Hello,
Just set bezels and it will work

Thanks, it works again - but I have a new problem - I play with the Large screen / small screen setting on a 21:9 monitor and the standard bezel does not fit the image output, it is too small. I've tried various settings, but it always shows the same bezel and with large screen / small screen I can't get the image to fit the bezel either, so the emulator can't be used in Retrobat after update to 6.3.1... Is there no other solution than activating Bezel?

[Edit] Found the solution... my native screen resolution on my monitor is 3440x1440 and i have to set the resolution in the emulator settings to 2560x1440!

Thanks!

The error will be fixed in next release, you will be able to disable bezels without error
