That is taken as given...

However, my monitor can display them correctly as is shown when I click on Test and everything displays correctly in the NVIDIA Control Panel.

OpenGL recognises it as a resolution but DirectX doesn't, therein lies the problem?!

Custom resolution DirectX errors - Vista64

Hello there, This probably isn't a fault of ZSNES but something screwy going on in DirectX. I can add a custom resolution (602x446) in both RivaTuner or via the Nvidia Control Panel, but neither of them show up in my Windows settings and will not work in ZSNES without displaying a DirectX7 Error mes...

Couldn't find that in the GUI but could in the zsnesw.cfg file

Changing:

Keep4_3Ratio=0 (from 1)

had no effect on the borders and they still remain in any scanline mode.

Am I missing something in the options?

wouldn't setting a custom resolution of 1920x1200 give it fine enough resolution to have decent looking scanlines? Unfortunately not. This custom resolution doesn't display scanlines correctly. The only one that does is 640x480. With the ratio being 4:3 then I will have to live with the borders top...

You need to run something that's a factor of 602x446. Thanks for the info. That means I will have to make do without the NTSC filter, which isn't a problem as I can use 50% scanlines (and possibly interpolation). Apologies if I was being vague but not full screen should be read as: Does not fill th...

The NTSC filter wont display the scanlines evenly in DR mode, and the screen is displayed smaller than the DS mode. 640 x 480 DS mode can display the scanlines correctly without the NTSC filter. In both cases the NTSC filter makes the screen much bigger stretching it out and displacing the scanlines...

It is the Samsumg 2493HM Digital with a native resolution of 1920 x 1200. Any ideas? EDIT: 640x480 DS F works with 50% scanlines and interpolation but is not full screen. I...

Please RTFM next time.
This is why I asked the question, unfortunately I have read the manual and I have tried every resolution, be it multiples of 320x240, or not. The scanlines simply do not display with a uniform darkness.

Why?! Does anyone else have this issue?

Thanks

Can someone please explain how to get scanlines working?

Hello there, I am having problems with scanlines in ZSNES. It seems whatever resolution I set the emu to (and then make it fullscreen) the scanlines wont display evenly. Can someone explain in layman's terms just how to activate full screen scalines or ntsc tv mode with all the scanlines ending up t...

Yup thats what the NTSC filter does to my picture.

Consider me one of those people without the required pallet to enjoy this particular filter.

Damn. It seems odd how I get the same problem with different graphics cards and monitors. I must have bad luck with these things.

At least I can look at that screen shot n hope...

Unfortunately Clements those resolutions are prone to the same problem but the resolutions Deathlike2 mentioned work perfectly.

Is there any way to get these resolutions running at full screen?

The NTSC filter makes my monitor's display balls up.

Many thanks

This happens on my sisters' computer too. We both have totally different graphic cards (Geforce 2 MX and on board Intel based). I have tried it with a recent ATI Radeon card and still get the same results.

Please help!

Scanline issues for a complete noob (I've read the FAQ)

After reading the faq I found a question that seemed to fit in with what I am experiencing. My computer wont display scanlines properly at full screen and instead displays them at different intervals and of different thickness and brightness, it looks horrible. The faq however, didnt really say much...
