--- Quote from: wilch on May 23, 2012, 06:39:05 am ---i tried a few 50hz resolutions using a yres of 256, 272, 288 for winuae. as expected, the lower the number the higher the vfrq so if i want true amiga 50hz emulation i must settle for about half the screen being used with the other half in complete blackness. in arcade_osd the 50hz modelines do fill the screen (except x272 which has a thick black border at the bottom) so the amiga must have seriously over-compensated for tv overscan! if i could create a 50hz modeline similar to x288 and force a large amount of overscan then i could maybe lose much of the unused space and fill my screen with more actual game graphics... any ideas on how to do this without using the service menu?

Hi wilch, I think I don't get what the issue is with 50 Hz video modes. The fact is that you can create a 50 Hz for *any* usable yres you need, from 192 to 288. This is not true for 60 Hz, however, as you'll be exceeding the max hfreq. So as long as you add the correspondig resolution into ReslList.txt it will be calculated:

I think the issue can be with the older versions of VMMaker. Try with the one I posted here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=110905.msg1273376#msg1273376

As for the best TV brand, check Paradroid's blog:http://scarthunter.blogspot.com.es/, and also his posts here, they're full of incredibly useful information on TVs, aswell as Apfelanni's.

thanks for the info, the latest version of vmmaker did create the 50hz modes as requested (including 320 x 240), but they all have big black borders at the top and bottom. i this normal?

regards
