Re: Mame/RetroArch games problems

Which systems and games are giving you aspect / ratio problems? Sorry, haven't checked this thread in a while. Still having these aspect ratio problems with Mame and Final Burn... I periodically update RetroX and check any of the original street fighters (say, street fighter II championship edition...

Re: Mame/RetroArch games problems

I see!! Yes, you are right, it's because of the square pixels assumption. RetroX uses an older version of RetroArch but I think there is a setting for that. Once I recover (from surgery) I'll check this out. I was just checking back in to see if any progress had been made on this issue. I still hav...

Re: Mame/RetroArch games problems

It's not an error, those games are NOT in the 4:3 aspect ratio, they are more like 15:9 aspect ratio which is very close to 16:9. That's why you won't see a major difference between setting "original aspect ratio" and fullscreen in a 16:9 device. Those games are in 384x224 resolution Whil...

Re: Mame/RetroArch games problems

Using MAME 2014 fixed both problems. Thanks! I guess I spoke too soon. Seems like most of the Capcom games (Street Fighter, Darkstalkers, ect.), plus other games (randomly) are not displaying in their correct aspect ratio. They more or less just stretch to almost the entire 16:9 width of my TV... E...

Re: Mame/RetroArch games problems

I noticed that left analogue trigger on shield brings up a menu and I can tweak the analogue settings from there for some games. Thanks. I will try that tonight. The problem with the aspect ratio that you are having is using the same MAME versions? I remember there was a problem with aspect ratio o...

Mame/RetroArch games problems

I have RetroX installed on my Nvidia Shield TV and I'm having a few problems. I can't get any Mame/RetroArch games to display in the correct aspect ratio. Games like PacMan display as 4:3 (instead of 3:4) on my 16:9 screen. And regular 4:3 games like Street Fighter II display as almost-but-not-quite...
