In Reply to: somebody was looking for TV S-Video screenshots...... posted by OSCAR on 17, 2001 at 6:01 PM:

Are you using advanceMAME/stretchMAME or something to display vertical games like Ms. Pac-Man? I didn't think they would fit horizontally on a TV without 'chopping-out' some detail.

Also, can you use the -vsync switch to get smoothe scrolling? If so, I realize this would only work on 60Hz games, but just wondered.

Thanks again

: I don't remember who was looking for these, but I finally got around to getting some pics of my cab running a 27" Toshiba w/ s-video.

: The lighting varies in some of these because I was messing around with the lighting in the basement trying to get some decent pics. For those of you that have tried, you know how hard it is to get a good picture of a TV screen. It never does it justice...
: I threw in some shots of Ms. Pac-man and Robotron to show the lack of color bleed. Red is typically the most noticable...

: Anyway, here are some pics. If anyone would like some more of a particular MAME game, just let me know.

        Yes, I think Bank Panic is 60Hz anyway, come to think of it. Surprized Moon Patrol works, though. Thanks! (nt) big10p 4/19/2001 (0)
