Video Settings

The video settings pannel allows you to configure the type of monitor to emulate as well as how the monitor is emulated on the PC. You can also change different specifications for the colors. Three checkboxes allow you to stretch horizontally and/or vertically the graphic part of the emulation and to emulate a MSX connected to a TV screen by visualisation of the scanlines.

    

 
     Monitor type Allows you to choose between color, black and white or green monitor.


 
     Monitor emulation Determines how the monitor picture is rendered. The None option gives a raw square pixels. The Scale 2x option gives a smother image. The rest of the options tries to emulate an actual TV monitor with raster effect and the cathode ray.
