Video recently stretched vertically

Unread post by Jimiga »

Hi!

My MiSTer Minimig core recently developed a strange video issue:

ISSUE:
- Picture is stretched vertically and correct aspect ration can no longer be achieved.
- Previously I'd been using it for many months with perfect results. I didn't change my ini's or configs.

STEPS ATTEMPTED TO RESOLVE:
- Reinstalled .rbf, removing and replacing using update-all script
- Tweaked every video setting under Video & Audio settings
- Tried on two different displays with differing resolutions and ini's
- Toggled on Scandoubler - this DOES fix the aspect ratio - but- not a good solution as it reduces image size and I don't want to use its effects.
- Tested other console and arcade cores which are perfect. Issues unique to my Amiga core.

I have a custom .ini for my 1920x1200 Dell Display, and a couple for my 1080p TV for 60 and 50hz.
The image shows the same issue on both TV's.

ini's and sample images showing my video settings and the corresponding results also in this folder:are here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing

Thanks for your help!

** RESOLVED** Video recently stretched vertically

**RESOLVED**

I still can't work out what caused it, but many restarts and launching C64 core then returning to Minimig with all the same presets, and Boom! Back to perfect image scaling.

I'd still like to learn what may have caused that, but I'm happy to see things back to perfect.

Happy MiSTering everyone! Cheers.
