Hello everybody After years of playing puzzle bobble and super pang on mame I decided to build my own mame cabinet. I recently bought http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=280251574827&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=018 this off ebay. I have an old computer that I have installed freedos and dmame and installed it in the cabinet. So far I have cut up a VGA cable and connected it to the jamma connector. It plays jamma cartridges fine, but when I connect the PC up and run "dmame spang -monitor arcade" the image is shifted completly to the right, so much so that half the image is cut off the side and is unplayable. I have tried to turn all the dials on the arcade monitor with the following effects On the monitor main board focus (facing the back) Brightness (facing the back) unknown, doesnt do anything (facing the side) unknown, doesnt do anything (facing the side) On the back of the tube red green blue unknown, doesnt do anything unknown, doesnt do anything On the monitor I found a sticker with this on: POLO 25 (FS) CH.F. 63200811 SN 00984 Does anybody know how to adjust the monitor to the left? or maybe tell mame to move over, ive tried -centerx8 -centerx-8 but they dont seem to do anything. |

There should be a pot, or if it has a remote a funtion, for horiontal placement. Just like your PC CRT does. However, you might consider using Advancemame, as it will more automatically center the picture. Not always perfectly, but it's pretty good. |
