this seems to apply to all “non-steam” games and a few steam games launched through steam

in desktop mode if i open an app, the res is set to 1920x800 and it fills the whole screen

if i lqunch the same game from gaming mode, set to the same resolution, i get black bars on top bottom and sides of the game

in game menu says game is still 1920x800

very annoying, any ideas?

fixed, res is always 1920x800 everywhere in games

Do a screenshot with it fullscreen and black bars. Not sure how to do that on a Steam deck

raven night
#

i can take a picture with my phone that would be easier

pine willow
#

No, I want to count the pixels

#

So it has to be a screenshot

raven night
#

sure what do you want the screen shot of, gaming or desktop mode

pine willow
#

Anything that has black bars

#

And isn't the Steeam Deck 1280x800, not 1920x800?

#

idk yeah that one

#

1280x800

#

sorry im proper tired

#

🤦‍♂️

#

all the black bars in the image are visable to me

#

this is whole screen, the grey bars and black bars around that also included

#

however when i launch in desktop mode, all the resolution is fine and there are no grey or black bars

#

Trying to find someone else with the same issue

#

Is it "game mode" or "gaming mode"?

raven night
#

Huh. Both are the same res.

That confuses me

Looks like both 1280x800 but see the extra black bars in the first here just opened in random image resizer app

#

Also I need to go plug my phone in
