Remember Chosen Video Modes #273

Open espiox opened 5 months ago

espiox commented 5 months ago

I tend to curate the video modes a bit for most cores (I don’t need the greyscale options for most cores, for example. Obviously at the moment you can choose video modes in the core details, but then a core update can overwrite your choices. It would be great if Pocket Sync would remember my choices and re-apply after an update.

Yeah, I was wondering about this - my hope was that the core devs would start enabling the video modes that made sense without relying on the updaters doing it for them.

Ideally that’s still my preference (since the video mode selection is within the core’s files) - but I’m not sure about any core dev’s take on it. Could be it just needs someone to go around doing pull requests on the cores adding the video modes.

My issue with that is I think in most scenarios devs will either have no filters or all the filters, whereas I’d rather have more control over the selection.

I saw Pupdate now has an option similar to this, where you can choose the video modes you want per-core and it keeps them even after updates. I hope this is something you can add to Pocket Sync eventually (since I'd rather just use Pocket Sync than have to run both apps).
