|  Re: +4 biggest screen resolution
So apparently both Bubis and Bionic implemented my very old idea of switcing to NTSC mid line which speeds up the dot clock and makes the pixels smaller horizontally, increasing the potentially achieavable horizontal resolution.
Vertically you have 312 lines default, you have to keep a couple of lines for the vsync lines but every other line can be used for display. Check out Godzilla it uses exactly such a mode.
But you can increase the vertical frame size from 312 line to whatever you want, but this depends on the flexibility of the monitor or TV set you are watching it on. Some sets let you add an extra 10 lines, then they start rolling, while a 1084S monitor can easily handle around an extra 50-100 lines (don't remember the exact number, it was a long time ago, when I experimented with this.)
You might also try to reduce the number of vsync lines, but that again will depend on how well your set can handle not completely standard video signals.
