Is there any way to get the monitor's refresh rate in hz using SDL? I assumed it would be in SDL_GetVideoInfo() but it's unfortunately I was wrong. I'm using SDL 1.2.

Thanks in advance.

you know you program too much when you start ending sentences with semicolons.

I'm not sure about 1.2 but in version 1.3 you can call:
[source lang="cpp"]SDL_DisplayMode mode;SDL_GetDisplayMode(mode_index, &mode);[/source]
Which will give you the SDL_DisplayMode struct containing format, width, height, refresh rate.
