[libretro] Core keeps calling "Environ SET_GEOMETRY" during netplay
RetroArch version - 1.7.5 32-bit on Windows 7 GP-GX Core - 1.7.4 7d0c04c Game Tested - NHL94 (Genesis version)
During netplay, I noticed in the debug window a ton of calls of "[INFO] Environ SET_GEOMETRY". I do not see these when playing the game locally. I am not sure if this is causing any issues during netplay. There are times I see "black frame flashes", though I'm not sure if they are related.
When the game is started, I do see this called a few times, and with responses of "SET_GEOMETRY: 320x224, aspect 1.306." (and then again a few seconds later with a resolution of 256x224). This seems normal. During netplay, there are no responses.
Attached a screenshot of the debug window. This is just a snippet, I usually see a large amount of these over a few minutes.
Does it do it if you enable runahead (or rewind, for that matter)? Netplay and runahead are very similar under the hood, so if it doesn't do it with runahead, we know it's something specific to netplay and not just general savestate spam.
Core options are not synced maybe a different AR option on one side can trigger this

@fr500 can you explain more about “core options are not synced”?
Could it be something like aspect ratio is not the same setting on both sides?
I will test with runahead and rewind too, thanks.
