    can't the normal (low) resolutions just be scaled up 5 times (to 1600x1000) and then displayed with a border instead of scaling up to 1920x1200 and killing 1080p compatibility?

    to be honest i am not really interested in the REAL hires mode anyway, and i really wonder who might use that. i think the normal low res modes are perfectly fine, it should only be possible to display those cleanly on a hires (1080p) display instead of letting the TV upscale that for you (with unpredictable results)...

    I understand that many of the old resolutions are in 16:10, but that's not the point here. I have to be able to use the MEGA65 with a modern TV, and if I am using 320x200 mode, I would expect the MEGA65 to output something that my TV can handle, and I wonder what this would be. There are many possibilities what COULD happen, some of them might include stretching or letterboxing or something. But right now I wonder what ACTUALLY happens when the current MEGA65 tech is connected to a modern TV or other hi-res monitor and a low-res mode like 320x200 is used.

    Hi,

    I have heard the MEGA65 has a maximum resolution of 1920x1200. I understand that it might be necessary to have this 16:10 resolution, but in general, I am not so happy about this, because this means you have to use a special monitor for the MEGA65. With 1920x1080, it would be possible to hook it up basically anywhere. Luckily I have a 1920x1200 monitor, but still, I think it's a bit sad.

    On the other hand, I am not so interested in this high-res mode anyway. So how about the low-res modes? What happens if you use the MEGA65 in plain C64 mode? What resolution will it output? Will it only be possible to use it via HDMI? Or will there also be VGA or Composite out? I am very interested in the MEGA65, but if I can only use it with HDMI on a 1920x1200 monitor, my interest gets a bit narrow, sadly. So it would be nice if you could clarify this a little.
