      @mitu If I start any game it looks like this, I attach a photo, this is an example of gta vice city:

        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

                          video=HDMI-A-1:480x800M@60rotate=90

                              video=HDMI-A-1:480x800M@60,rotate=90

                                @mitu If I put the comma remains vertical, but for a second in the initial load it turns and then returns vertically

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

                                            @mitu I noticed that if I activate Integer Scaling the psp works normally, but the retroarch settings don't work anymore, and if I deactivate Integer Scaling, the settings go but the games are crushed
