Top and Bottom of Display Screen Cut off after update
  • Captain_Wag
    Hey Everybody -

    I finally updated after over a year. When I did it cut off the very top and very bottom of the screen...which is very annoying! Any known fixes for that? Thanks.

    On a tv? On a monitor?
    you can try these options in config.txt :

    overscan_scale=1

    overscan_left=0
    overscan_right=0
    overscan_top=20
    overscan_bottom=20

    A monitor. I'll give that a try. Thanks for the quick response! I'll let you know if it works.

    No luck. It changed the top menu - where you select the emulator - but the MAME4ALL games still are cut off. Any other suggestions?

    Ok. After a year of having the top and bottom of my screen cut off (can't see scores and other pertinent info!) I'm going crazy! I tried the overscan config.txt but it didn't change anything in my mame4all arcade games. Anybody else out there want to give it a try? Pretty please?

    what is your setup like? hdmi? any converters or anything?
  • Captain_Wag
    Yes, it's through the HDMI. So no converters. Thanks.

    I have the same problem, latest piplay on Pi 2.
    advmame seems ok, but mame4all games are cut off top and bottom of screen.
    Using HDMI to Samsung smart tv.

    I will try the config.txt options and let you know if it works.
