PeculiarSatyr Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 So I've got a PC with an HDMI out to a secondary monitor (Plasma TV) and cannot get any emulators to display full screen on the TV.....Anyone know what the problem may be? Was hoping to get a couple USB controllers to be able to play NES/SNES/Genesis/2600/etc/etc on my 60 inch plasma...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMaddog Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Emulators are always going to have a 4:3 screen ratio. Your only choices are stretch the screen on the TV or use screen overlays which MAME supports... I recommend video options that make the games look like they're running on a CRT screen to look more authentic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osgeld Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) use VGA, tv should stretch the analog signal I had a similar problem with hdmi scaling down to my tv's native resolution (its a smaller 720P screen) so it looked like ass, use vga now its per pixel perfect, and I can actually read whats on the screen Edited November 8, 2015 by Osgeld Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Many sets have 4:3 or 16:9 or 16:10 manual settings which work on both analog and digital inputs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+xucaen Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Try pressing ALT-Enter, I got my Atari800WinPlus to go full screen like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Experiment with windows desktop res. set to TV native resolution, then play with emulator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
