        Small update, be sure to delete the old files unless you just like the original versions. There is a dedicated folder for my overlays. For now, installation is still manual, but you only need to place the CRT folder in the overlays folder. The new versions have changed the vertical position of the screen, so you'll need to adjust that to 180 (vs the old 118.)

        The "Pro CRT" overlay has been remade I'm not sure if the "Standard CRT" is gonna come back. It was kind of meh.

          Hi, good work.
          It is possible to make a CRT screen from Philips Cineos Widescreen?

          Here some info about here: https://www.google.com.br/amp/s/www.philips.com.br/c-p/32PW8422_78.amp/cineos-32-polegada-hdtv

            @wmarcio how should that work? Should I keep the current scaling that I'm using now (960x720) and just let the wide screen have pillar box bars?

                Nice work @TreyM !

                It would also be a good idea to post these ln the official libretro forums in the Overlays category here

                Ps. Would it be possible to make a request for overlays without the backgrounds?

                  @Rion I mean I can make them without the backgrounds, but it will probably look odd, since they are real photos that are lit in a certain way.

                  @wmarcio I can't find an image high enough resolution for that particular model to work with. Would this work instead?

                    @TreyM I have one more request if you don't mind.

                    Over at the libretro forums Jubinko created a Overlay effect to mimic the glass on a crt screen.

                    You can see the results here

                    He also created the glass effect as a template in 1080p

                    Would you think about incorporate these in you Overlays?

                      @Rion I'm already doing my own solution to mimic glass, but I'll take a look at his.

                          @Rion I have now changed over to the glass method in the link you provided.

                            Oh wow, these are very well made. Really like the glass effect you used. Always wanted something akin to the Realistic Arcade Bezels but for the home television.

                            sidenote: are you the guy who made the film enb for fallout?

                              @NecroPoster I am indeed. Did the avatar or the name give it away?

                              Edit: On a side note, I was just playing super Mario Kart with the 1084S overlay when suddenly my brain was like... WAIT A MINUTE!

                              Apparently, we had one of these when I was a kid and I played SNES to death on it, and using the overlay jogged my memory from 8 years old. It was such a lovely experience to suddenly remember that.

                                  @TreyM was just modding fallout and your name just seemed familiar :P.

                                  also what's the width and height used in the philips tv?

                                    @NecroPoster Same as the others. It adds a pillar box on the sides like a real widescreen setup properly for 4:3 content should.

                                    @wmarcio yes the files have all been updated on GitHub.
