Help with 4K display and displaying PinballX Menu fullscreen


Recommended Posts

Posted

So... I'm feeling kind of silly here thinking this shouldn't be a big deal... but... I just changed the resolution of my display to 3840x2160 and figured it would 'just work' but it isn't. I took a look at my pinballx.ini file and saw that the default values for Monitor=1 was a whole lot less than 1920x1080, but it still worked when I was in 1920x1080, regardless I figured I would update it to be:

WindowWidth=2160
WindowHeight=3840
And that hasn't helped. I must be missing something, but I'm not sure where to look next. ini attached.

PinballX.ini

Log please too. I don't see why it wouldn't work. What exactly happens?

You can also ignore those two settings if running full screen. They are only relevant for windowed mode.

Thanks for the reply Tom. I'll attach the log when I get home from the office. I was hoping I was missing something in my ini or I had buggered it up, I should have still attached the log file.

The behaviour is that the Pinball X menu displays in the top right hand corner of the playfield in what I assume is 1080x1920, as it looks to take up about a 1/4 of the screen. When I launch the games they play fine in 2160x3840.

So, I tried both checking and unchecking the 'Disable display scaling on high DPI settings' for the pinballx shortcut, pinballx.bat and pinballx.exe file, no difference.

I've attached the log file this time and I've also included a screenshot.

It should work so not really sure. I don't have 4k yet so I can't test but it should work. It may be a display numbering issue. I notice from the log it detects 2 display but you also have the DMD enabled. Ive seen a similar issue when PinballX loads at startup on the wrong display.

The only other thing would be check to the sizing options in windows. That's again related to what I first suggested.

Well... I swapped the HDMI cables between the monitors and it is working fine now, apparently the main display wants to be display 1. Moving on to trying to figure out why my f4v files aren't playing on the 4K screen now :)

Edit: And I've installed LAV now and my table videos are back! Awesome! Thanks for the help.
