the aspect ratio secret n adding.....

Probably not until I get my new aspect correct code into mame. Tested the code last night and it works fine execpt that resizing is a little jumpy when you run the game in a window. Will look at that tonight.

Ok good that makes sense.... I hope your submission is accepted!
Also thanks for taking the time to answer all the quickfire resolution questions - its much appreciated.
