      @alpermis beside what I've told you, you have a common thing with the other guy having the very same problem : your monitor just has DMT modes. That's a good lead

      The log shows

      [       44.50] configgen/videoMode.py(isSupported:68): The resolution for 'CEA 4 HDMI' is not supported by your monitor
      [       44.53] configgen/videoMode.py(autoMode:115): auto mode -> CEA 4 HDMI not supported, fallback to default
      

      @barto28 has the very same problem, but switching to auto mostly resolved the problem but for N64.

        @substring Exactly true. All but N64.

          @alpermis Can you stay on auto mode, launch a N64 game, quit, and make a new support archive please ?

              I changed system.es.videomode=auto -> system.es.videomode=CEA 4 HDMI (as you asked)
              Started a N64 game then I quit the game. Screen resolution turned bad. And here is the archive ;

                Another thing might help; I use hdmi to dvi cable. So monitor is in dvi mode.

                  @alpermis ok, try this fix by running SSH commands:

                  mount -o remount, rw /
                  rm /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/configgen/utils/videoMode.pyc
                  wget -O /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/configgen/utils/videoMode.py https://gitlab.com/recalbox/recalbox-configgen/raw/0769d875ca343ddffd19721e96595e92511470f2/configgen/utils/videoMode.py
                  

                  No need to reboot, just start games from ES including N64
                  tell me if it fixed your problem

                      The same.

                      mount -o remount, rw /

                          @alpermis new fix :

                          mount -o remount, rw /
                          rm /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/configgen/utils/videoMode.pyc

                          the rm could fail, not a problem

                                  Wow thank you. This issue has been resolved. It originated in dreamcast and n64.

                                      I just wonder where's the path of that log file please? I'd like to see what's going on, on my Recalbox. Thanks.

                                          Perhaps I'll sound silly but I disabled Webmanager and that Media Player, for..ermm...saving a bit more RAM. Eh?
                                          Anyway, I'll nano that log file from time to time. Recalbox is a stable thing, I really want to -contrinute- it to be rock-solid!
