      If I increase the shader's mask brightness to max, it goes away. If I take an internal screenshot, it doesn't show it. The crt-pi vertical version doesn't have this issue. I also tried the same setup on my pc and it's fine too. I don't believe I had this problem from the fkms_pi4 manual install. Maybe it's a mesa driver issue and I should ask again when the new version's integrated into raspbian?
      I have my pi4 set to 1080p via config.txton my 4k tv if it matters. I've also tried retropie in 4k but there is no change.
      I've also redownloaded the shaders from retropie-setup and directly from libretro's github. No change.

      4.5.8 dev image updated script to latest (4.5.9)

      Internal screenshot:

      What it actually looks like. It looks greener in real life:

        Can you try to get a screenshot using raspi2png (here) ? Does it still exhibits the green tint ?

          @mitu No green tint when using this. It matches my first screenshot when using retroarch to take it.

            I don't get the same tint with the shader, are you sure it's not a TV settings (adaptive brightness or something like that) that's producing it ? Try another display (Tv/Monitor) and see if you have the same behaviour.

              @mitu Well crap. It works on my monitor. I haven't messed with my tv's settings but I have updated its firmware lately. I have all that adaptive stuff turned off. I'll take a look. Thanks.

                I reverted to an older fw. All is good. Protip, never buy vizio. They remove features. They removed chroma 4:4:4 in later fw updates and it screwed everything up.
