Description

For Glide64 plugin, if a I set the filtering option to "nearest", for example, it works while the game is running. But if I exit the core (or RetroArch) and run again (any game), the filtering is not "nearest" anymore even when the core option still appear as "nearest".

I believe the issue is in fact that, by when the core options are applied, the glide video output is not yet initialized so the filtering is not applied correctly.

Research direction

Reproduce the Glide64 filtering behavior by setting the core option to "nearest," exiting, and restarting with any game. Trace when core options are applied relative to Glide64 video-output initialization; done means the saved "nearest" setting is applied after restart rather than only displayed in the options.
