My laptop is a widescreen laptop... but don't have anything in widescreen that's not widescreen.... so when playing Amiga games, I have 2 fat black boarders on each side of the monitor.
15", 17"?

But REAL TV scanlines are the best, thats for sure. Or play it on a old 14/15" Amiga or PC Multiscan monitor.

Totally agree

I use scanlines with ALL emulators that I use (if possible)

Well, if I play in orignal size on my monitor or TV, the picture is of cource very small, so I play in double size.... the TV instead dithers it all, maybe stretches it evenly... which sucks.... I want sharp pixels...

But on PC you can just play 320x256 in full screen and it's like on a TV, no?.. but with wayy clearer picture..


Well, well... I'm all for perfection, sharp stuff... no blurry crap .

Winuae and a monitor for teh win!.

I give up, Ironclaw. You don't get the point as it seems. WinUAE in320x256 fullscreen is lightyears beyond the real look, even worser than 720x576 double pixel.

But as i said before: I'm missing the scanlines brightness/intesity slider in Direct Draw mode.
