Hi Taimoor,

currently the only way to disable scaling is modifying the
source code and building your own binaries.

SDL scaling is indeed not useful, uses broken code for
all platforms and scales without reason on Windows host.

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/155925/ is a patch
which disables it.

Stefan
