Rotate Screen on Pi4

j_infamous

I have the menu back but still 90 degree off.

It must be a limitation of RetroArch's menu drivers.

No one else has complained about it? Seems weird. Maybe they havent gone to the main menu from retroarch.

I guess is not a common configuration and using the RetroArch menu is not something you do each time you run a game, so maybe it's not a game breaker.

Apparently it's a known problem. No solution so far.

Rotate Menu for Vertical Arcade Screens #537

Menu ignores video_rotation configuration #6770

Does the screen rotate for text in cmdline work on the pi3? If u don’t want to use display rotate and do it like the pi 4
Would command be the same with hdmi-a-1?

I have a pie4 and I love the way they have the new format setup for it except for 1 thing, no rotate screen fix for emulationstation. It really kills it for me, since I only have a vertical screen. So I am forced to run my rpie4 as a rpie3 to rotate the screen, and rpie3 is not as friendly to me. I have tried everything to rotate the screen as well to no avail. (Unless it has been fixed since the last post on here that I don't know about). Is there anyway the dev's can address this or why did they give up on it?

@Gryphon No sure what you're talking about - you can rotate the EmulationStation, as stated in the 2nd post of this topic.
