I should acknowledge the Control Panel is provided for more-user-friendly config editing and that GUI does have a tooltip for the Enumerate checkbox, which I both appreciate.
I just prefer changing resolution & refresh rate ingame for each PC/monitor, and avoiding any confusion with those options being overriden elsewhere.

I'm also using v2.83.2 to be precise.

Why are you using dgvoodoo for a directx game that last I checked has no problems running natively?

Performance and stability primarily, particularly with graphics mods like ScureHD's. Albeit DX9 convertor is 100% more stable at loading certain modded maps, usually when they approach the 4GB RAM mark (even with LAA patch applied).

Portable AA and AF settings secondly (without less-savvy friends having to faff around with Nvidia/AMD driver profiles), which is where the DX9 convertor falls short.

I have an old BF1942 instance, I don't know how it's modded if at all, but I tried it with dgv 2.83 anyway.

The main menu seems to be displayed in 800x600 @60 Hz, but I have the refresh rates in the display options:

I chose 800x600 @72 Hz, and it works accordingly:

(I had to force v-sync in dgVoodoo though, or else the game always ran at constant 100 fps.)

All of this is without enabling 'enumerate refresh rates'. The applications should see the resolution list and refresh rates by the default config in the same way as natively.
"Enumerate refresh rates" is only for forcing a particular refresh rate from dgVoodoo and to see the supported refresh rates in the Cpl.

It's important to note that if you force the resolution through dgVoodoo, or choose 'stretched, keep aspect ratio' as scaling mode (which implicitly forces physical output resolution to the desktop size) then the refresh rates listed to the application are kinda invalid. Say, you select 800x600 @72 Hz in the game options, but you also forces the physical resolution to desktop (e.g. 1280x1024 in my example), then 72Hz is not necessarily supported by your monitor at desktop resolution. So, only the closest refresh rate can be used instead.

Refresh rates are only guaranteed with default settings (scaling mode = unspecified and resolution = unforced, refresh rate = unforced) but the supported display list + refresh rates should always be listed to the application regardless.

That's why I don't understand why you don't have a single one. Don't you force 60 Hz accidentally, with "Enumerate refresh rates" enabled and "resolution = unforced, 60" or sg like that?
