    Todays DOS gaming basics: Aspect ratios!

    Thanks to #DisplacedGamers for doing a video about the examination of the 4:3 aspect ratio of DOS gaming - primarily VGA Mode 13h and 320x200 - why it is not a widescreen aspect ratio despite all of the examples across the web.

    At DOSBox Staging there are big improvements coming regarding aspect ratios!

    - Screenshots will be always aspect ratio corrected by default in the next version.

    - "Pixel Perfect" mode is removed and replaced by 'integer_scaling'

    off: No integer scaling constraint; the aspect ratio correct image fills the viewport (default).

    horizontal: Constrain the horizontal scaling factor to integer values within the viewport.

    vertical: Constrain the vertical scaling factor to integer values within the viewport.

    The most important thing to remember: DOSBox Staging provides an optimal experience out of the box, most of the time!
