<snip> Have you tried running that exact command from a shell so you can see what mame reports? Which version of xmame are you running? I'm using xmame.x11 0.95, and the only thing about your command line it didn't like was '-bpp 0' which wasn't a recognised option. -- Ian _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
