      @Slythief At this stage, I assume that an image would be helpful as I think different people are reading a different problem from your statements, including yourself. From your last statement, I am assuming this is actually an overscan issue, that you'd adjust on config.txt, setting overscan to 1 and adding overscan to it (negative or positive, depending on what you're observing).

            I hope it arrives quickly.

            I noticed that I was not the only one to have resolution issues but none of the proposed solutions worked.

            Overscan doesn't work either, no matter the value nothing happens.

              I think the overscan settings don't work at all in Bookworm right now.

                Yes that's what I think

                  @Slythief Can you share a screenshot, though? That would be tremendously helpful. Thanks!

                    a TV screenshot to show what's happening?

                      @Slythief Yes. And a copy of your config.txt file while we're at it :)

                          @Slythief Yes, this is overscan related.

                          set

                          disable_overscan=0

                          and then add

                          overscan_left=32
                          overscan_right=32
                          overscan_top=32
                          overscan_bottom=32

                          and see if anything changes.

                              @Slythief Got it. Was reading up on it, seems to be an issue with Bookworm indeed. Sorry about that.

                                Well, is there another solution instead of going with Bookworm?

                                  @Slythief Not on the Pi5, and not that I'm aware of. Unsure if you'd have a better experience installing Ubuntu, but I don't have any experience - nor knowledge - about that to share.

                                    Problem solved:

                                    Add 1080p_audio.bin to usr/lib/firmware.

                                    Add this line to cmdline.txt:

                                    drm.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:1080p_audio.bin video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080M@60D

                                    Now everything works smoothly at 1080p.

                                    1080p_audio.bin:

                                    If you have no sound:

                                    From Emulation Station -> Retropie -> Audio and choose the last option.Reboot.

                                          Probably quite useful in the context of emulation. Even Dolphin's system requirements is only 2GB Ram

                                          Pi 5 4GB

                                            Playable enough with Mame2003 Plus. Here's a video from @Widge playing it
