+
=== Can I play [[wikipedia:Game Boy Advance Video|Game Boy Advance Video]]? ===
 +
 
 +
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? ===
 +
 
 +
==== Original, counterfeit or reproduction cartridge ====
 +
 
 +
# Remove any accessory from the External Extension Connector.
 +
# Hold Start + Select while the Game Boy logo is visible.

Set sound mode. The default is the Sound Mode system setting (mono or stereo).
mono: Mono downmix
stereo: Stereo
Note: GCVideo-Lite has swapped audio channels.
digital
Use PWM decoder.
analog[=<a0:a1:a2:b1:b2>]
Use 2MHz biquad filter (default). Defaults to a second-order low-pass filter with a cut-off of 10kHz and a quality factor of √2 if not specified.
This is used to simulate the RLC circuit on the Game Boy Advance's Headphone Jack, providing a treble boost.
original
Use low-pass filter similar to the Game Boy Player Start-up Disc.
--format=<[ntsc|pal|pal-m|ntsc-50|pal-60|custom|custom-m][,offset=<x:y>][,scaled-size=<WxH>][,size=<WxH>]>

AVE N-DOL can only output CVBS or Y/C as NTSC-J, PAL-M or NTSC-50.
AVE P-DOL can only output CVBS as PAL-B/G/D/K/I or PAL-60.
offset=<x:y>
Set screen position. The default is the Screen Position system setting (-32 to +32).
Note: Odd positions will cause CB to be shifted right and CR to be shifted left with GCVideo-Lite or GCVideo-DVI v2.4c and earlier.
The screen position is shifted left by 4 pixels with GCVideo-DVI v2.4d and earlier.
scaled-size=<WxH>
Set screen size. The default is 704:480 for 60Hz formats and 704:576 for 50Hz formats.
Note: 3 pixels on the right edge of the screen are blanked out with GCVideo-DVI v2.4d-2 and earlier.
size=<WxH>
Set internal resolution (default: 640:480). The maximum is 640:528.
--scan-mode=<[interlace|quasi-interlace|non-interlace|non-progressive|progressive][,clock2x|no-clock2x][,size2x|no-size2x][,strobe|no-strobe]>
Set scan mode. The default is the Progressive Scan Mode system setting (non-interlace or progressive).
interlace: 15kHz interlaced (480i@60Hz; 576i@50Hz)
quasi-interlace: 15kHz segmented frame (480sf@30Hz; 576sf@25Hz)
non-interlace: 15kHz progressive (240p@60Hz; 288p@50Hz), line halving
non-progressive: 31kHz interlaced (960i@60Hz; 1152i@50Hz), line doubling
progressive: 31kHz progressive (480p@60Hz; 576p@50Hz)
clock2x, no-clock2x
Enable 27MHz pixel clock (default: auto). Enabling doubles the refresh rate for interlace scan modes. Disabling halves the refresh rate for progressive scan modes.
This depend on a compatible video encoder or transmitter not mangling its input.
size2x, no-size2x
Enable 2× video oversampling (default: no). Enabling halves the refresh rate.
This depend on a compatible video encoder or transmitter not mangling its input.
strobe, no-strobe
Enable black frame insertion (default: no). Enabling halves the frame rate.
--osd-input[=<x:y>], --no-osd-input
Show input viewer (default: no). Defaults to 0:-64 if not specified.
The position is relative to the center of the Game Boy screen.
  • --osd-input=-96:-64 Show on top left.
  • --osd-input=96:-64 Show on top right.

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.
