      Whenever you start up a rom in Retropie you have the option to make setting changes at launch when hitting any button on the controller. Specifically the resolution settings is what my question applies to. I am curious where it stores this setting and how I can see what resolution exactly my roms are starting up at by default and what roms are starting at a custom setting. I can't seem to find where this setting is saved in the config files. Any help would be appreciated.

          runcommand resolution configs are saved to /opt/retropie/configs/all/videomodes.cfg

              Actually sorry, I just went and looked for this file and I don't seem to have it? Is this because there is no existing launch command configs?

                because you haven't set any per emulator/per rom video modes

                  Sorry to be annoying but is there a default for what resolution the emulators display out without anything set?

                      Ahh so it basically adjusts to your TV's resolution. Thanks for the info.
