According to the AdvanceMenu documentation...
"5.2 Video Configuration Options
5.2.1 device_video_*
All the `device_video_*' options defined in the `advv.txt' file can be
used.
If you are using the `sdl' video driver you don't need to set these
options. "
I am using the SDL video driver so I shouldn't have to set video modes
right?
Secondly, as far as I can tell, I don't have any video modes defined in
my advmame.rc yet it works fine in fullscreen mode. I am including the
contents of both of my config files in the hopes that someone can tell
me what's wrong/missing. As for now I have device_sdl_fullscreen set to
no as setting it to yes produces the no video modes error.

Subject: Re: [advancemame-users] CAN run Advmame in fullscreen mode
using SDL, but CANNOT run Advmenu in fullscreen...
Post by AdministratorWhy is it that I can run Advmame in fullscreen but not Advmenu?
When I try to run advmenu it says no video modes. However when I run
admenu in a window and select a game to play, the game lauches in
fullscreen mode just fine...
AdvMenu has its own .rc file - you can take one of the working video
modes
from your advmame.rc and copy it to your advmenu.rc and it should work.
That's how I got the perfect resolution in AdvMenu.
