      More than 1080p will not be necessary for retrogaming 😁

      @KoCinsKy I would ensure that "rewind" is switched off, as this kills the performance on the newer consoles on Recalbox.
      I do not even use it on my PC Recalbox setup.....

      Tips to Fix Images Loading Slowly

      Resize and compress images. If you want to speed up your images, you should always optimize your photos by resizing and compressing them.
      Set image dimensions.
      Serve images optimized for each device.
      Lazy load your images.
      Convert your images to WebP.
      Use a caching plugin.

      Greeting,
      Rachel Gomez

      @asirome when FBNeo is b*mped, some roms maybe modified and the emulator itself runs differently. It may be possible that some games run slowly. Just check ur roms.
      You're using a Pi3b, some games will run faster than others (for ex, CPS3 roms shall run slowly).

      @ivwshane /recalbox/system/recalbox.config

      I personally have it set to 720p, as there is no point in wasting cpu power rendering these games at 1080p, and at 1080p, a lot of shaders will slow the device down, whereas they work fine at 720p

      Also, as per inside that file, you must stop the N64 and Dreamcast rendering at even 720p.

      These lines are there, probably preceded with a ; so they don't take effect. That semi colon must be removed, and the lines need to be:

      system.es.videomode=CEA 4 HDMI
      Thats near the start

      global.videomode=CEA 4 HDMI
      Thats probably around line 300

      n64.videomode=CEA 4 HDMI
      dreamcast.videomode=CEA 4 HDMI

      Those 2 will be around line 400 ish

      O/

      Go in recalbox.conf and disable the manager and the virtualpads.

      We have that by default for the 7.3.

      It will give a new life to your rpi1/0

      @tyrell because 64 bit only. They said it a few posts after this one.

      FIXED!!! thanks to toniosj, see the gitlab link at the beginning of this post.. but essentially it's due to my 4K tv and he had me change some setting in config.txt, so visit the gitlab issue for specifics

      https://gitlab.com/recalbox/recalbox/-/issues/1384#

      Edit your "config.txt" file on /boot folder:
      -If you're using PuTTy use "mount -o remount,rw /boot" commmand.
      -If you're using WinSCP open console (Ctrl + T), enter command "mount -o remount,rw /boot" and click Execute.
      From this file search for hdmi_group and hdmi_mode and set both as following :
      hdmi_group=1
      hdmi_mode=4
      Don't forget to remove '#' char on those lines if present.

      Hello @Bkg2k,
      Not load of the system in background here 😕 . Right now I checked it again several times with same result. As example in the next case, if I set a custom video in folder bootvideos with this configuration in recalbox.conf
      system.splash.length=30
      system.splash.select=custom

      The system is delayed 30 seconds more in startup. The spashscreen with pacman and the load of emulationstation appears after the video is played.

      As another option more:
      If there doesn't seem to be a good solution soon, take into consideration to add optionally the core dosbox-X. It is a more advanced and vitaminate version of dosbox.
