[REQUEST] GroovyMAME as a Core?

General Development
#1

Is there any chance that GroovyMAME can be added as core in the next release? It’s probably the best version of Mame for user who want to use actual arcade hardware (CRT) and also fixes a lot of problems that the vanilla version of Mame has for normal use as well, such as:

  • Improved video and audio synchronization that achieves truly smooth scrolling, tearing-free video and hiccup-free sound.

  • Automatic generation of custom video timings for CRT monitors.

  • Reduced input latency

#2

None of those would really come through if it were made into a core because RetroArch handles all of the resolution/AV/drivers rather than the cores. That said, RA already has improved sync and latency as compared with regular MAME, and we hope to have an option to run native-res soon.
