| TV as monitor - slight issue |

I'm using a 27" Toshiba CRT TV as my monitor. Looks great when in MAME but I've noticed that there's a "ghosting effect" in the background of games such as Galaga. Any game with a black background. For example in galaga you can see a faint trail left by the flying bugs that stays for about 30 seconds. What causes this and how can I fix it? Thanks. |

Oh, S-Video is the only option so that's what i'm using. |

I'm thinking it probably has something to do wit the monitor refresh rate or something similar. I'm not sure what the refresh rate should be set at for a tv. |

if it's standard res, it's going to be 60hz. Thirty seconds is a long time. More than three second would be a long time. Pictures or/and video might help. |
