I'll likely try to make a scriptmodule for building this soon.

I modified the M.A.M.E. code in order to use high definition artwork. My format is .lyt and basically you have to insert artwork image with .png format in artwork folder with the same name of the romset (i.e. for Final Fight "ffight.png") and a text file with the same name and .lyt extension with a simple code like this inside:

Width="4000" Height="3743"
HoleWidth="2920" HoleHeight="2190"
HoleX="540" HoleY="822"

From a packaging/scriptmodule perspective, this doesn't change anything for me, but that's really cool.

The current SDL Image library available on Raspbian is an old version that use an old libpng version with a bug. In order to use HD artwork you need to compile libpng and SDL Image from source and in sequence.

So, download these archives, libpng-libpng16.zip and SDL2_image-2.0.5.zip, and copy them in

/home/pi

then run these commands from terminal:

LIBPNG

unzip libpng-libpng16.zip
cd libpng-libpng16/
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

SDL IMAGE

unzip SDL2_image-2.0.5.zip
cd SDL2_image-2.0.5/
mkdir build
cd build
../configure
make -j3
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
