16x9 games on 4x3 monitor question
« on: August 30, 2015, 10:37:04 pm »
Hi Guys,

I am building a Hyperspin bar top machine that will be running MAME and several other emulators, including MUGEN and some PC Games. The monitor I wish to use is a HP LP2065 5x4 LCD monitor.

My question is, is there a way to automatically have the monitor display the widescreen games as letterbox, and then return to the native resolution on menu out to Hyperspin? A program or script or something? Scaling? Not too savvy on this. Any help is truly appreciated.

Thanks,
J
