In windows, sometimes for video testing, I group by engine like for example C:\GAMES\IDT1\QUAKE C:\GAMES\IDT1\HEXEN2 C:\GAMES\IDT1\HL2 C:\GAMES\IDT1\LASER C:\GAMES\IDT3\QUAKE3 C:\GAMES\IDT3\STVEF C:\GAMES\IDT3\COD4 C:\GAMES\UE1\DEUSEX C:\GAMES\UE2\BIOSHOCK C:\GAMES\UE2\DNF

well I meant 720 as in 720x480 since that's what i'm running it at to maximize the TV out capturing (though it's still cropped at edges by 4 pixels or so and theres' also that analog signal 'sharpness' I've ran UT2004 on a Voodoo2 before, it had the same exact artifact seen there around 3:07, it's a …
