everytime i try to fullscreen vba-m onto my second monitor which happens to be a tv it goes black and white different resolutions dont cuase just this particular one at 32bit color resolution is 720x480 and its annoying its not just the emulator thats black and white its the whole screen meaning if i puit something else over there its in black and white. i just updated my graphic drivers so i know thats not a problem direct x says i have the latest one so i cant update that vi websetup but i may be able to if i download the novmember issue of direct x anything else i could try to get this working correctly? its the d3d 9 apit hats cuasing this

720 is an abnormal horizontal resolution..... maybe the tv doesn't support it.

i know the tv support's it just fine cuase i always use it for watching movies and everything else in widescreen. its just this thats cuasing it to change to black and white its just fine when the emulator isnt running in fullscreen on it

Very interesting issue... it may be driver related however, to do with signal encoding. its possible that for some reason its trying to switch to a PAL or NTSC mode not supported by the tv,. I have no way of testing this myself currently, but i'll see if one of the devs can check it out.

Hi,

I'm not sure if it's intended, but I don't find any way to use the second monitor when using fullscreen. Did I miss it ?

Thanks,
