    @JLaury See this post on how to rotate EmulationStation and the console boot screen. Note that the RetroArch's menu doesn't obey the video_rotation parameter.

    Theme is coming along nicely now. I intend to do a series (I got another 4 weeks minimum of furlough) of themes, based on hit SyFy channel TV programmes, starting with Warehouse 13.
    I am doing 1 system at a time and testing it, having different characters and artifacts for the system screen, and basic screen, with a warehouse type tag for each.
    So each one will look a bit like this;

    SYSTEM Screen

    BASIC Screen

    However, I am having issues with the Detailed/Video Screen. I have this so far;

    Detailed screen.jpg

    But what I want, is just to incorporate a screen shot of the scraped game, then a video snap of the game, but I want it so that it is in the "screen" of the following image. I am happy where the gameslist is, as I wanted it in the lid of the farnsworth (fans will know what I mean)also with the positioning of the other Meta data and the console. This is the image.

    Is there anyway of manipulating the scraped image so they appear in the round window. I have tried most things, but don't know how to display only screenshots and videos, and discount the marquees and the boxart. With the one I have I was able to make it fit by making the screen square.

    As always, any help very much appreciated.

    @andrewh I know it is not what you asked for, but I saw a thread some time ago where someone used Attract Mode, as there is apparently a decent vertical theme.

    Sorry, fixed by updating emulationstation.
