      Hi guys,

      I have been googling this for a couple of hours and editing the following file /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg for the aspect ratio. Even though i have done this all of the games in final burn alpha still shows stretched and very pixelated.

      My question is how do I get the optimal graphic settings for final burn alpha. I am guessing the reason why my graphics look so poorly is because of the aspect ratio. The game is being shown in a widescreen aspect ratio and I am guessing it is stretching the image to do this and thus distorting it.

      Any help would be appreciated.

      Thanks

          I figured it out on my own the issue is for some reason the raspberry pi was using the incorrect hdmi group and mode for my 1080p display. The mode it was using was an aspect ratio of 4:3 and therefore stretched my games to full screen. Thought I would put this here for anyone else having the same issue.

          Here is a link on how to fix the issue i was having.
