        Please add some info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

        What's your monitor (native) resolution ?

          Im having similar issues but using a Raspberry Pi 4 B on a Sharp Roku TV and Retropie itself is not filling the entire screen! I don’t know the native resolution

              @d33j4y check the above link. But start you're own topic providing info.

              You can get the specs from your TV by looking it up online. Check the model number on the back.
