 Go to Tools>Manage>Manage Emulators>MAME and look at the command line there will be a artwork crop section there, delete it and try again.

This worked - that was extremely helpful, thanks!

You have "artwork crop" on for mame. 

That does not seem to be the case. I let LB setup my MAME and I have the following in my MAME.ini file

#
# CORE ARTWORK OPTIONS
#
artwork_crop              0
fallback_artwork          
override_artwork

So crop is set to zero. Anything else I am missing? Thanks for your help.

Hi - my when I play the games the bezel images are truncated. I have my windows screen resolution set to 4k (3840x2160) but the screen is chopping off the image. Am I missing a setting somewhere in LB or MAME where I need to set the resolution correctly?

I attach an image of what I am seeing, and another image of what I think I should be seeing to compare. 

Thanks for the help, and sorry if this is a noob question, but I have not been able to find an answer....

[Period / "." before names on some imported ROMS]

Looks like a MacOS issue.

 

Yes, a Mac was involved in my workflow... I have now 'added files' and not 'added folder' and that seems to work fine and removes the ".".

<shrug> Really odd...

Thanks, super-helpful community!

Iso your actual file is in fact named that way.

That really is weird. I'm not seeing that name in windows explorer. Or if I look in the zipfile. Must have some funky ROMs...

Other question, out of curiosity, why do you KEEP samples?

Yeah, I'm gonna delete them! 

Thanks all

[Period / "." before names on some imported ROMS]

No - if I go into windows explorer the zip file does not have a leading "." and if I open the zip the .sfc file does not have a leading "."

Maybe because there are some Sample ROMs? e.g. I have two versions "Madden NFL 96 (USA)" and "Madden NFL 96 (USA) (Sample)"

Is there a way to force matching for individual titles? I can go back through these odd ones and force a match in the database. 

Thanks for your help.

 

[Period / "." before names on some imported ROMS]

Hi - I've used the ROM import tool to import some SNES ROMs. I scraped the meta data and images with LB and emumovie. Some of the ROMs have been imported with a period / "." before the names. Of about 700 Roms about 20 have this. It looks like it's scraped some metadata for these ROMs but no image etc. See screen image I have attached. For example Super Tennis appears as ". Super Tennis"

• I'm currently running the free version of LB vers 11.6. I love it and if I can get this working I'll upgrade. 
• Windows 10 on a PC

Thanks for any help.
