Hi
I've just been reading the Ultimarc website where it says about the ArcadeVGA, "TRY CLASSIC GAMES IN THEIR NATIVE RESOLUTIONS ON A PC SVGA MONITOR IN WINDOWS!"
I was under the impression the only way you can get native resolutions is by outputting at 15kHz, ideally to an arcade monitor, then second best is to television via SCART RGB, then component , then s-video etc etc.
So, am I understanding the Ultimarc website correctly? Is the ArcadeVGA able to output native arcade resolutions to a 31kHz PC monitor?
And, if it can, is this something it does only in Windows, or can the same be done in DOS?
After looking at various front ends, I'm still loving none as much as my old DOS advmenu/advmame that I used to run in my cab. The ArcadeVGA would seem ideal for a new build if I could connect it to a 15kHz screen (arcade monitor or tv).
But, since everyone likes keeping their options open, if I could run DOS advmenu/advmame, using an ArcadeVGA card, outputting native resolutions, to either a 15kHz monitor OR a 31kHz monitor, then that would be awesome (since I have a spare 19" CRT at home which could be put in a cab).
So, can the ArcadeVGA output native res in DOS to a 31kHz PC monitor? I think I may have gone wrong somewhere, but if it can I'll be buying one!!! (which I may yet do if I locate a cheap enough SCART 51cm TV). Any Aussies know where to score one in Sydney?
