If you are worried about creating something for the cover disk at a later stage you should have some sort of contact with Sony, and they could either suggest a) they put on such and such a file for you to check for so your routine will still work, or b) suggest making it pal by default. Seeing as you would want it to be on a coverdisk, it doesnt seem like it would be a drag to hardcode a resolution in this event. I would stick with the cd check. I do have a feeling that causes a problem with an Action replay thingy, as from an email from someone else suggests it redirects all cd functions to the ar, so putting in a cd file check could be a bit dodgy to check.
