This one works (but in 4k). But when i try to do this:

hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=31

or

hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=82

or

hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=16

I have black screen on reboot

Try adding this to your config.txt and reboot

hdmi_max_pixel_freq:0=200000000
hdmi_max_pixel_freq:1=200000000

also note that this option is ignored for pi4

No black screen but still in 4k 30 fps (with group 1 mode 16) and the line you told me to add

pi@retropie:~ $ tvservice -s
state 0xa [HDMI CUSTOM RGB lim 16:9], 3840x2160 @ 30.00Hz, progressive

edit: I have black border arround screen now ans i still have low fps

tvservice -m CEA

I guess you can tell the Pi to ignore the EDID info from the TV. Add these lines (make sure they're not commented):

hdmi_ignore_edid=0xa5000080
hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=16

Ok now black screen again (i see command start line but emustation never show and display black screen). In SSH i have this now:

state 0xa [HDMI CUSTOM RGB lim 16:9], 1920x1080 @ 60.00Hz, progressive

mitu

That't strange. Are you using the image from retropie.org.uk/download ?

LeoXMasa

@mitu

for my install:

I used raspery pi imager (to download the last version)
I'm booting on SSD USB
I've installed safe shutdown script for my nespi case

Actually in my hardware installation i have the R4 connected to my denon amp, connected to my tv. (it work for all my other devices (ps5 switch et PC)

LeoXMasa

@mitu

I have found a way. I # everything, connecte my raspberry to a no-4k port of my amp audio , and now it show

state 0xa [HDMI CUSTOM RGB lim 16:9], 1920x1080 @ 50.00Hz, progressive

It's seems retropie doesn't like my Audio Amp.

i there anyway to remove the border aound ? :)

mitu

@leoxmasa Yes, add disable_overscan=1 to config.txt - see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Overscan/.

@mitu
