I've been wondering about this but never really took the time to investigate.  Ummm, what exactly is wrong with Galaga's video?  It looks perfect to me.  ???

I believe they use a simulation of the starfield backdrop as opposed to actually emulating the hardware that creates it.  It looks good to me also, but technically, it's imperfect emulation.

Ok I dont know why but for some reason my brain just glossed right over this part of the post...  I don't get it either..  It was most likely because I was looking at this at around 3 in the morning...

Will do.

A couple of comments -

First, I don't think you can use the MKChamp method that we are recommending with 0.104.  I believe his .diff files only came out in 0.107 onward to add hi-score support back in (skipping intro screens was a bonus).  To use his method you need the right .diff file for the MAME version you are compiling.  If you search for posts by MKChamp, there have been about 4 different ones since MAME 0.107.

I explain how to do it here - http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=36217.msg318959#msg318959 but for MAME versions around 0.63 or so.

For intermediate versions, your best bet is to use SAdev's MAME Tweaks http://www.joymonkey.com/main/index.php?n=MAMEUtilities.CompilingMAME and compile your own or use either BuddaMAME or NoNAMEMAME without having to re-compile.

Personally, I think you might lose speed going from 0.108 to 0.104 - you definitely will if you use overlays or backdrops as you will be going previous to the reworked code introduced in 0.107.  I would definitely run the binaries and test any speed gain before I worried about trying to do a custom compile for a build that might not help you.
