Shaders and filters can be applied to video games to achieve some kind of visual effect. These can be from attempting to replicate [[Recommended DisplaysDisplay FAQ|aperture grille]] displays, NTSC signals, or something more exotic.
==Emulator support==
.shader removed in future higan releases in favor of Quark shader folders.
.filter works in old [[higan|bsnes]] versions (circa v82v0.82) but not current in current versions of higan.

===NTSC Filters===

These software filters replicate the signals that consoles output to the TV. They vary in quality, with the lowest quality being RF, then composite, then S-Video, and then RGB (SCART) being the highest quality. Many emulators have blargg's NTSC filter libraries<ref name="blargg">http://slack.net/~ant/libs/ntsc.html</ref> built into them. They can also be separately downloaded in filter plugin format.
These replicate the look of a low-resolution LCD common on handhelds. These can range from a simple grid drawn around the pixels to a detailed recreation of each pixel's RGB subpixels. May also include motion blurring to simulate ghosting and washed out color gamuts.
