Defining custom Picasso96 resolution/mode for uaegfx
Is it possible to define custom screen modes/sizes for the uaegfx card?
I want to define modes with doublescan. I noticed a Doublescan checkbox in Picasso96Mode, but it was only selectable for 320×240 and 640×480 and didn't seem to have any effect anyway. Much Amiga software is designed for use on screens with pixels roughly twice as tall as they are wide; high-res non-interlaced. E.g. Workbench icons, GadTools gadget borders and programs which use Topaz/8 like ReSource. So I'd like to define (for example) a 1024×384 double-scanned mode which WinUAE would display doubled in height to 1024×768 output pixels. |

I managed to do so by creating a custom-res(1920x540) for my gtx570 in the NV-controlpanel under Windows.
After that it was selectable in Screenmode Prefs on the Amiga side. But it was only half the height of the screen so I disabled the aspect corection of the NV-driver and in UAE. Now it looks like FullHD double scan.The same method can be used to force 50Hz modes.... |

I'll think about it, not yet sure how to implement this feature. Won't be in next official version. |

This is not really a "must have" but a way to setup custom screenmodes from within WinUAE should be a longterm goal.That would make things much easier for the casual PC/emu user out there.
