* **Screen Filter:** apply a filter to make the screen picture resemble the DAC (digital-to-analog converter) output of a real Voodoo card.
* **Render threads:** allows the Voodoo workload to be split into multiple threads. 2 render threads are recommended for host systems with more than two CPU cores.

The BIOS Parameter Block detection may result in incorrect behavior on *raw stream* (non-DOS) floppy disks. Installation floppies for UNIX and Linux are common examples of *raw stream* disks. Disabling the :ref:`Check BPB <settings/floppycdrom:Floppy drives>` option is strongly recommended for accessing these, as the inaccurate BPB detection may result in read errors, data corruption and other issues.
