Have you ever noticed, that Eric Schwartz animations using Movieplayer
and the system alerts cannot make use of the VGA screenmodes, even if
you use a screenmode promotion utility ?
So on monitors like the 1942 and the M1438 there will be ugly black
spaces between the lines and on VGA monitors you will only see a big
mess.

PromoteView forces all programs using your preferred screenmode,
if they use the View functions of graphics.library. This is the case
for intuition screens, for alerts and for most animation players, but
usually games and demos will hit the hardware directly and therefore
will not work.
