Bezel Module for Stella?

I have been told that there will be an official module supporting bezels for Stella in the near future. That is awesome. Thank you.

However, anybody have a personal module they are using for bezels with Stella that they are using on their own system?

thanks

The current module does not support bezels, but should do soon as Craig said.

So no one answered his post, shame :(

Ron, are your module tinkering days over or will you wait for the official? :)

I will wait. There is something about Stella that doesn't jive well with bezels. I took a crack at it a month or so ago. Miserable Fail. ;)

Thanks,

Ron

Why do you not use Retroarch with the Stella core Craig? I know there are little lag in the sound but with the shaders looks very good.

Saludos!

How do you manage to keep the screen centered? My USA titles get shifted to the right and the Europe titles get shifted to the left. I've been playing with this for hours with no luck.

Do you mind post your Retroarch video settings for the Stella core and you bezel ini settings?

I tried using it but I was having the same issue. Actually, it issue was a bit worse because it would display correctly with NTSC roms but the bezel and emulator window would shrink with PAL games. I'm using the No-Intro rom set. With Retroarch the Bezel and emulator window saty the same size but they shift either to the left or right. I've spent countless hours on this and no real fix so far.

Can you post your stella.ini as well?

I was really commenting that I had one because the posts above said there was no bezel support. However, I am having issues using the built in direct3d/open gl shaders as it kills my fps speeds so may try Retroarch

Don't worry. I got Retroarch working. I guess some games were not made to take advantage of the full screen. Don't think they cared much or had a lot of limitations. There are a lot of North American games that are all over the place as well.

If you have it fully working can you ease our pain and post any custom settings for us?

I didn't manage to fix it. I fixed one set of roms. There are 2 other sets that I can't fix. You can see in these 3 images what the problems are. One is fine (50% of USA games), the other needs to stretch vertically (the other 50% of USA games) and the other (Europe) I have no idea how to fix that because it only takes up a portion of the screen.

If you want these settings I can post them but this is far from ideal.

I had not noticed the bezel error with euro roms, the 2600 is not a system that I use much. I will put my settings and bezel in FTP soon, for now I can't login and don't know why.

Using the Stella Module I get this - Notice the Europe game in the middle - the whole thing shrinks down. No clue how to fix that.

Just wondered if anyone noticed that if I use one of these bezels with RA stella libretro the emulator runs really slowly but if I use one of the default ones or one of my "mame" full HD transparent bezels I have no issue. Both are 1920x1080 32 pngs....

That's because Stella is a fixed resolution bezel. There is some discussion of this over on the HL forums.
