paul4tune Posted July 29, 2018 Posted July 29, 2018 My question is can i install bezels to games on the Nvidea Shield. thank you
Tribe Fan Posted July 29, 2018 Posted July 29, 2018 Retroarch has bezel support. I believe that’s the only way on the shield.

Honosuseri Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 Nearly missed this! Partly down to idiots spamming the forum but this should really be posted in the Android seciton of the forum. Retroarch and Mame4droid are the only two ways I know of doing it on the STV. For RA you need to put the bezel art in /system/mame/artwork (you'll need to create these subfolders). I don't use bezels personally so haven't tested it but I have it on good authority they do work "There is so much more and beckons me. To look through to these, infinite possibilities..."
thatman84 Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 Moved this over to Android section... Sure you can have bezels as said above your limited to the emulators that support it. I think there is the odd other emu that supports them. Retroarch calls them Overlays and you need a simple cfg file to go with your .png bezel image. Then save the setting on a per core, per content directory or per game basis "manauly".....The bigest pain is changing your video settings so the game screen fits perfect inside your chosen bezel. Also the mame cores support the standard mame setup as mame4droid I guess. You have the artwork folder for mame and "gamename".zip files go in there for game artworks and theres so defaults to be used like horizontal and vertical. The zips have a .lay config files and the images. There are plenty of sets availiable over at the libretro forum and the mame forums.

I know I didn't go into any detail at all as I was away from my PC. There is this Youtube video expanding on the info you provided, which might help the OP out "There is so much more and beckons me.
