      @mitu I started SNES and it started vertically in the center with the horizontal screen and it was also very crushed, then I started ppsspp and it started vertically with vertical screen, do I have to use lr-ppsspp to make it go?

        I don't understand what 'vertically' means in this context - does it obey or not the rotation configuration you've set ?

        then I started ppsspp and it started vertically with vertical screen, do I have to use lr-ppsspp to make it go?

        That's exactly what I said previously.

            Either RetroArch doesn't detect the resolution correctly or there's a scaling issue. Try adding video_fullscreen_x and video_fullscreen_y to your retroarch.cfg and populate it with the correct values for your screen, see if that makes a difference.

              @mitu if I put it this way the game does not change from the previous photo:
              video_windowed_position_height = "480" video_windowed_position_width = "800" video_windowed_position_x = "800" video_windowed_position_y = "480"
              and:
              video_windowed_position_height = "800" video_windowed_position_width = "480" video_windowed_position_x = "800" video_windowed_position_y = "480"
              if i put it like this when i open the raspberry, i only see retropie and no emulator:
              video_windowed_position_height = "480" video_windowed_position_width = "800" video_windowed_position_x = "480" video_windowed_position_y = "800"
              and:
              video_windowed_position_height = "800" video_windowed_position_width = "480" video_windowed_position_x = "480" video_windowed_position_y = "800"

                      Well, you only have 2 choices here - have you tried them both ?

                        @mitu I tried 800 in y, and 480 in x, and on the contrary, one makes me lose the emulators and the other does not change the resolution

                          @xTekFede In this case, you should look in the Settings -> Video -> Scaling and see if changing the parameters there makes a difference.

                            @mitu Thank you thank you, I was going crazy, in the end I had to put the scaling to 1 and put

                            aspect_ratio_index = "1"
                            

                            Thank you very much, From the heart, I LOVE YOU , Thank you very much
                            Just one thing, I put in the cmdline.txt
                            video = HDMI-A-1: 480x800M @ 60rotate = 90
                            with the various settings but it doesn't work

                              You shouldn't have any spaces in the boot parameter

                                          Try turning off 'Integer Scaling' and remove the 'scale factor' so RetroArch scales it to the window height/width.
