sms_ntsc 0.2.3: Sega Master System NTSC Video Filter
|
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
|
This library filters a Sega Master System image to match what a TV would
|
|
show, allowing an authentic image in an emulator. It uses a highly
|
|
optimized algorithm to perform the same signal processing as an NTSC
|
|
decoder in a TV, giving very similar pixel artifacts and color bleeding.
|
|
The usual picture controls can be adjusted: hue, saturation, contrast,
|
|
brightness, and sharpness. Additionally, the amount of NTSC chroma and
|
|
luma artifacts can be reduced, allowing an image that corresponds to
|
|
composite video (artifacts), S-video (color bleeding only), RGB (clean
|
|
pixels), or anywhere inbetween.
|
|
|
|
The output is scaled to the proper horizontal width, leaving it up the
|
|
emulator to simply double the height. Specialized blitters can be easily
|
|
written using a special interface, allowing customization of input and
|
|
output pixel formats, optimization for the host platform, and efficient
|
|
scanline doubling.
|
|
|
|
Blitting a 248x192 source image to a 581x384 pixel 16-bit RGB memory
|
|
buffer at 60 frames per second uses 7% CPU on a 2.0 GHz Athlon 3500+ and
|
|
33% CPU on a 10-year-old 400 MHz G3 PowerMac.

Getting Started
|
|
---------------
|
|
Build a program from demo.c, sms_ntsc.c, and the SDL multimedia library
|
|
(see http://libsdl.org/). Run it with "test.bmp" in the same directory
|
|
and it should show the filtered image. See demo.c for more.
|
|
|
|
See sms_ntsc.txt for documentation and sms_ntsc.h for reference. Post to
|
|
the discussion forum for assistance.
