Black Frame in some images for a while

[wariobar]

Hi, I'm experiencing some black frames in images sometimes when I am moving from one game to anther. Not always happens and right after the images are displayed well as they are. I didn't have this issue with retro mega before.

Thanks a lot!!

interesting, thanks for the report. I suspect it's a problem when it tries to load the image and for some reason fails. When this happens it should remove the black box, shadow, and the cached image that you're seeing when you highlight over a game but it still shows the previous image. Can you do me a favor and zip up your sega-cd media folder and post them here?

Sure thing, here you go! Yes, it does look like cache issue. It happens also with other games from other consoles/folders, in case is needed I can record a video. Thanks!

Great! I'll try it once a have a moment. I'll keep you posted. Thanks a lot!!

awesome, thanks! I updated it so the shadow is generated, instead of a background image, that should get rid of the black border. I also simplified the scaling logic to hopefully solve an issue where the image loads but doesn't display.

It works!! Black frames are gone. I didn't have a lot of time for testing, but so far so good. I didn't see any side efects of this fix.

Thanks a lot! ' Mario

Glad to hear it. I'll close this for now, feel free to reopen it or add a new one if you find anything else. Thanks for testing!
