@dankcushions hello, I am aware of how the crt image is generated, I just failed the properly explain the issue. But thanks to you, I revisited the config file once more and realized it was an overscan setting that was preventing the correct size of the image being displayed. Now everything works beautifully. Thanks a bunch.

A simple workaround is to delay the tvservice call in runcommand-onstart.sh , e.g.:

#!/bin/bash echo "starting emulator "$2 >&2 if [ "$2" == 'lr-fceumm' ]; then sleep 5 && tvservice --sdtvon="NTSC 4:3 P" & fi

@chipsnblip This is more than anyone could ask for. On behalf of the retro community and myself.

Thank you!

Thanks guys. I posted on Reddit and they suggested messing with the service menu. And I got it better by modifying the c-trap setting.

i'm the same way, messing with things (and usually breaking them). it's a good way to learn, hands on :)

the only notable difference in our configs is video_threaded = "true", which i have set to false because it tends to cause frame-stutter and some input latency.

keep a close eye on the configs in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/config/<core>, maybe something (core-options) was overriding/conflicting with your retroarch.cfg.
