Scale them to UI Size???

I think that only works if the emulator support setting his size on the
command line. And I think none of the Emulators does yet!

Every Emulator has is own parameters, but I think the emulators with the
most options are zsnes and snes9x, maybe you are lucky with them...

And even worse, how do I get them to scale to the UI size?  Even if
there were a command line option, is there a way of passing that to the
emulator?  (The modeline hack to create non-overscan modes doesn't work
with DVI.)

You should enter Visual Boy Advance manualy.

You had to use the SVN Version of MythGame to setup your own emulators!

You can't use the 0.18 Version!!!

I just looked at the linked you gave me and it was the same. It doesn't 
really tell us how to add GameBoy. This is what you have there: 

~~~
Now you only had to a a game starter to Mythtv. 

Player Name: GBA
Typ: OTHER
Command: /usr/emulators/gba/bin/VisualBoyAdvance -F -4
Rom Path: /usr/emulators/gba/roms
~~~ 

I might be blind though. I will have to look at mythgame setup again. But 
for sure, I didn't see any VisualBoyAdvance listed. What I remember are 
MAME, Atari and so on. 

Like for the zsnes, it was easy because it was already there. All I had to 
do is modify the correct path for bin and roms. 

Please let me know. 

Thanks again.

 I think all joystick wich work under linux will do the job.
 I have a wireless joypad, but I don't know the manufacuterer at the 
 moment,
 I can look when I'm home from work.
 In the N64 (mupen), SNES (zsnes) and GBA(VirtualBoyAdvance) Emulators 
 you
 can change the buttons, wich are used by the joypad. The other 
 Emulators I
 havn't tried yet.
 You should look that your Joypad has enough buttons (When you for 
 example
 use the n64 emulator you need many...)

 Hi everyone, Thanks for that very awesome howto page. I have a 
 question. I would like to buy a joystick for this type of games and I 
 don't want to buy the wrong one.
 Can you please recommend me a joystick that will be most compatible 
 with those emulators mentioned on the page? Thanks guys!!!

Yes, but this doesn't work in sdl games, because they don't use x events!
