[resolved] Lay file code to fill only the black bars
#295710 - 09/14/12 06:41 AM Attachment: untitled.png 1217 KB (1 downloads)


Hi Guys,

Trying to make a bezel image to fill the black bars in the attached image.

my res is 1920 x 1080

looks like 240 px width for the black
which makes the play area 1440 x 1080

Cheers
V
Was saving the image as interlaced and it didn't like it one bit

I got the same issue you did, which told me there's something wrong with how the file was being saved.

Opened it up in Photoshop, went to re-save it, and when the interlace option came up, "interlaced" was checked. I forget why, but this is bad for MAME. Change it to none, and it works just fine.

Whatever program you are using to create your images, make sure to turn interlacing off.
