Ha ha... yes yes!
But in my world this is exactly what "correct aspect ratio" means!
It is the original screensize, with no distortions, no filters, no extras.
=D

Best regards, guys!

For this screensize the best method is still to keep using linear filtering and adjusting
the size to any nice value you want. Nothing will be cropped out.

Problem is it will look more blurry that way.

Are there no values for 1x 384x224? Anyone?

1 x 384x224 would be X=0.60000, Y=0.466667

But this is going to be much smaller than your TV screen. If you want to get as close to the look of the real thing as possible then set your values to X=0.93333, Y=0.93333. This should give you a vertical size of 448 and a 4:3 ratio.

it would be different for pal or NTSC id say and also diff for 720p

Pal and PC have diff amount of horizontal lines as does 720p

Hey there!

1. There is no way to play things at 1X on a SDTV. I mean, you can set up the screen in its 1X size, BUT IT WILL BE GARBLED AND USELESS. Too small and with the graphics really bad.

2. There is no way to set up the CPS1 + CPS2 in its REAL 2X SIZE in a 4:3 SDTV, without cropping the sides! There is no way really. It is really impossible.

3. The only way is to GIVE IT UP and adopt the LINEAR FILTERING METHOD, and adjust the size to any horizontally width that looks better on the 4:3 SDTV screen.

Well, I actually meant 768 in width. Damn... this is not good. I wouldn't mind that some games are this wide, but why of all games... does it have to be Final Fight. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grr.gif)

Doesn't that make the picture more blurry?

Linear filtering = Blurry!
So, answering your question, yes.
Good luck!

If you don't like the blurriness of the linear filter then run Final Fight in FBA-XXX Pro with Simple2x filtering and no flicker filter.

Everything looks pretty sharp that way to me.

Thanks, I'll try that as well as the 597x448 size you recommended. Hopefully that'll work better. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Thanks!

MAMEoX (and so I'm guessing CoinOPS too) uses decimal percentage values in its ini file to set the screen size. The X value is a decimalised percentage of 640 and the Y value is a decimalised percentage of 480.

And if the emu was running in 720p, it would be a decimalised percentage of 1280?... or still 640? hmm no, it must be 1280...forget what I just said. :>

Where can I learn more about Coinops? I thought the XBOX wasn't capable of displaying low resolutions 15.60 Khz or by 384x224 you mean doubled to 768 x 448? Sorry for the noobness but I haven't messed around with xbox emulators much.
