      Hey folks,

      I've got an issue that I had fixed, however I just updated the RetroPie-Setup script today and it seems to have broken something (which seems odd as to why these would be related).

      My RetroPie is hooked up to my 4K LG TV. I have set a video splash screen that is 1080p as my video splash screen. Prior to updating today, the way I had fixed the resolution was to go to raspi-config and force display mode CEA 16. Everything was working fine and the video displayed in the correct resolution.

      However, after the update today, it's too cropped/zoomed in on the video. I have tried forcing CEA 16 again, however this did not resolve the issue. I also tried adding --aspect-mode fill and --aspect-mode stretch to the omxplayer line in asplashscreen.sh (I was pretty sure this wouldn't solve it, but I tried anyway); however the issue persists.

      Before update:

      After update:

      Emulationstation Version: 2.9.6RP
      Built From: Pre made SD image on RetroPie website
      RetroPie Version Used: 4.7.12
      RetroPie Image Filename: retropie-buster-4.7.1-rpi4_400.img.gz

      Thanks in advance!

        Can you post your /boot/config.txt file ? Surround the text with code tags (three backticks - ```) so it's more readable.

            Try to enable back overscan_scale.

              @mitu Sorry for the late reply. I messed around with my TV screen settings and fixed it that way. Thank you again for your support!
