Games that are above 320x200 work fine for the most part. They usually run at 640x480. (if that works with your card) A game that is 512x384 fills most of the screen, but not all like it was originally intended. Paperboy looks pretty good at this res. I leaves about a 2 inch border all around the screen. Its not real bad in my opinion.
512x384 is not supported directly. If you HAVE to have that for the smaller number of games that are this res... and you cant live with the picture not filling the screen entirely then you may want to go with a PC monitor. For me, the arcade monitor is just great though.
: I intend to use ArcadeOS as my front end for a MAME cabinet conversion. I notice in the docs that no resolutions above 320x200 (256 cols) are supported ?
: I was kind of hoping to run some of the Atari System 1 games (Sprint, Paperboy etc) which run at resolutions of 512x384. How can I do this ?
