1) In scummvm games, the "." (dot) key is used to skip dialogs you already know. On the PS2 port this key is not available on the joystick, so frequently you have to go through many dialogs that can't be skipped using the TRIANGLE (Esc) button. Since the R2 button is still not used, could you please map it to the dot key?

2) Currently the scummvm seems aways to be using "high resolution" (640x480) on the TV set, since the interlace is on. Since scaler options (scale2x, hq2x) are not available, it would be interesting to have an option to run the low-resolution (320x240) games at low-resolution on TV, by turning the interlace off. The result will be that the hardware scanlines of the CRT TV will appear, improving the image quality. Also, by disabling the interlace there will be no artifacts on scrolling scenes as it happens today.

    Hi sd-snatcher,

    added "." as R2.

    We will work later this year on the redesign of ScummVM / PS2 gfx subsystem.

    We will keep in mind your suggestion to disable interlace as one of the options.

    Progressive will be there too.
