This software is a work in progress. When compared with other ports of the 240p Test Suite, some functionality is missing. There are also Jaguar specific functions that still need to be implemented. Please see the issues section for more details.
A current build for those who just want to try it out is available at https://jagcorner.com/240p-test-suite/ Once we reach a version 1.0, we will do an official release here.
As described on https://github.com/ArtemioUrbina/240pTestSuite
The 240p test suite is a homebrew software suite for video game consoles developed to help in the evaluation of upscalers, upscan converters and line doublers.
It has tests designed with the processing of 240p signals in mind, although when possible it includes other video modes and specific tests for them. These have been tested with video processors on real hardware and a variety of displays, including CRTs and Arcade monitors via RGB.
As a secondary target, the suite aims to provide tools for calibrating colors, black and white levels for specific console outputs and setups.
This is free software, with full source code available under the GPL.

Compiling requires the following tools/libraries:
If you are running a linux environment that has access to the latest Ubuntu repositories, I have a set of bash scripts that automates the setup of a Jaguar devolopment environment on your linux system. See the following for more details: https://github.com/BitJag/ubuntu-rmvlib-install-scripts
Running the 240p Test Suite without crashing on real hardware requires a working ROM file. Currently, if running the program from RAM space by using the .COF file, this works for most tests, but will crash for some tests that need to unpack assets that will exceed the available space in RAM, crashing the program.
A ROM file can be produced by passing the file through Jiffi, or adding a universal cart header to the .BIN file manually or using makefastboot.
Finally, you can run your ROM file by using an emulator, a flash card reader, Skunkboard, or by creating your own physical cartridge. Currently there isn't anyone I'm aware of that is producing carts of the Jaguar 240p Test Suite.
