So if I play further with the video resolution I may get there. i stands for interlace. S : superresolution? what does e stand for? I read also in the past about vertical and horizontal polarization to be adjusted sometimes. If you have an URL explaining how video option work I may be able to fix it. Thx again.

S : switchres resolution -> 15kHz resolutions we've added to the kernel
e : force connectors to enabled, that's normal vanilla kernel parameter
i : interlace, normal vanilla kernel parameter
If by polarization you mean the H anv V sync polarity, they are all negative in GA.

I wanted to check out model2 but they don't seem to be in the list.
While I'm at it, is there any skin options (or an options menu I'm missing) for the default frontend?

I don't think there is such a filter. I'm no attract mode pro tbh, yo may have better answers on its forum.
Skins are called layouts in Attract Mode, press TAB an check the Displays entry
retrorepair:
Found the filters, they're accessed by pressing F4 and can be enabled/disabled

GAsetup update:
- Added new auto-update options for GroovyMAME, AdvmenuPLUS, etc.
- Added monitor presets in sync with GroovyMAME
- Added new scripts 'Add ROM/Snap paths', to easily configure your emulator's rom/snap paths without editing text files. These scripts will auto-configure AdvmenuPLUS for you.
- Added modified Midnight Commamder (mc) that includes new option (in F2 menu) to set current directory as a rom/snap path for the emulator you choose. This is an alternative to the 'Add ROM/Snap paths' script.
- Added CRT emulation option for LCD screens, based on GLSL filters.

GroovyMAME/UME:
- Updated to SwitchRes patch version 014.
- GroovyMAME v0.148u1.014, compiled with WiiMote support (the XInput patch originally created by SpritesMods.com, which VeS had been including and mantaining in GroovyMAME was finally added to baseline MAME in version 0.147u4, however it needs to be explicitly activated before compiling).
- New folder 'Bios_roms' in /roms, necessary to store GroovyUME bioses.
SwitchRes 1.50-fix:
- Updated (patched actually) to be in sync with new monitor presets and options in GroovyMAME (SwitchRes patch 014).
- Now ini files are read from inisw, this is to avoid conflicts with ini files read by GroovyMAME/UME.
AdvmenuPLUS:
- Added AdvmenuPLUS v2.6 and new layouts.
- Compiled for generic hardware to avoid segmentation faults.
- Updated configuration for various emulators.
Mednafen
- Added Mednafen 0.9.28-1 multi-system emulator, as an alternative to GroovyUME, due to its easy integration with the SwitchRes launcher to allow native video modes.
- Most special keys have been removed, joysticks are configured from f3 to f6.
Misc:
- Added links on LXDE desktop for Wah!Cade and Rejoystick.
- Added web browser.
- All users setup files cleaned and revised.
- Updated fstab, now it mounts non-Linux partitions, internal clean-up.

- Modified 'event' executable to print Wiimote events so they can be recognized and added to xorg.conf (still manual).
- New xorg.conf setup, now hexadecimal PCI identifiers are converted to decimal.

I installed the 2020 version on my vertical monitor setup. When I boot up Groovy Arcade the splash screen is sideways. Is there any way to turn or remove the pulsating splash screen?
Thanks,

Hey all,
In substrings fork, is there a way to set multiple monitor types? Let it pick from PAL, NTSC, Arcade_15 etc automatically?
I have a SCART TV that can accept all of these inputs, Arcade_15 is perfect for arcade games but trying to run PAL PSX via groovymame is either very slow or very fast, I have to set the screen type to PAL before launching my PAL games then set it back to Arcade_15 before playing other platforms.
Thanks.
