What is Blitter Library ?

The Blitter Library plugin adds additional video modes to most of the emulators available from this site. The additional modes are as follows:

• Arcade Mode 25% (2x, 3x, 4x, 5x)
• Arcade Mode 50% (2x, 3x, 4x, 5x)
• Arcade Mode 75% (2x, 3x, 4x, 5x)
• Blur (1x, 2x, 3x, 4x)
• Interleaved (1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x)
• Interpolated (1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x)
• Interpolated 25% (1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x)
• Interpolated 50% (1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x)
• Interpolated 75% (1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x)
• RGB Mode (2x, 3x, 4x, 5x)

Filters

The Blitter Library includes a comprehensive system of real time image filters. You can adjust the colour channels independently as well as flip and invert the image in real time.

Full Screen Modes

• RAVE - Uses the RAVE API (only available under MacOS 8/9) to scale the video to full screen rapidly. Uses ATI-specific calls where possible to provide maximum possible speed.
• OpenGL - Uses OpenGL to scale the video to full screen. This works under both Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X.
