HELP : New to OpenMenu ...

Hello everyone, finally, as of today, I am the owner of a modded Dreamcast!

The seller installed OpenEmu, but I need some advice:

• I had to connect it using the three colored cables, but the game menu appears blurry, while the games themselves display perfectly. What should I do?

• I can't find the OpenEmu settings menu, the one where you choose between 4:3 or 16:9, change the theme, etc. How do I do it?

• To exit a game and return to the main menu, which buttons do I have to press? Is there a mini guide? I read that you have to hold down Start and simultaneously press the four colored buttons, but nothing happens.

Thanks a lot for your help!

I'm pretty sure you access it through hitting the start button while in open menu.

ABXY+Start (sometimes gotta push multiple times) will get you back to the menu if the game is official (like an original Dreamcast game you woulda bought at a brick and morter store) Not Indie, homebrew or hacks typically.

The "X" button (yellow) gets you to the menu where you can change aspect ratios. Just an FYI, the menu and art typically is a bit blurry. This is a 25 year old game system that only ever displayed in 480p.

If connecting to a modern TV there are much sharper connections with things Like Component cables, HDMI adapters, SCART, etc.
