I need help on the Samsung Galaxy S9 +

[DouglasPowers]

How can I make this fullscreen 16:9 on the Galaxy S9 + ? I essentially want no Black Bars on the sides. The official version on the playstore crashes when I load a game so I can't use that version. But the most recent one on the site works just fine but it has no Aspect Ratio options

16:9 on 18.5:9?

What is it, this horrible crap!?

Admittedly I don't know the technical terms of these phones like that.  Im used to 16:9 being FULLSCREEN on most other devices.  I just want FULLSCREEN on this phone for this emulator

between the settings of the phone, there should be a voice that "spreads" the 16: 9 format, in 18.5: 9 format (but I do not recommend it)

Theres a settings section called Fullscreen Apps but it says Dolphin is already set for Fullscreen which it is.  But the game screen itself is not fullscreen

If you're playing a GameCube game that's intentional. Most of those games are not designed for widescreen aspect ratios. If you force stretched it, it would just look skewed. There are game specific hacks to enable the game's renderer to give you a widescreen output but those are specific to each game and you'll have to look to the wiki for those.

Send me in the right direction ?

Your mobile is NOT 16:9. So if the game renders in widescreen, you still get black borders. Blame Samungs for using such an uncommon aspect ratio.

The more friendly answer: What do you expect us to do? Cropping, stretching, or black bars? IMO the last is the best. Please keep in mind that we emulate a game that expect either 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio, not whatever your mobile has.

Why do older android Versions have Aspect Ratio settings for custom Aspect Ratios & this was clearly removed in the newer better versions

[stizzo]

Because the producers decide.

For example, the lousy disgusting 18.5: 9, Google (for his stupid
dualwindows) / Samsung decided.

Non the people.

PS: even the stupidest display notch, people did not decide.
