HDMI/VGA Scaling and Resolution Questions
Post Body

Wondering what video settings I could use to make the most of the computer cores, specifically ao486, Minimig, x68k, and hopefully at some point the PC98.

Right now I am running the IO Board VGA to a 15KHz CRT for consoles, and the HDMI converted to VGA into a standard 31KHz PC CRT monitor at a desk nearby for computer cores.

I'd like to know what resolution, scaling options, etc. that are recommended to maximize screen size while preserving original aspect ratio as much as possible. I am not sure if this is even possible given a locked output resolution and differing game resolutions.

Up to now I have used 640x480 or 1280x960 with normal or V-integer scaling. I know Integer is ideal but it often means a smaller picture (I wish the MiSTer had the robust scaling options of software emulation).

An option I've considered is to split the analog signal so I have that going to the VGA. It would mean incompatibility with lower resolutions but it could lock onto the higher progressive resolutions used by some games. Or so I think!
