[Scummvm-devel] FW: Myst error : coukd not switch to resolution '544'x332'

[Lars Persson]

Hi!
For symbian we are using an alternative SDL port for Symbian which has been adopted to fit ScummVM from day one. :-) So I will look into the Symbian SDL backend and see if we can override SetResolution there instead i.e we can hardcode some specific support. Btw our version of SDL do support 640x360, but not really tested that well, so for touch phone we could set the resolution to 640x360 which matches Myst quite well.
