So, 148.500,1920,2008,2052,2200,1080,1084,1089,1125,1080,1080 is what i need to use for the modeline??

These are the values you need:

  Horizontal scan range.... 26-68kHz
  Vertical scan range...... 24-60Hz

This is how they're used in the monitor_specs line:

monitor_specs0            26000.00-68000.00,48.00-60.00,0.636,3.813,1.906,0.318,0.064,1.048,0,0,1080,1080

Also, you can extract the optimal porch values for your TV from its preferred modeline:


--- Quote from: lettuce on August 21, 2011, 04:15:21 pm ---    Modeline............... "1920x1080" 148.500 1920 2008 2052 2200 1080 1084 1089 1125 +hsync +vsync

--- End quote ---

But you can't use the numbers in the modeline directly, you need to calculate the values out of those numbers. You can use PowerStrip for this or even Arcade_OSD, activating the 1920x1080 video mode and going into geometry settings to grab the timing values. However you don't need to do this as GroovyMAME will get the timings directly from PowerStrip. Only the values explained above should be needed.

Powerstrip

Fine, but you don't need the VMMaker app as you're not using an ATI card.

These are the only options you should need to change in mame.ini:

monitor lcd
monitor_aspect 16:9
monitor_specs0            29000.00-50000.00,50.00-70.00,0.636,3.813,1.906,0.318,0.064,1.048,0,0,1080,1080

You'll probably need to raise that hfreq 50000 figure to something around 70000 or so, check your TV's documentation or use the MonInfo app to get the right ranges.

However that won't fix things because the main problem is this:


--- Quote ---SwitchRes: Warning, too many active modelines for storage 251

--- End quote ---

This is probably a bug that I introduced with the last patches, or a maybe there are actually too many video modes available in your system. Could you please check with Arcade_OSD the number of resolutions reported, just activate one of the modes and you'll see the number between ().

Ok have tried to load Arcade_OSD but just get a small black window and the egg timer all the time, does this work in windows 7?? Is there a way to cut down the available video modes in my system so mame works??

EDIT: I dont think this is a bug in your latest test build as i have just downloaded groovymame64_0143.01b and still get the error message...

Is this possible?

Calamity:
It's strange you have so many video modes available in that system, probably several instances of each mode are being listed for some reason. I've just arrived today, hopefully in a day or two I can make a patch so it won't crash because of that, I'm curious to see which modes are listed. By the way, have you tried Hyperspin in that system?
