Description

Description

When using macOS Big Sur the resolution (I'm not sure this is what it is) is only correct when the window is in the size that it opens in.

Expected behavior

I'm expecting the resolution to fit the size of the RetroArch window.

Actual behavior

I can't describe it that well so here's a video that I uploaded to Google Drive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SMhDcFcNT0K23OD4F6blrDtLVa88gthU/view?usp=sharing

Steps to reproduce the bug
  1. Resize the window or press fullscreen
Bisect Results

This only began when I updated to macOS Big Sur. It worked just fine in Catalina.

Research direction
