Just for the record, I've used Hatari to make many Protracker videos

of launching Protracker will work as well.


Hi

In fact, the program keeps the video freq that was used at start under gem (50 or 60 Hz) and try to remove the border in both cases. So, with US TOS if you switch gem to 50 Hz before running protracker, it should work too.

I tested Protracker with US TOS in both 60 and 50 Hz.

It have a slight bug in 60 Hz, some garbage pixels on the lower border line and it also reduces the pattern view to lesser lines than in 50 Hz mode.

Switching to 50 Hz before starting the tracker makes it behave like a euro TOS. It would be nice if Hatari somehow displayed which refreshrate it is currently emulating.


I will try to test it on my french STF in 60 Hz mode to see if border is properly removed on real HW or if it's a bug in Hatari.

Another program with low border in 60 Hz is Neochrome Master (escape key
goes to full image view and have the realtime zoomer in the lower border).

I didn't try it ; does it work with Hatari in 60 Hz ?

Yep it does. Screendump with major gfxpowers:
