Centering the WinUAE display for screen capture

Hi guys, I'm hoping to make some videos for Youtube of some of my favourite Amiga games. I've dropped the resolution in WinUAE to increase the image size, and reduced Paula's volume so you can hear the commentary and it all looks and sounds pretty good.

I think my only issue now is centering the screen. By ticking both the horizontal and vertical centering boxes on the display page, I've improved things a lot. But the display is still a little high and I'm losing the very top of it, while there is plenty of black at the bottom. Is there a way to tweak this to perfection?

I assume I could increase the resolution again which would then include the entire display but I really want to reduce the surrounding black areas to a minimum. Thanks for any thoughts.

Lots more information needed.. Is it game specific? Always? Does it appear differently in recorded video vs on screen? And so on..

Is that a certain Angus M who used to be in the PSX Usenet group, might have been the Commodore one?

The man with the Dads Army sir name : )

Hi Toni, thanks for replying. Sorry for my delay, I've had a few dramas going on.

The effect has been on all the games I've tried, (not many) the same on screen and when recorded. I messed about on the Filter page, and put the second of the 4 sliders at a value of -50 which improved things, but I think the aspect ratio may not be quite right. Its perfectly useable, I'm just trying to get it as good as possible.

Well, I'm hanging in there just about. My recollection is that "I'm too old for this sh1t" was a line you used on occasion in between sending me the odd G-Police demo, which is remembered with gratitude. G-Police, kind of like that Amiga game 3D game set in San Francisco with the hover bike things and the controversial interrogations.... I think. Vektor Grafiks?
