 Known Bugs:
 
-- Direct3D: fsMaxScale = 1 in fullscreen mode with visible menu results in too small height of the image
+- Direct3D: image is 1x1 pixel larger than it should be
 - Linking: Doesnt work quite right yet.
 - OpenGL: Fragment shaders do not work quite as well as original test build (Mudlord)
 - Audio core: assertation error occurs when disabling GB sound
 - x64: Needs optimizations (x64 native code, whatever)
+- Wrong bit depth image is displayed for some frames when switching from/to Hq3x/4x ASM (most probably causes by 16bit to 32bit hack)
