      can anyone help me, i have set up shaders and bezels for arcade games and the horizontal games look ok with crt pi shader. but when i setup vertical games with bezel and crt pi vertical , the screen look terrible very blurry with trailers off the bullets etc on 1942 ,gun smoke. can anyone explain what settings i should have to get best picture that is close to a arcade. i am using 1080p tv. i am using Mr H Arias Bezel Pack and have scaled the game screen to fit (i think that the problem,because i did not want boarders)
      thanks for your time

                    i am using a 49 lg 1080p tv ,pi running at 1080p . and using crt-pi_fbalpha_configs_1920x1080 or crt-pi_mame2003_configs_1920x1080 depending with emulator i am using. i trying 1942 rom out using mame 2003. screen looks full width but to length cut of top and bottom. so i need to shrink the the sides down and the height to fit the screen , let alone the bezel.
                    this is my cfg i know it wrong but fits right with bezel but bad picture.
                    thanks (ps i using this directory \RETROPIE\configs\all\retroarch\config\FB Alpha)

                      @juice that is a non-default .cfg with lots of settings that will affect picture/resolution so i don't know what to suggest, really. the cfgs in that thread are for default retropie.

                            where is the config file you posted above from?
