Any way to pixel adjust MAME game window?

For example if you are running a 320x240 game on a 640x480 display

(small game window on larger display)

can you pixel adjust the position of the game window, or is this position fixed?

It depends on a few things. Monitors themselves usually remember their vertical/horizontal hold for a resolution. So you could try adjusting that.

You could use a bezel to create an imaginary border around the game. But I don't know of any specific way to do it other than that.

Some links to help you...
