Sega model 3 #segamodel3 How to use fullscreen on RetroPie
-
Try to use 800x600 and select the same video mode when booting a game that should do the trick for the future.
-
Just tried what you have asked and it just displayed bigger than native resolution but still a small images in the center of the screen.
-
Are you using a TV ?
Looks like your Monitor/TV seems to stick in the default resolution.
Sadly, I don't think I can solve this problem for you. -
Yes, I'm using a TV, and it can display all the resolution from the runcommands but the higher I use the slower it runs... I want to use native SuperModel resolution and stretch it to a fullscreen 4*3.

Sure it will display the resolutions but I doubt that it switches correctly.
Otherwise you would have fullscreen, right.
Indeed it gets sower when using higher resolutions.I want to use native SuperModel resolution and stretch it to a fullscreen 4*3.
Try and use a regular monitor and see if you can accomplish fullscreen with that.
Then you and I know it's due to your TV. -
Ok, I have tried to get the pi connected to my pc monitor, which is a old HP w2558hc with a native resolution of 1920*1200 and so far could not get it working...
Edited the config.txt file...
tried
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=68and
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=69also tried
hdmi_drive=2and also this one
config_hdmi_boost=4I guess I will have to ask for help on this one too...

Is there a specific reason why you are using these extra settings ?
I would have to dig into them in what they do but in my opinion they would not be needed or could even have an opposite effect. -

I would have to test this but I think forcing the resolution means that switching to other resolutions is not possible anymore.
That would explain that you only see a small window. -
Just to make sure I explained myself correctly, the resolution changes for every XINIT setting that I choose. Native looks like this:
XINIT 800x600 looks like this:
XINIT 1024x768 looks like this:
XINIT 1600x900 looks like this:
The XINIT 1920x1080 would fill the screen completely...Funny thing is that the native does not display all the complete image, it's cropped on the top and on the right.
