Title: MAME video settings
Post by: CrispyXUK2 on May 02, 2006, 09:34:14 am

Hi all,

I've acquired a nice 21" Sony PC Monitor that looks almost authentic in 640x480 which is great but what  are the recommended settings for MAME to prevent strange pixellation? so far Ihave these settings;

HW Stretch - 1
Cleanstretch - Auto
Keep aspect - 1
Resolution - 640x480

Some games appear a bit odd, is there a "Well Known" setting for MAME on VGA monitors?
