This 10-bit YC<sub>B</sub>C<sub>R</sub> 4:2:2 capture device is most representative of what you might see on a digital television. <br /> As chroma is shifted right on YP<sub>B</sub>P<sub>R</sub> in/out, this was corrected in post-processing. Video and S-Video in/out suffer from internal interference.

=== Can I play [[wikipedia:Game Boy Advance Video|Game Boy Advance Video]]? ===
  
−
Yes. You can do so by disabling Game Boy Player enhancements (<code>--no-enhance</code>), or holding a direction while the Game Boy Player logo is visible.
+
Yes. You can do so by disabling [[#--no-enhance|Game Boy Player enhancements]] (<code>--no-enhance</code>, or "Rumble: No" in Swiss), or holding a direction while the Game Boy Player logo is visible.
 +
 
 +
=== What is the default video output? ===
 +
 
 +
* Interlaced Scan Mode: 1× in 4:3 720×240p59.8261 (reported by GCVideo-DVI as 704x240p60)
 +
* Progressive Scan Mode: 2× in 4:3 720×480p59.7276 (reported by GCVideo-DVI as 704x480p60)
 +
 
 +
=== Why am I seeing a double split image? ===
 +
 
 +
Either progressive scan mode is enabled or, if using GCVideo-DVI, line doubling is by default.
 +
 
 +
If line doubling is at fault, the picture may also be scrolling with a slant.
 +
 
 +
=== Why is my AV to HDMI converter cycling through video standards? ===
 +
 
 +
It's confused by the [[wikipedia:PAL#Multisystem PAL support and "PAL 60"|PAL-60]] composite video signal being output by your PAL console.
 +
 
 +
As a workaround, you can set 50Hz Mode (<code>--format=pal</code>, or "Video Format: PAL" in Swiss). This has no effect on the game speed, but will appear stuttery.
 +
 
 +
=== Why is the picture blown out on my PAL console? ===
 +
 
 +
This is the result of using a cable intended for a NTSC console, typically aftermarket, on a PAL console.
 +
 
 +
Back when the AV Multi Out was first introduced, the PAL region had some passive components moved out of the system and into the cable.
 +
 
 +
As a workaround, you can halve [[#--vfilter|vertical filter coefficients]] (<code>--vfilter=.5</code>). Using this workaround is not recommended on the long term.
 +
 
 +
=== Why is the input viewer barely visible on my capture? ===
 +
 
 +
If the input viewer has no discernible shape on black or white backgrounds, this is caused by a configuration issue.
 +
 
 +
If you're using analog video, set the video standard as "NTSC_M_J" rather than "NTSC_M" in the filter properties.
 +
 
 +
If you're using digital video, set the color range to full rather than partial. If this doesn't work, in the GCVideo menu under "Other settings", set "RGB Limited Range" to On.
 +
 
 +
=== How do I verify my Game Boy Advance ROM? ===
 +
 
 +

# Remove any accessory from the External Extension Connector.
 +

FAQs

Progressive scan (720x480p)

How do I change Game Paks?

  1. Hold the Reset Button.
  2. Slide the Game Pak Ejector.
  3. Insert a Game Pak into the Game Pak Slot.
  4. Release the Reset Button.

Can I play Game Boy Advance Video?

Yes. You can do so by disabling Game Boy Player enhancements (--no-enhance, or "Rumble: No" in Swiss), or holding a direction while the Game Boy Player logo is visible.

What is the default video output?

  • Interlaced Scan Mode: 1× in 4:3 720×240p59.8261 (reported by GCVideo-DVI as 704x240p60)
  • Progressive Scan Mode: 2× in 4:3 720×480p59.7276 (reported by GCVideo-DVI as 704x480p60)

Why am I seeing a double split image?

Either progressive scan mode is enabled or, if using GCVideo-DVI, line doubling is by default.

If line doubling is at fault, the picture may also be scrolling with a slant.

Why is my AV to HDMI converter cycling through video standards?

It's confused by the PAL-60 composite video signal being output by your PAL console.

As a workaround, you can set 50Hz Mode (--format=pal, or "Video Format: PAL" in Swiss). This has no effect on the game speed, but will appear stuttery.

Why is the picture blown out on my PAL console?

This is the result of using a cable intended for a NTSC console, typically aftermarket, on a PAL console.

Back when the AV Multi Out was first introduced, the PAL region had some passive components moved out of the system and into the cable.

As a workaround, you can halve vertical filter coefficients (--vfilter=.5). Using this workaround is not recommended on the long term.

Why is the input viewer barely visible on my capture?

If the input viewer has no discernible shape on black or white backgrounds, this is caused by a configuration issue.

If you're using analog video, set the video standard as "NTSC_M_J" rather than "NTSC_M" in the filter properties.

If you're using digital video, set the color range to full rather than partial. If this doesn't work, in the GCVideo menu under "Other settings", set "RGB Limited Range" to On.
