=Common Stuff=

== XMB settings related with emulators ==

=== PS1 Native resolution ===
Games are always 4:3 with any resolution between 640x480 NTSC / 640x512 PAL (the bios initialisation screen) and lower:
* Horizontal: 256 (rare e.g. Dragon Warrior VII), 320, 368 (occasionally 384 e.g. SF Zero 3 but not X-Men vs SF which was shrunk to 368), 512 or 640
* Vertical: 240 (NTSC), 256 (PAL), 480 (NTSC), 512 (PAL)
Tekken 3 uses a strange pixel area of 368x480. Regardless of the screen area, the aspect ratio is still 4:3 for all PlayStation games.
Very common resolutions : 320x240 for NTSC and 320x256 for PAL.

=== PS2 Native Resolution ===
Video output resolution: variable from 256x224 to 1280x1024 pixels

=== PS/PS2 Upscaling & smoothing ===
Options added to XMB since 1.80++ Both options can be set individually. See the info in the official [http://manuals.playstation.net/document/en/ps3/current/settings/gamesettings.html#2434 user guide] and some [http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/793/793775p1.html samples]

*In [[XMB]] {{icon category settings}} ⇨ '''[Game Settings]''' ⇨ '''[PS/PS2 Upscaler]'''
**'''[Off]''' - Disable upscaled output.
**'''[Normal]''' - Upscale and display at a size that matches the screen size (keep 4:3 aspect ratio)
**'''[Full]''' - Upscale and display at full screen by changing proportions and stretching the image (to widescreen)

*In [[XMB]] {{icon category settings}} ⇨ '''[Game Settings]''' ⇨ '''[PS/PS2 Smoothing]'''
**'''[Off]''' - Disable smoothing
**'''[On]''' - Use smoothing to reduce the roughness of the displayed image (note: when titles that support progression scan have this option turned on, they revert back to 480p with no alterations)
