Desktop resolution help
« on: March 03, 2019, 04:40:40 am »
Hi all,

I have most things working now on my machines....however I noticed that my desktop is running at 640x480p etc...and should be at 640x480i.

When I load up Arcade OSD 640x480i isn't listed....how do I change this to add this resolution.

I have a Trisync monitor in a Blast city....and in VMM Maker / windows the monitor is listed as Arcade 15_25_31.

In windows @list all modes the 30hz interlace versions isn't listed either.

What am I doing wrong?

Sorry for the ask
Sean

If you select a tri-sync preset (arcade_15_25_31), 640x480 is created as progressive at 31 kHz, benefiting from your monitor's high resolution range. That is expected.

If you only want 15 kHz modes, use a 15 kHz-only preset (arcade_15).
