Need help: full-windowed speed

First of all, excuse my bad English - I'm German, but I do my
best to express myself understandably. I try to bring WinUAE on my Smart TV (49'') as a screen, with the aim
of playing my childhood games in large format (3480x2160). The
problem with that is that although I managed to project the games
on the whole screen, they are now very slow. The sound hooks, the
charging process takes a long time, everything seems very
time-delayed. Is that a known quirk because I'm just using too
much resolution for the old games, or am I able to experiment
with the settings a bit? I would be very grateful for your help.

Heya John,

Welcome to EAB

...a very quick post from me as I'm currently in the middle of a project.

Anyway, no need to set crazy resolutions. Here's "Another World" displayed on my 40" TV; resolution in WinUAE is set as 640x480:

That looks good. I'll have a try :-)

Good luck with your project and thank you for your message!

Post the WinUAE configuration you're using and log output (run WinUAE with -log argument). It may be that you're trying to use DirectDraw mode which can run slowly.

Hardware specs, please. Does both PC and TV support 50Hz/60Hz at 4k resolutions? Max 30Hz (or ~24Hz) would not work very well and would most likely cause bad side-effects.

I don't recommend resolutions that are not 100% native panel integer divisible, like 640x480 because TVs generally don't scale PC-only resolutions very well and when letting GPU do the scaling, you at least have some control of the result. (via UAE filter or GPU control panel)

Doesn't work for me either. Same problem as before.

Is there an easy way, to post everything needed? Or do I have to post absolute everything I configurated?

Ok, I tried - it worked - but how do I save the output (Windows 10)?

Hardware specs, please.
PC: Gigabyte Brix s 7100
Intel Core i3 - 2,4GHz
Graphic: Intel HD Graphics 620 (4k-able)
SSD: 128GB ADATA
RAM: SO DDR4 4GB PC 2133

TV: Panasonic TX-49EXW583 LED TV

I hope I thought of everything. Thank you very much for your help!

Include winuaebootlog.txt first (it is always created in same directory as winuae.exe unless you have set custom paths, check paths panel)

winuaelog.txt is created if misc panel create log is ticked.

Mmmh, I'm not sure if the bootlog contains everything. Looks very marginal.

Strangely truncated winuaebootlog.txt..

winuaelog.txt shows that you need to install this: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/down...s.aspx?id=8109 (DX9 has never been Windows built-in. Or try latest beta that uses D3D11 which is Windows built-in)
