Nevermind I figured it out. Here is a link to the config parameters to alter with their descriptions and defaults. https://mednafen.github.io/documentation/ss.html I changed ss.stretch parameter to aspect from aspect_mult2. This makes the display as large as possible while maintaining the aspect ratio. Good to go, time to play.

Hello. I setup Sega Saturn today using Mednafen through LaunchBox. It works great except I can't get it to display in fullscreen It even shrinks a little when I hit alt enter to enter fullscreen mode. I notice that with Retroarch it is a little bit bigger, but the video on Shining Force III is jerky in Retroarch, it is smooth in Mednafen. Does anyone know how to rectify this small display to something larger in full screen mode? Much appreciate it!

Thank you and thank God hehe!

I'm trying to get hocx64 up and running in Launchbox but the games won't launch. I think I needed to unzip each individual .zip file but didn't. I'm wondering if I can delete the .zips and reimport the .tap files while keeping the metadata that took all day to download. Is this possible or will I have to scrape all that data again? Thanks for any help!

Nevermind! I found if I hit Control-A to select all, right click, and edit, a bulk edit wizard is available! Awesome product!

So I've been running emulators forever, but fell out of the scene for probably the last decade, we wound up with many old consoles and games so I just used to real thing. I was stoked when emulation came back on my radar at the advances that have been made in the front ends and groupings and streamlining and metadata etc. I found Launchbox and am blown away. It's like a living encyclopedia museum of video game history. Anyway, I set it up and it looked like Retroarch was the way to go, so I set it up with Retroarch. I started populating with snes roms. I used the core "snes9x current". Everything lagged like crazy. I was surprised because I was able to run snes roms over a decade ago seemlessly on inferior hard ware. I couldn't readily see how to apply a new core to all the snes roms so I deleted everything and started over. This time I directly downloaded the current version of snes9x and just used it instead of RetroArch and everything worked perfectly, which was awesome. However, it seems like I really should use RetroArch for all types of reasons, mostly being everyone else seems to and everything is in one place in your emulators folder. I know think maybe I should have just applied a different version of snes9x and checked if it was better. I see some people saying the 2005 version works good. I guess my question is how do you apply a new emulator choice to the whole batch of a given systems roms? Maybe just delete all the current ones and re-import? Thank you for the help. I am running a Gateway laptop, older i3, windows 10 64bit, 4gb ram. Not the best system but the direct current version of snes9x works great. ==Porky
