This is mostly a bug fixing release (more than 2 dozen bugs). New features added:

  • powerpc support for DRC
  • 2x mode in SDL video overlay mode for better color resolution
  • FM support for Master System (YM2413) (thanks to @hiroshica for supplying)

2x mode:
This is only available if "Video Overlay" is available in "Display Options/Video output mode". Video overlays use the YUV 4:2:2 color model, which has a brightness value for every pixel, but reduces the color resolution to one U/V chroma value for every 2 pixels. 2x mode circumvents this by doubling every megadrive pixel to have the complete color information for this pixel in the YUV output. Output scaling halves the width again, which then produces one chroma value per output pixel.

Binaries for gp2x and caanoo (zip), rg350 and gcw-zero (opk, mips32r2), and generic opendingux (opk, mips32r1).
