Hi,
I have an Arcade Monitor, and have some problems
to setup some resulotions...
Like 400x300,
Do you have any suggestions how to create
own resolutions ???
There are lots of keys to press soo some advices
would be nice...

: I suspect you're knowingly or unknowingly using one of the stretching/smoothing modes. Those functions are great, but eat up CPU time to process the display. Try using modes that do NOT say mixed or fractional, and are at 100% size in the Video menu.
: Personally I created a per-pixel resolution mode for every single possible game resolution in MAME, even allowing for different refresh rates etc. That way I get full speed and perfect displays. I never use mixed or fract modes. Those are really most useful on limited scan rate monitors like typical arcade monitors, where sometimes it's needed to fit larger resolutions into smaller resolutions etc.
