[mythtv-users] snes9x fullscreen on TV? (yet again)

I have seen a few posts about getting snes9x to run fullscreen on a TV 
display, but all the discussions stop short of a solution.

As I understand it, the -fs option tries to make X change resolution to 
something like 320x240, which will never work on a TV.

Xmame is able to go fullscreen if you use xmame.x11, but snes9x only 
supports SDL so it can't use fullscreen.  Does that sound right?

So does everyone settle for the -y option which doubles the size and 
then just play in a window?  I tried -scale but it doesn't work if you 
aren't fullscreen.  Is there a solution, or would snes9x have to be 
patched to support non-SDL modes (probably a HUGE amount of work).
