Hey guys, I'm hoping someone can help me out. -- I know this is a GroovyMAME forum but you guys are all using CRT_Emudriver so...
I've got an HD4350 (legacy) working .
I'm having an issue with RetroArch where it's displaying stretched, like super resolutions aren't working.

I followed this guide: https://cdcruze.com/2019/03/retroarch-and-crt-emudriver-setup-guide/ , and read a bunch of reddit/forum posts, tried integer scaling on, no dice.
I've attached my config file. Any help is hugely appreciated.
Thanks!

RA.. :laugh2:
Nah, seriously. The best way to configure properly is configure every system with their resolution; and obviously you need installed modelines in your videocard previously.
For example, for bluemsx core i have this config.
crt_switch_resolution_super = "native"
video_aspect_ratio = "8.000000"
video_refresh_rate = "60.00000"
video_rotation = "0"
video_scale = "1.000000"
video_scale_integer = "false"
video_smooth = "false"
video_crop_overscan = "false"
video_threaded = "false"
aspect_ratio_index = "23"
custom_viewport_height = "240"
custom_viewport_width = "272"
custom_viewport_x = "0"
custom_viewport_y = "0"

I HATE retroarch. Seriously. With a passion. But it seemed to have a lot of tutorials for 240p so I went for it.

Another example using 1920 super resolution for Sega Genesis. In this case, i used 1920 for match refresh_rate with modeline, and i reserved 2560 for 60hz.
Another tip is split config files for system: retroarch.exe -L %fullpath%cores\genesis_plus_gx_libretro.dll --config %fullpath%config\retroarchcustom.cfg --appendconfig %fullpath%config\genesis.cfg %1
crt_switch_resolution_super = "1920"
video_aspect_ratio = "8.000000"
video_refresh_rate = "59.922745"
video_rotation = "0"
video_scale = "1.000000"
video_scale_integer = "false"
video_smooth = "false"
video_crop_overscan = "false"
video_threaded = "false"
aspect_ratio_index = "23"
custom_viewport_height = "224"
custom_viewport_width = "1920"
custom_viewport_x = "0"
custom_viewport_y = "0"

You may have solved your problem by now. But I had the same issue until I found a setting for 'Full Panel' in Radeon settings under GPU Scaling. The Preserve Aspect Ratio setting resulted in the squashed image for me.

@mamenewb100, how did you install Radeon Settings for your 5450?
-
I probably wasn't supposed to install any Radeon software? Forgot about that. It was part of the recommend software for the card from ATIs website. I just noticed that the 15Khz resolutions weren't working with the VGA to composite adapter I was using to connect a TV. Just had a scrambled screen. I happened to notice that the scaling option allowed it to work. But it's possible the software could cause conflicts with your drivers?
-
No, I was just curious to see what package you used for this! It's been usually difficult to get the Radeon Settings app to install at all with CRT Emudriver.

I believe it's part of the Catalyst Software Suite but could be Crimson Edition. I used Windows 10 Home 64 Bit Edition. It was installed after Calamity drivers but before VMMaker.
