Fullscreen 720x480?

LocalH · 05 October 2004, 21:10

I would like to request one more feature - currently, 720x480 is not exposed in the fullscreen drop-down. However, as one can set windowed mode to 720x480, you can easily see that the emulated Amiga fits within this almost perfectly, centered and all (with h/v centering turned off, of course). Since many modern TV-out chipsets support such a resolution (for example, nVidia chips support 720x480 and 768x576), it would make gaming/demowatching much better with TV-out support at 720x480. How hard would it be to have WinUAE expose these two resolutions (I'm most interested in 720x480 but I don't see why 768x576, or any other resolutions intended for TV-out, couldn't be added as well)?

Hm, i can choose 720x480 and 720x576 in the dropdown list. I think you just need to add those as custom resolutions in the nvidia driver.

And thus again I am reminded why XP's support of resolutions lower than 800x600 sucks ass. Last time I ran WinUAE, it went from 640x480 to 800x600. Now I open it up and there they are. Sorry about this, lock pls?
