Hello,

I tried the above and my emulationstation still does not fit the screen. My setup is a little different in that I have a 16:9 HDTV screen rotated to fit in an arcade cabinet. I attached a picture on 9/3.
I originally thought ES was not recognizing the default overscan settings, but I think it is not recognizing my frame_buffer_width/height settings. The rest of the system fits on a 4:3 screen and with the overscan settings. My retropie files seemed to be the latest but I updated them just in case.

Any ideas?

Here is my /boot/config.txt

# uncomment if you get no picture on HDMI for a default “safe” mode
#hdmi_safe=1
display_rotate=3
# uncomment this if your display has a black border of unused pixels visible
# and your display can output without overscan
#disable_overscan=0

# uncomment the following to adjust overscan. Use positive numbers if console
# goes off screen, and negative if there is too much border
#overscan_left=24
#overscan_right=24
overscan_top=50
overscan_bottom=-50
overscan_scale=1
# uncomment to force a console size. By default it will be display’s size minus
# overscan.
framebuffer_width=640
framebuffer_height=480

# uncomment if hdmi display is not detected and composite is being output
#hdmi_force_hotplug=1

# uncomment to force a specific HDMI mode (this will force VGA)
#hdmi_group=1
#hdmi_mode=1

# uncomment to force a HDMI mode rather than DVI. This can make audio work in
# DMT (computer monitor) modes
#hdmi_drive=2

# uncomment to increase signal to HDMI, if you have interference, blanking, or
# no display
#config_hdmi_boost=4

# uncomment for composite PAL
#sdtv_mode=2
