      I'm having some issues with the launch menu, when I press a before launching a game... I get a black screen rather than the menu.

      I'm wondering if theres a setting in the cmdline.txt that I've maybe amended to hide this?

      Pi Model or other hardware: 4
      Power Supply used: official
      RetroPie Version Used 4.6
      Built From: retropie website
      USB Devices connected: none
      Controller used: pse
      Error messages received: none
      Verbose log (if relevant): n/a

      Any help would be appreciated

        What resolution is your TV ? We've had reports where - on 4k displayes - the menus are not displayed correctly.

            Change the default resolution to 1080p, 4k will be too much for the Pi. Add to your config.txt file:

            hdmi_group=1
            hdmi_mode=16
