I guess I would, but I've yet to enjoy component the way it's supposed to be. The more I've thought of it, I've been trained to watching s video and it has taken me a minute to realize how clear the component is. This could solve many a problem as I've had a difficult time finding either a fe or emulator that likes playing on the secondary monitor. I just can't figure out how to make the resolution stay when I make the t.v. the primary monitor. :banghead:

Have you tried setting the regkey in the .bat file? Mine is listed here:
HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\iAlm\Device0
HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\iAlm\Device1
It might be worth a shot.

John, I'm dumb and don't understand what you mean there. Please explain if further detail what you're talking about.
Escher, your layouts have to be in the resolution that you want to use. If you have tried this, I am trully a dingleberry. If not, I would throw them in Photoshop and resize them and try that. I'll see if there is any topic on the mamewah forum at www.mameworld.info.
Oh, by the way, I GOT THE T.V. TO WORK AT 640x432 AS THE PRIMARY MONITOR! I JUST TOLD MAME THE RESOLUTION NEEDED. SORRY FOR THE CAPS, BUT I'M YELLING THIS AS I'M TYPING. MY WIFE IS WONDering why I was doing that. Sorry honey.

I could ---smurfing--- cry. I have got mamewah to work on the t.v.! I'm not yelling this time. Anyways, I am using mamewah 1.62b9, but downloaded 1.61 to get the layout editor. In it, you can change the layout to 640x432. I will have to use a photo editor to change the size of the background pic, but never the less, it worked. I do have one problem, my screen is split right down the middle and it looks like two of the same thing split by a 4" black bar down the middle. I'll investigate further, but at least it is viewable. Having the preview movie on the other screen is the ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. :cheers:

I just had another great moment in gaming history(okay, that might be a stretch). I think I may use the light guns on the computer monitor. It is at the right height for an adult, is not at an angle, and, the best part, I wouldn't have to stand that far away. The lightbars also wouldn't be that ugly located up there. Man, this is really coming together now. I may also experiment with some other front ends for the resolution issues. Man, youse guys should see it. :)
