Solved Incorrect Resolution/Aspect Ratio in Games
-
Hardware: Raspberry Pi Model 3 B+
System: Recalbox Version 7.1.1-ReloadedI just switched over to Recalbox from Retropie and I'm running into an issue where games are not displaying correctly. I'm running a Dell 2007FP monitor at 1600x1200 resolution specifically because it can maintain the proper aspect ratio for most games.
Unfortunately while the main Recalbox screen looks absolutely perfect, when I launch any game on any system, they look blurry, stretched out vertically, and I have black bars on the left and right of the game (despite my monitor being a native 4:3).
Things I've tried:
- pretty much every option under "Game Ratio"
- "Integer Scale (Pixel Perfect)" both on and off
- Overscan on and off
- modifying the recalbox-config and adding both "global.videomode=default" and "global.ratio=4/3"
So far none of these adjustments have resolved the issue. Any other suggestions?

Fixed in discord. The latest line in the list was the right thing to do (global.videomode=default), but it was not in the right file (was in recalbox.conf).
