I've lost the Mame Bezel ( Game name and details etc) from the screensaver and I can't figure out why? I've completely reinstalled mame and gameex recently and it was working fine up untill a week or so ago.

It is definitely selected to show in screensaver options.

Everything else looks fine in the options, can anyone suggest anything else I might be missing.

What should I be seeing in the GameEx folder for the Mame bezel? I couldn't find anything that stood out as the Mame Bezel and I'm almost positive I wouldn't have changed anything but I was sorting out problems before and so it would be nice to be able to check for sure.

Is there anyway to reinstall the latest updates? Was just wanting to try updating to see if it fixed it but I'm already up to date.

Oops I've found out why I lost the Mame Bezel at least, it was adding artwork_crop to the command line options in the gameex settings.

A big part of reinstalling everything was switching from mameui32 to command line mame (which has sorted some of the problems :) ), with UI I always had the artwork cropped (I only have a 19" LCD) and the Mame info bezel always showed ok. Being new to command line mame I just added the artwork_crop command to the options which works for the games but it is also cutting out the mame bezel?

Should I be using the crop command directly through mame and not gameex?

(Edit) Yep creating a mame.ini and changing it there seems to have done the trick. So unless anyone has figured out how to have seperate 'crop' settings for the games and screensaver this thread can be closed.

Sorry for the ramble still getting used to the new mame :)
