Use when working on how games look on a Batocera cabinet: CRT and other shaders, shaderset resolution and per-game shader overrides, bezel/overlay artwork and alignment, generating missing .info sidecars, filtering unusable bezels, pinning the display resolution, or diagnosing moire and cropped/misaligned game viewports inside bezels. Covers why a shaderset seems invalid, why .info top values are not alpha coordinates, and why Mega-Bezel per-game art fails. Not for performance/framerate tuning…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Batocera Display Shaders, bezels, and display mode — everything about how the picture looks. Assumes the connection pattern, `batocera.conf`/configgen model, and verify loop from `batocera-ops`. Because display changes are visual, the `batocera-ops` **remote verify loop** (ES HTTP API launch + `batocera-screenshot`) is your primary tool here: never declare a shader or bezel "working" from the config alone — launch it and look. ## Shaders Shaders are assigned per-system (or per-game) in `batocera.conf`. Two key mechanisms and the traps around each. ### `shaderset` resolves against TWO search paths `<system>.shaderset=<name>` is a **folder-name lookup** resolved against both: 1. `/userdata/shaders/configs/<name>/` (user-installed) 2. `/usr/share/batocera/shaders/configs/<name>/` (system-bundled) Checking only one path is enough to wrongly declare a preset invalid. Some built-in names are aliases that resolve to a preset deep under `/usr/share/batocera/shaders/`. Before concluding a `shaderset` value is dead: ```bash SSHB "find /userdata/shaders /usr/share/batocera/shaders -maxdepth 3 -iname '<name>*'" ``` …

How to install
mdr add t3chnaztea/batocera-skills/batocera-display@sha256:53f77149bde82741The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260704.d32e8c6, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
