I made GBI because I knew of madVR's smooth motion frame rate conversion. I had that feature working long before audio.
And for those that dislike it, there are video modes with a multiple of 59.7276 Hz.
To be fair, with the official GBP software it is plagued by stutter. For the average user that's the experience they get. I've never used GBI, it looks amazing from everything I've seen and I do try to recommend it when I can. I'm going to add visual comparisons to the GBP on the page eventually, but I'm only going to compare against at best the official component cables and not the various HDMI options for the same reason. There's already a few people who are going to do more in-depth comparisons for all the GBA on TV options in video reviews on their youtube channels.

Also, if there's no DAC, a good solution would be to make sure it will output to a Tendak HDMI->RGBHV converter, which are affordable, good quality, are fine with weird refresh rates, and which even pass 240p properly for use with a PVM/BVM.
Sorry, it's going to target exactly 60Hz with the new oscillator. It's not that simple to drive the HDMI output at the GBA speed...whereas its easy to dial up the GBA to exactly 60hz. I don't plan on supporting 240p output or switchable output resolution, just fixed 720p. If you want native GBA speed, just keep the original oscillator on the GBA board..you'll get some screen tearing, but the GBA will run at stock speed.

Will the 240p rgb option be a DAC adapter that plugs in the HDMI version, or a completely different version of the kit (it's own thing plugged in the GBA)?
240p RGB would be an entirely separate board similar to Borti's advanced RGB kit. That's a long way out though.
