Thanks Bud well problem #3 fixed. I picked up MAMEGUI and now I can play all the Capcom games, I have all .122 Roms and CHD's. Is there a preference amongst people which one is better to use and offers more flexibility and features? Question - Why do I get the Atari list or which ever list is at the bottom of the GameEX pre-default Genres groupings, Example NeoGeo =.001, .002, .003, .004- .122, then Basebal, Basketball..etc? Are these the Mame32 Defaults?

/bkenobi\ Response #2: Well how do I set it up so I do not see Bezels and Artwork, when I launch my games? Of course I wan tmy games to look normal using the screen. Response #3: Well I let GameEX download the Mame32 for me, and I just looked at it, it says File Version 0.109.0.0. Which version is a Vanilla Release? Can I get the version and install it in the same path my Mame32 currently resides? /Brian Hoffman\ Response #3: Well, I'm not sure if I have the wrong version of Mame but I do have all the CHD's and Rooms up till .122 Now about my version of Mame I feel like that's the culprit. Also what's the Screen Capture button on MAME? Looking at it right now, on NEO-GEO's "3 Count Bout", I have the Marqee at the top and the game has black crops on each side? I don't wanna have to adjust this for every game by hitting the TAB button while in the game.

what's going on everyone,? This forum has been great helping me setup my MAME with GameEX so far. Little by little I'm getting all the pieces I need to complete my MAME Cabinet. I appreciate all the the help by some of the Experts on here. I got a "Sony KV-27V22 TV" to go with my PC and MaMe, now I'm in the Tweaking stage. I'm using resolution 640X480 in GameEX which seems to look ok on the TV. I have an "ATI X1600 AIW/Dvi/Vga outputs" attached through S-video. Question 1 - I'm not sure what the maximum resolution or refresh rate is for this TV. I had to use PowerStrip to allow my Video Card to use lower resolutions like 640X480. In the "Windows Display Control Panel", I could only see "Min 800X600" and "max 1024X768" So what should be the best resolution I should set GameEX, to get the best results? Does it depend on the TV? Question 2 - This was nagging me, I got to try out some games and when the Arcade games booted up, Some had the BEZEL around them; Some were in a super small window;, I was able to hit "TAB" and go to the "Video Configs" of the game and change them. -Is this something that is predefined in GameEX or MAme32? Or do I have to change the settings for each individual game? A game like "Jungle Hunt" is a perfect Example. But some other games came out correct. All I want is my games to fit the Screen like the Arcades. Question 3 - Most of my CPS games were not working. I tried playing Marvel Vs Capcom and it loads up the Arcade then keeps changing colors. There was something about contacting Mame net.. -Are my ROMS bad? I cannot play the old Street Fighters? I have third Strike and the Image roms but the game will not work? I have a 2.2 Athlon 64/1GB of ram with XP. Also should I be using MAME32 or something different? Anyhow I'm l earning a lot as I go, as well as with this program, which is great. If anyone can answer some of the the questions or things to try, that would be sweet. Currently At work and can't try anything until 5:30 PM US Eastern Time. I'll check the Post though.

Ok so I used my PC-VGA port on my Samsung instead and it works perfectly, but I had to set GameEX to use 1920X1080 in the configs. Man what a difference HDMI makes in color PQ. Now let me try some games and see how they look. I guess I should of known not many apps can handle True HD yet, but the VGA PC connection works. Are they working on it?

hmm Well it must be an HDMI thing. I'll try to force that resolution and see what happens. This should be in a Memo about what inputs GameEX will not tolerate for now.

Hey I would like to run GameEX on my 1080P set. I have a ATI AIW X600 with VGA/DVI outputs. I can connect my computer to my HDTV and get my desktop, but when I load GameEX, I see the "Please Wait" screen of my GameEX theme then my TV says "not supported, but having a dual setup, my computer screen works and launched GameEX display. Any help would be appreciated, is this even possible?

I'am having the same issue with the new Sets I downloaded. The preview Avi's freeze every 3 seconds of play and that is with every video. I've tried different ffdshow but only the main one from GameEX will actually show the video with sound. Others I've tried freezes GameEX. Not sure if it's codecs or the Videos?

Hmm I don't know if I'm having the same issues but I also do have the Avi files for previews and the Video consistanty studders, every 4-5 secs it freezes and continues to play. I tried different ffdshow updates and only the main one on GameEX actually works. I can't stand the studder for every video. Where does GameEX update anyhow? I don't see the setting?
