      Hi there, I've been having a recurring issue with retropie, something that had previously forced me to switch OS in the past. I installed RetroPie to my Pi4 and managed to get it mostly working, except emustation was forced into 640x480 despite being on a 1080p TV over HDMI. I went into raspi-config and changed the resolution to somewhere around 1280, and it worked... except now I once again have a black screen after the initial boot, with seemingly no way to fix it. I really need help on this because I don't have any interest in starting the setup process over again

        @KeepItWeird did you try using the other Hdmi port?

          Can you post your config.txt boot configuration ? What version of RetroPie are you using ?
