With regard to the poll...I would be interested to know the split of people who use each FE and what screen type they are using. I say this because a lot of the FE's are geared towards nice eyecandy, but I wonder if people with low res. screens use them? Or are there more people with multi-sync screens than standard res. nowadays? Just curious... |

HyperSpin scales the themes, images and videos to sizes in relation with the resolution that is being used. So even at low resolutions HyperSpin still looks pretty good. Scaling up to bigger resolutions does cause some images not to look as well though. I know that we have many users that are running arcade monitors and I don't think many (if any) have complained about visual quality in the Front End. I'm not sure if that's an answer to your question/poll... |

Though I've considered trying a new frontend several times, Mamewah still has my loyalty. I don't really care much about eye candy, I just want to have a good menu system I can work with and gives my guests no problems. Since you asked about monitors.... Up until yesterday, I was running a PC monitor horizontal at 640x480@60, but now I'm using 1024x768@60 (though I haven't adjusted my layouts yet for the resolution change. It would be a nice feature not to have to do this. Sure, the 640x480 layout displays full screen, but there is a resolution change each time I enter and exit a game) |
