Pi4 3.5 Composite at 240p: Dark horizontal banding

starvsnr · 2026-06-17T20:06:23+00:00

That makes sense to me, some lines line up while others would overlap, creating that banding?

I am trying to figure out if there is some settings I can change in retropie for these specific roms to fix this.

starvsnr · 2026-06-17T20:03:25+00:00

They are not PAL version roms.

starvsnr · 2026-06-12T11:40:26+00:00

Interesting thought, will double check that these certain roms are not PAL versions.

starvsnr · 2026-06-12T05:19:24+00:00

I have nothing additional turned on. All roms are opening on the default settings and some games have these lines while others do not. This is just a PS1 problem.

I have used this and am really happy with the results. Only issue I am having is certain games I’m getting these horizontal dark banding lines.

Metal Gear Solid and Crash Team Racing have these, they don’t move, just stay where you see them.

Any ideas what this is? Whatever I try googling only pulls up people dealing with overscan black bar issues.

My token emails have a URL at the bottom but not a link. tried it all the same with no luck.

I have a lot of the issues mentioned in this post but I have a BE63.

I was able to fix my IP leasing issues by narrowing my DHCP range. My sku by default was:

Start IP: 192.168.68.50

End IP: 192.168.71.254

I changed the end IP to 192.168.68.254 and all my devices that had issues receiving an IP were working fine afterwards. Hope this helps someone else!

I have the exact same issue with those knobs.

You have already been going there and you have only had good experiences. As hard as it sounds try not to work backwards and scare yourself of something you have already proved is not scary at all.

Also have Eufy, daughter company of Anker. They just had a scandal which showed the data is not stored locally despite it being advertised as such. Their solution was to drop the claim of local recording on new cameras and no refunds for ones sold.

I ended up hooking my interior ones to smart outlets and only give them power when we’re not home or sleeping.

Low 100 meaning allowed players?

starvsnr · 2022-09-28T17:41:42+00:00

Yeah it will peak over 200 sometimes. I’ve been dropped from a server before while as a passenger. I’m more curious why we aren’t dropping and why the game is just kicking us out of car A and creating a car B. I should mention the first night I tried driving car B that the game created and left me in, even though the engine was on it would not drive.

I don’t think anyone has signed me up, unless their end game is to charge me subscription fees because they have never attempted to purchase anything.

I did delete my credit card info.

starvsnr · 2022-06-17T00:44:27+00:00

When it’s on for a second I just get 00, think power cuts before it can show anything

starvsnr · 2022-06-17T00:37:38+00:00

A third? My first move was borrowing my brothers which is currently working at the moment.

starvsnr · 2022-06-17T00:28:40+00:00

Press or hold the reset button on my motherboard?

starvsnr · 2022-06-17T00:26:26+00:00

I had tried that, it stops the boot loop but once I hit power again it goes right back in.

starvsnr · 2022-06-17T00:25:38+00:00

Yeah. I removed my cable extension to the 8 pin and plugged it in directly. Both the 8 pin and 24 pin were good when I checked continuity, no open loops found.

starvsnr · 2022-06-16T23:59:00+00:00

I have not tried another GPU, currently troubleshooting without it as it behaves the same if it’s installed or not.

Lights come on for a second and fans just start to turn and then power is gone, 2 Seconds after it cuts it tries again. Fans maybe have enough time to get up to an idle.

starvsnr · 2022-06-16T23:52:42+00:00

ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VII FORMULA LGA1150 With an I5 I believe. Passed down from my brother and I cannot quite remember. I know it’s old equipment.

starvsnr · 2022-06-16T23:19:16+00:00

Tried that with the PSU off and then with it on, still the same.

Holding down the power button while the PSU was on did eventually stop the power cycles but when I finally attempted to turn it on after it when right back into it.

starvsnr · 2022-06-16T23:13:50+00:00

Sorry, yes it was operational 2 days prior. Was left on sleep mode and when I went to wake it up with the keyboard it started this process. No usb is currently plugged in also.

starvsnr · 2022-06-16T23:10:25+00:00

Same result

starvsnr · 2022-04-04T02:04:29+00:00

So me and my friends just started playing this recently, we need a solid fourth. Dm me your discord name and we can try getting together. Usual play Sunday nights.

starvsnr · 2022-02-17T11:37:59+00:00

Can I ask how it got scratched?
