overlay displayed properly but game is magnified and mostly off-screen #16

Open DoctorVolt opened 6 years ago

DoctorVolt commented 6 years ago

Installed a new Retropie build on zerow followed by rp-video-manager. Games with overlays, in both fba (lr-alpha) as well as arcade (lr-mame2003), are displaying the overlay properly but only a portion of the game is displayed and overlapping the overlay -- looks like the game is magnified by a factor of 6 or more and most of it displaying off-screen.

Haven't modified the defaults so not sure why I am having such a weird yet consistent experience.

Note: same monitor is used with RetroPie on zero and 2, both with your wonderful overlays, but issue only seen with zero.

Found a workaround: forcing fullscreen with resolution of 1980x1040.

Hypothesis is that RetroPie on the zero defaults to a resolution that is roughly 45% of 1920x1080 as changing the overly insert values to slightly less than half the original values (750 to 333, 50 to 22, etc.) will also provide workaround.

Will continue investigating as time permits.
