> When the User changes resolution in EE, it's not applied till EE is restarted. C…urrently it's possible to set the EE resolution and not have it apply and when launching a native resolution it retrieves the new Resolution when going back when quitting the game and going back to EE causing video corruption.
> This makes sure it reverts to the current display and not the future display. If a user wants to say select 720p in EE, but it's currently 1080p they have to restart EE, and switching to and back from Native resolution will work properly.

Sorry I made a PR on my own branch, here is the Emuelec dev branch fix.

See:

> When the User changes resolution… in EE, it's not applied till EE is restarted. Currently it's possible to set the EE resolution and not have it apply and when launching a native resolution it retrieves the new Resolution when playing a game, and going back when quitting the game and going back to EE causing video corruption.
