As always zx-81 keeps us updated. Good work.

A request: maybe you could incorporate the code dark alex wrote for fullscreen tv out for slims?

I always catch flames whenever I mention it. Even though it would be very important to us with slims.

Thanks alot to those phaggots who flamed me for complimenting takka's tv out tests of gpsp. No offense to exophase but this more important than egotism.

If you used that code in your emu's maybe it would help give this much overlooked code a rebirth.

but you don't have to. just a request.

most psp users have no idea what tv-out-fullscreen means. or a tv out cable looks like.


Fullscreen tv out msx would rule so hard!:thumbup:

peace zx-81

@John Vattic: good idea, but i have not any slim, nor video cable to test with ... and i can't test or release something without this hardware .
