I use a kaico 2 x line doubler with smoothing enabled to get a usable output, then an mclassic in retro mode to bump it up to 1080p with more smoothing, image looks great on modern telly.
@NintendoPete are you using the kaico multi out adapter? Works with n64 and snes as well? Don't think it can be updated. One I'm using is the dedicated gamecube adapter which uses the display port connector. But worth giving kaico a shout you never know.
@NintendoPete you definitly don't have the micro USB port beside the hdmi port on your model? If not I would drop kaico an email they're very good. They will probably do it for you via post. Worth giving them a shout.
I've tested and the issue is gone, can use this till gcvideo creator sorts it out. Patch notes for v3 or higher mostly seem to be related to the gcvideo menu so doesn't seem to impact on performance or quality of any games I've tried so far touch wood.
@NintendoPete I emailed kaico a couple of weeks ago about this issue. They weren't aware of it but tested and confirmed they were experiencing it too. They've reached out to the creator of gcvideo whose confirmed its an issue with version 3.0 or later and he's currently working on a fix. I've asked if its possible to downgrade the firmware to 2.4 which doesn't have this issue so am just waiting on a response.

@NintendoPete glad to hear, can't beat playing on original hardware!

@NintendoPete yeah they're great, I imagine it'll cost a lot less than buying a new one or another device. Glad you got sorted.
