I thought it was just a one time thing with Miami Vice (2006), but nah I went to watch The Thin Red Line and they zoomed that shit in too. Sad that a bunch of headasses who don’t clearly give the slightest shit about movies run these garbage “streaming services.” Peacock is a free service and they had Miami Vice in the right aspect ratio. I’m on a free trial btw, I would never pay for this shit.
Edit: Holy shit they did Apollo 13 dirty too. Nah I’m done. Hope Starz goes out of business so the better streaming services can get the movies on there
EDIT: Vitor's Super Mario World widescreen patch is available: https://github.com/VitorVilela7/wide-snes#download
This release contains some rushed fixes. Extensive testing would be much appreciated.
I hope to have fixed some of the setting override (BSO) issues on Android. If you are still affected, all settings can now also be set manually in the core options. (BSOs usually contain comments that make finding the settings easy.)
Changelog:
- The libretro core now re-applies setting overrides whenever settings change.
- The setting override to allow widescreen windowing can now be enabled manually in the libretro core as an option.
- The setting overrides for pixel aspect ratio correction and overscan are available again, only for the libretro core.
- There are new setting overrides for the scale as well as for disabling the sprite limit.
- It is now possible to soft-patch with multiple patches. (like in RetroArch, append "1" to extension of second patch, "2" to third, ...)
- The libretro core can now also apply patches in IPS format. (discouraged, (un)headered is a core option)
- Merged rom-size detection fix from upstream. (fixes some Metroid ROM hacks that would not start)
- Removed the dependency libgtksourceview. (from upstream, only affected Linux)
- Added setting override for doubling VRAM size (for widescreen patches and other ROM hacks only, please contact me on Discord for details)

I like many of you was disappointed by the pillarboxed conversations/in game rendered cutscenes. Flawless Widescreens new update includes a plug-in for all 3 games in the trilogy that not only removes the pillarboxing but adds fov sliders for gameplay and cinematics. Not sure who made the plug-in but thank you so much. Now we can all enjoy all 3 games for the first time in ultra-wide glory.
Update 1: for those who have never used flawless widescreen. Here is the link to their page: https://www.flawlesswidescreen.org
- Download and install the program.
- Run it
- Scroll down games list and find Mass Effect Legendary edition. Click the title and it should load the plug-in
- Make any fov adjustments you want and any features you want to use make sure they are checked.
- Launch Mass Effect Legendary Edition and it should work.
Update 2: for those only able to get mass effect 1 working, but not 2 and 3. There may be an issue with the language you play in. If you play in English it works on all 3 games, some people here have reported that French keeps the fix from working in 2 and 3. Unsure if other languages have this same issue.
Update 3: 5-17-21 flawless widescreen update reads that it has fixed the module for foreign languages.
Please excuse the desk clutter and the cabling that needs a bit of TLC, but I thought I would share the setup I have.
2 x 27" 2K 1440p (16:9) Dell monitors flank a Samsung G9 (32:9) providing a screen resolution of 10,240 x 1440.
It is fairly immersive for gaming, and pretty useful for work too.

I know widescreen is the preferred viewing experience but I could have sworn I remember seeing it available at Walmart once in 4:3 (old cube tv).

thanks
I don't know about anyone else, but I use the snap a lot. While it does help if I am only using two applications, I like having more than that when I am multitasking for game development. Manually setting up the windows for more than two Every. Time. is a pain.

Just curious, because if i'm going to rewatch this show, it's going to be in the manner that Mutant Enemy intended, not this HD widescreen garbage that Passion of the Nerd and others have warned people to avoid like the pleague. I know Hulu has the series in SD but its still in widescreen so you still end-up seeing all kinds of shit you're not supposed to see(the blowtorch when Dawn is breathing fire, the crew members on the rooftop fight)so before I commit to buying this box-set I want to be sure what i'm getting myself into.
In anticipation of Vitor Vilela's Super Mario World widescreen patch I have added support for dynamic patches and setting overrides to the libretro core. This means that RetroArch users can now enjoy the same near zero configuration effort previously only available in the standalone version.
Changelog:
- Patches and setting overrides in the same folder and named the same as the ROM are now also found and applied by the libretro core
- The libretro core is now available for iOS, tvOS and arm Macs, thanks to contributions of the libretro team
- The setting override S2 enables widescreen hacks to extend windowing effects into the widescreen areas
- The packaged WIP widescreen hack for Super Metroid by ocesse has been updated, including the aforementioned widescreen windowing among other improvements
- The packaged game fixes are now available as a separate ZIP for Mac and RetroArch users
- Fixed bug 39, eliminating a superfluous columns of background colored pixels on right side of pillarboxed scenes, thanks to JimPancakes' research
- Implemented the fix for bsnes bug 173, which is mostly hypothetical for bsnes-hd as, for unknown reasons, it does not crash
