javispedro: I suspect that with the small output resolution of a lot of old arcade machines, adding a conversion for hardware scaling was a fairly high priority for MAME, but i don't know any details.

I've not seen that before and any answer i'd give at this point would be a complete guess.

2. when playing r-type at first i was getting a jerky 60 / 62 % then after 2 mins of the rom running on demo the keyboard lit up and the rom ran at 97 / 100% speed, even with frame skip set at 0/10 it ran at a lovely smooth 82%.
what do you make of this?
Could it have been the media crawler running in the background? What happens if you run it now?
