I was able to fix this issue. I tried a third television that it worked on. I guess retropie didn't like the refresh rate or resolution on my monitor originally? I was able to set the settings via the other TV and now everything works fine on the intended monitor.

@lister-of-smeg said in Buggy settings menu:

"I really dont have time to read that all, sorry."

I'll also add https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/29316/how-can-you-play-with-this-input-lag to his best-of.
