@mitu Thanks guys - I'll give it whirl

@SuperFromND, thank you for this find!

@buzz I've tried this before, but I've tried again just now, to make sure.

overscan_top=40 overscan_bottom=40 overscan_left=40 overscan_right=40 overscan_scale=0

While this does add the overscan on the console, it also adds it to EmulationStation and RetroArch while emulating.

I can see the font files from my Mac via FTP, and a number of 16x32 fonts seem to be the largest there is. That's fine, I hopefully I can just SSH in for 99% of things.

@Orionsangel said in My Console & Game Themed Bezels for Retroarch:

@duglor Ah yes, many plans. Ah, the to do list. I think I see those.

:D hehe

@Tango Another thing you can do to cleanly shut down your system if it's too stuck to get back to the command line is SSH into your pi and run the command sudo shutdownThere are a lot of apps and programs for SSHing in. One example is JuiceSSH for Android. There are times it can be too frozen to even allow an SSH tunnel, but other times it's the only way to get a clean shut down. Just know that sudo shutdown "schedules" a shutdown a few minutes out, so if you use this method wait a few minutes to see the shut down actually commence.

Sorry, but you're using a 3rd party image bundled with the hardware, which we don't/can't support.
Note that selling RetroPie is against the project's license - https://retropie.org.uk/about/legal/, so you've been scammed, since RetroPie is free/open source software.

@clyde I thought about doing just that but I have exactly enough SD cards right now to run the Pi setups I own so I don't have a spare to test on.

So I agree - the best way is to test it, yes, but the easiest thing to do is ask if anyone has already done it. Avoids the whole "re-inventing(re-testing?) the wheel" thing. I figure if I don't hear from anyone in the next few days I'll attempt it on my next day off and report back. :)

@Clyde I kinda wanna keep it for myself :D ...gonna have to build another one

@dizunuvezu You're welcome, I'm happy it as helpful for you!

It's private. Thanks for asking btw :) Hopefully when it's FINSIHED (still testing, making tweeks, etc), I'll upload it. It's for now, just a RPI 3B attached to a Official 7" Screen. You could probably imagine it :)

@quicksilver Oh wow. Thank you! I wasn't sure what to search for but this fixed my problem. Specifically this post: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/21568/dialog-boxes-contain-x-s-and-q-s-instead-of-shading/40

@Darkrx8 So the socket was something like so:

URBEST Inlet Module Plug 5A Fuse Switch Male Power Socket 10A 250V 3 Pin IEC320 C14 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ME5YAPK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_gpZcCbSJSXWX8

Also, how exactly did you do up the wiring to the power strip in order for the built in button to be a master switch?

@meleu @cyperghost The export did the trick. It works now and doesn't break the other menu controls. 😄 Thank you for all the effort and explanations. I learned a lot today, as may others who stumble upon this thread, too.

I edited my opening post to a mere reference to @meleu's solution. 😌
