|Comments=BIOS: USA 01.60, FPS:60, Played the Greatest Hits release, completed the game without major issues. Maybe I'm lucky, but I did not see any problems with FMVs. The egde of the screen shows only minor glitching with widescreen patches enabled (glitching was much more prominent in 1.6.0).

{{Issue
|IssueName=Grid obscures FMV's
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=1
|Description=A grid appears over videos, obscuring and darkening the image when the resolution is set to anything higher than native.
|Workaround=As of recent v1.5.0 git builds, this is resolved by default as long as "Automatic Gamefixes" is enabled. To enable the fix manually go to Config > Emulation Settings > Game Fixes tab, click "enable manual game fixes" and enable the "Switch to GSdx Software rendering when an FMV plays" fix. Alternatively go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, make sure Renderer is set to "OpenGL (Hardware), click "Enable HW Hacks", go to Configure Hacks, and enable the '''Unscale Point Line''' hack.
