In the 80s and 90s, most video game screens had a 4/3 aspect ratio. Nowadays, screens mostly use a 16/9 ratio, which means that they provide extra space on the sides compared to a 4/3 aspect ratio.

Rather than stretching out the 4/3 image to fit into a 16/9 model, you can fill the extra space with a “background” image that provides an even more immersive experience. You can simulate the looks of an old TV set, or even a background that matches the game you are playing.

the DECORATION menu provides you several options for this:

• several AMBIANCE options that simulate an retro TV set or an old arcade alley
• integration with the Bezel Project that provides personalized bezels per gaming system, and for many of them even personalized bezels per game! You can select the systems you want to enable theBezelProject from the menu UPDATES & DOWNLOADS → THE BEZEL PROJECT.
