[Torbjörn Andersson]

Update of /cvsroot/scummvm/web
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv2240

Modified Files:
	faq.php 
Log Message:
Added "Does ScummVM support using MP3/Ogg/FLAC files instead of the
original MIDI music?" since that question seems to come up every month or
two. Usually in connection with the bonus audio tracks included with Sam &
Max, or the MI2 version included with some (all?) versions of the enhanced
version of MI1.

+	No. If all the game does is to play or loop a tune it would be possible, but many of the games do
+	fancy stuff like smooth transitions from one tune to another, or turn individual instruments on and
+	off, etc. There's simply no way ScummVM could take a piece of digital music and emulate that kind
+	of behaviour.<br><br>
+
+	This question usually comes up in connection with Sam & Max Hit the Road (which has a few
+	unusued bonus audio tracks on the CD) and Monkey Island 2 (which is sometimes distributed on
+	the same CD as the version of Monkey Island 1 that uses CD audio). Both of these games do far
+	too much fancy stuff to even consider an idea like this.</p></li>

       	Yes, ScummVM supports several filtered graphic modes such as super2xsai.  See the

       	Yes. You can either start your game using the -f command line parameter, setting 
 	the game to Full Screen in the ScummVM Options dialog, or by using the Alt+Enter key
 	combination in-game to switch between full screen and windowed modes.</p></li>
