I would love to see xBR added to Gens/GS. As of 2013-05-01 the best version appears to me to be the xBR-v3.8c series, although some may prefer the a and b variants as well as perhaps variants without blending (maintaining original game palette). 2x through 5x scalers are available at the github link below, as well as other references.

Kind regards.

More rendering plugins are always a good thing.

If a C/C++ version is available, I can implement that in II 1.0_beta2 (which is planned as the "MDP release"). GL shader plugins are planned for a later release, and I'll have to convert it from Cg to GLSL in order for it to work.
