I put together a small script to easily apply overlays here:
https://github.com/biscuits99/rp-video-manager/

Its currently only supporting SNES, and its in beta. Very beta.

Anyone fancy trying it? It WILL overwrite any system specific settings you may have put in place in a retroarch.cfg.

It only supports RetroPie 3 beta 1 and above

This tool will enable this kind of thing:

cool! can this be used on both 720p and 1020p?

[Floob]

#98583

Well, the overlays are designed for 1080p – and the shaders for 720p.
But you could always try the overlays on a 720p and see if they look weird?

ok, floob, I’ve just installed v0.4. is there any way to convert the 1080p bits to 720p before i run it?

[Floob]

#99236

Hmm, you’re probably better of waiting for the next version that has a few 720p overlays already there.

You would need to delete the old rp-video-manager directory first.

Thanks for the add Floob, if there are request for systems to be added please let me know here: https://github.com/israelperez/retro-gaming/issues

Also Floob the 2 TV sets 1980s and 1990s are for all systems that were from those eras. is it possible to reuse the same overlay and code or is it easier/better for me to separate them out into their individual systems?

[Floob]

#110195

Will do – thanks chito.

The generic TV sets have been added to the systems listed here:
https://github.com/israelperez/retro-gaming/blob/master/bevels-overlays/1920×1080/README.md

e.g. the 90s one states SNES and MD, so I added them there. Other users overlays have different viewport sizes for those 2, but I dont see an issue with how yours is, it doenst make that much difference.

So just shout if you want the same spec added to other systems.

#110213

i only added settings for the systems i was familiar with. but the the tv sets were created so that they could be used with any 4:3 home console that used a tv broken up into their appropriate decades. ive had a look and found the following:

1980s tv set
————-
Atari 2600
Intellivision
Nintendo
sg-1000
Master system
TurboGrafx/PC engine
Atari 5200
VideoPac/Odyssey 2

1990s tv set
————-
genesis/megadrive (even though an 80s system)
Super Nintendo
sega cd
sega 32x
playstation
Nintendo 64
C64 Direct-to-TV
3do
Atari 7800
Atari Jaguar
Neogeo (console setting)
sega saturn
Dreamcast

please let me know if ive missed any or got any wrong. ill also update my readme file

hi floob, can this v1.0 be used to apply scaliness to non libretro systems?

[Floob]

#122331

Nope – I havent written anything yet for non-retroarch configs.

[InsecureSpike]

#122339

but could it be possible?

[Floob]

#122381

It would basically be amending the specific config file, which would mean overwriting existing settings – so most likely to be easier done on a manual basis.
