Widescreen resolution
640x480 only. "widescreen" FMVs: Set DOSBox to fullresolution=desktop. Via the in game settings leave Movies at the default of VGA (most important, Note: original video files are only in VGA, turning on SVGA only affects playback and will not result in a visual improvement on modern PCs) gameflow can stay set to SVGA. Full motion videos will now play in "widescreen". While there are some black borders on the sides of the video, they are reduced by considerable amount from the default settings.
