Hi there

Is it possible to offer native scaling in mGBA, like the Dolphin does it for GC and Wii games ?

As the title implies, there's this weird white flickering going on while playing games (tested Mega Man Zero 2, Metroid Fusion, and Pokemon FireRed) on the Ubuntu port. I'm using the latest stable build (0.3.0).

Just found out about this, and I have to say I am quite impressed at how well the performance is on Wii - I honestly thought that VBA GX/VBA Next was as good as it's gonna get.

I understand this emulator is still in its very early stages (which is actually amazing considering how the performance is already better than VBA GX), so I just thought I would suggest some possible features for future releases.

* Brightness Control/Gamma Correction - as we all know, most GBA games were made with very bright colors so that they could be seen on the original unlit GBA. Both the Game Boy Player and the Wii U Virtual Console somewhat compensates for this by darkening the image a little - it would be nice to have that option for this emulator as well

* libwiigui - just for continuity/similarity with other emulators like Snes9xGx and FCEUGx. I can understand if this might not be feasible however if it takes up too much memory and could hinder game performance.

* custom button configurations - self-explanatory (apologies if this has already been implemented)

* custom border support - y'know, like the ones that the GB Player had on the GameCube.

* screen size options - right now it seems to default to 4:3, which is not the GBA aspect ratio (3:2). Also the edges are currently cutoff on CRT's.

* 240p support - for CRT users

* this one is rather ridiculous and I'm not sure if it's even possible, but it would still be cool nonetheless:
GBA-to-GCN adapter support? On the GB Player, you could use an actual GBA as a controller if you had the GBA-to-GCN adapter (you had to turn on the GBA and hold start on it while it's connected to the GCN).

Are you planning on making mGBA emulate the Game Boy line as well? Or are you simply aiming for a near perfect GBA emulator?
Also would it help you if someone compiled a compatibility list and if yes how would you like it organised?

When using the OpenGL video renderer and either 57FPS or 60FPS, the video stutters a lot like it's very frequently skipping frames/displaying frames for too long. I assume this is the program conflicting with the compositor under Windows 10.

The Software Renderer doesn't work, or to be more precise it seems the FPS Target is artificially limited to sub 1FPS? Holding Turbo button increases the frame rate of it to over 1,000FPS. Messing with the Target FPS or Frame Rate setting doesn't affect it.

When running v0.30 after upgrading from 0.20 by deleting everything in only the MGBA folder and then installing MGBA 0.30, the FPS Target seems to be sub 1FPS even though the FPS Target setting is visibly set to 57FPS. Settings, had the Frame Rate set to 0.1FPS for some reason. I assume there is a config file not located in the MGBA folder and the new version probably misread the outdated config file. Setting the Frame Rate to 57FPS fixed the frame rate of the OpenGL video renderer. In this particular isntance, adjusting the Target FPS setting would NOT update the Frame Rate setting until after I manually adjusted the Frame Rate setting my self.

Just curious.

Hello, I'm trying to compile wii port of mGBA in Windows with Devkitpro PPC,
I've added a Makefile to project, here it's the code

Something between the last two nightlies broke graphics when Aero (dwm.exe) is disabled in Windows 8.1 (this removes a frame of display lag). I imagine a similar symptom is seen in Windows 7. I guess it was the removal of double buffering?

I'm curious about this, GBA emulation on Wii has always been a slow mess. I compiled the libretro version on Wii and with the audio disabled it ran incredibly well, way better than VBA Next, however enabling audio made even the simple stuff unusually slow, am I correct in assuming this would cross over into the Wii port or is that just the libretro port still being unfinished?

I tried searching for some info but turned up nothing. Wii is the only platform I have that runs mGBA so far, so I don't know what the actual performance difference between audio vs. no audio is.
