    I am no way an expert on this but I remember some earlier posts this year with 4KTV issues and that 30Hz was the problem. Setting it to 60Hz fixed it for other uses. I cannot remember if it was the partial screen issue you are having, but setting 60Hz and see if it changes anything. I notice in @neil9000 image he has 60Hz set. 

    Can not have 60hz with HDR stuck with 30hz. I highly doubt the hz is effecting window size.

    This sounds like a specific monitor resolution issue. In nvidia control panel you can specify different resolutions for different monitors, make sure its set to the correct resolution for the monitor, also if you go to the "adjust desktop size and position" try setting scaling to GPU and check the box to overide the scaling method and see if that helps. I would assume AMD's control panel has similar options but i have no experience with that.

    I got nvidia 1080ti here and my monitor is already set up for HDR 4k its 4k30HZ. Its not issue with my set up as games already work on my tv with my + 3 monitors. Its issue with Big Box.

  3. I have a lot issues with my 4 k tv with bigbox. I am running 4 monitors , 3 1080ps and 1 4k tv. BB works on all 3 1080ps. When it goes to the TV it fills 1/4th of the screen.

  4. Hey I had so many problems with my VM namely nvidia shutting my vm gpu down. That I never got around to making big box work on my windows 10 vm. Though it did have massive lag and did not perform well in this environmen at all. Unraid pretty good but  chaotic when your new. I got my media server all set up. One day I will get the games working.

  5. So I got a unraid server now and I use plex on a windows 10 VM and I would like to push my retro games to it as well. I have a lot trouble running LB or BigBox to start up. My server specs are i7-4790k , 32gb ram , 1050 nvidia gpu. Win 10 vm is on a ssd while programs are on my array. I get LB to load after while BigBox takes a long time to load if it would load. https://gyazo.com/37cc322b2c782664251243caec083223 got this error. Just got it to load gonna be a work in progress to make it stable. But my win 10 vm is pretty fast. Will report back results.

    Does Retroarch crash on its own when run outside of RL and / or LB ?

    Does crash out immediately when loading a game or does it load and play for a while and then crash ?

    Crash on own, the gui does not even load. It's not the OpenGL vs d3d issue either. Something is off with it. Reboot solves makes me lead to think something with ram or something.

  7. This is really weird and I do not understand the issue. It really pertains lately to just Retroarch but Bigbox has happened before. Basically the program crashes and refuses to work till I restart my pc. No other programs on my pc act this way. ra is main offender right now what seems to happen is I run it trough rocket launcher. I hit f1 to go to menu then hit backspace but it won't work. Then I exit out and now RA will crash all the time till a full restart. I moved RA to my ssd still crashed and I even put fresh RA in my ssd still crashes with 0 cfg.

    I believe for MAME you have to change the input method in the mame.ini folder in order to get it to stream. I remember reading that some time ago but don't remember much more about specifics

    Odd thing was I had it set to mameui64 on RL but I guess it was working fine? Should I use mame64 or ui? I think 64 non ui right.

  9. I set up big box to work with RL but when it tries to play mame games it just crashes and mame was working flawlessly through LB. Now I get 101 and problems. Whats really odd is controller stop working when I stream to my tv. As well as my Mame input has Chinese characters on it the joy info.

    If it is set up and working in Launchbox it works in BigBox. There is nothing to set up in BigBox when it comes to the emulators. That is all done in Launchbox. 

    I have an issue with I make RL default but LB acts like RA is a default. I think that happening in big box.

  11. This happens at random but usually when I try to open Bigbox and not from LB.

     

    Big box gives win 10 blue circle swirl.

     

    It then crashes , bigbox process is stuck in task manager. I remove it , from that point on big box repeats this loop of crashing and staying in memory. Only restart will allow it to work.

  12. Get notepad++ find all the xml files with location of all your game Ctrl + f and replace old directory with new directory. In my case, my dir is like this I:\retro\Roms\System

     

    or I:\Retro\Emulators. So mimic your old directory and switch it.

  13. So before I got all in this launchbox stuff, I was into plex and media server stuff. 

    Right now my pc is my plex server I got about 5-6 libraries (tv, anime, movies etc) I got over 10TB of content. I got about nearly 600gb of games retro only. (like 400 on steam).

     

    So my new goal is to build an Unraid server in March with Ryzen cpu 8 cores baby. The neat thing was at the time I was just focused on a NAS server/plex server / automated downloader / Comic/ebook reader.

     

    I came to realize I can in install a Windows 7 VM(10 is garbage past 1609) do a gpu passthrough and I can have a windows 7 anywhere I go. That means I can push all my retro games and launchbox and have Launchbox on demand.

     

    I will post more when I actually build the server. But right now I am aiming for Ryzen 1700x /16gb ram / 40tb space  , Dont know gpu yet.

    yeah that gets the games working, however to setup the pause menu it looks a little daunting, and again they want those manuals named a certain way and located in a certain place.  Hopefully with @Jason Carr integrating LB with RL he can fix that issue with his awesome "ignore whats in ()" matching, or he can add a different function to autorename the media by the title of the rom.

     

    Move manual dir to rocket launcher or vice versa.

  15. In retroarch, I can not use bezels though automatically that is the issue. So I got use mame?

     

    I found nice trick to make bat file for CPS 1 and 2 So life is solved. Issue was my CPS1 and 2 where old from paradise and i got 194 now so just got copy.
