If all bugs you get are happening with tastudio open, you consider them caused by tastudio?

This was a game I enjoyed very much growing up. I would actually love to see a "full" run of this, which I would define as "until track order loops."
Before I start digging into it from scratch, can you please explain what's going on in the run? And if you can, also address whether the goal used here contradicts fastest completion time, or are they probably equal?

Voting No because it's incredibly boring. And I don't understand the goal.

Arcade games aspect ratio
Every game FinalBurnAlpha emulates is supposed to be displayed on a regular CRT TV:
- 4:3 for horizontally aligned games
- 3:4 for vertically aligned games
For MAME, the latest release of the -rr branch displays the intended aspect ratio in the console window, considering all existing factors (screen orientation, amount of screens, CRT vs. LCD, etc.). Just use that in your encode.
To set custom aspect ratio other than 4:3, edit it in .avs (waspect and haspect variables) and .bat (SAR_w and SAR_h).
Encoding script got some updates, and x264 builds were updated:

so essentially it would be better to send game data directly to the console (possibly through the I/O port, possibly by removing the reader altogether and spoofing read data) and bypass the disc reader?
If it's possible to accomplish, it sounds like a perfect thing to try at the very least. Like, if someone comes up with a more legit way to console verify psx runs, be our guest, but until then, we aren't making it more legit by not running them on the console at all.

Yeah, except some of them are already hosted in a repo. And if we aim for accuracy, we shouldn't leave it scattered throughout the entire nesdev forum, relying on someone not deciding to wipe all his posts for whatever reason.
If you wish I can also go through them in order to probably find some legal notes, and otherwise contact the authors directly. Yet it's a silly reason they've come up with to prevent making it useful for the community.

I'm pretty sure we should host these roms in a repo and give acces to it to those who know what the tests are doing. I'll ask adelikat if it makes sense to host them in the TASVideos organization.
I'll go through the tests and what I used as an expected result for them and provide my thoughts on the readme... in a few days.
And I request people who know 6502 asm to help with this as well. Together we should make a list of the ROMs people should obey :D

Speaking of changes, might I persuade you to make a pull request for this? I found the added tools amazingly useful.
I'll pass.
If you provide the source code for the latest version of your mod, I can merge it myself.
AFAIK it hasn't been hosted anywhere, but the version I linked seems to be the ultimate one, even with some of my additions (that I also did locally). If you merge that, it might make sense to do it in a separate branch. I could compare with my version and also check my edits for bugs.

That's why it's not a requirement. It's a personal taste: when I don't know how something I dislike works, and how to make it do what I like, I go and learn how to control the thing. My intent is to help you learn newer skills, especially when this run is a perfect example of things we need to understand and we don't.
If you have any questions about reversing, I can guide you.

I don't think having someone redo the entire tas is an expandable scenario for console verification. I'd personally prefer modding the console, because that'd at least make it universal for all the runs that have a sync potential. Even though in the eyes of some it won't be as clean as untouched console, there's no way out that's equally reliable and legit (for the purists).

You can try yourself:
http://tasvideos.org/ReverseEngineering.html
It'd be hard first time, but it's worth it, since you'll be able to fully control the game. Relying on trial and error isn't an effective way of tasing anymore.

Woah! How did you speed up the emulation so much?

It's super fast paced, and though the run isn't very short, its gameplay is complex enough to feel fresh throughout the whole movie. But the main feature is these new glitches that look extremely silly and are in fact so powerful.

I'll wait for some reasonable amount of ratings when it's published, but I'd appreciate it if others tell their opinions right away.

I don't think you can export avi from virtualdub using CS gzip. Lagarith works well for that.

Верно, там в первом же видосе сказано почему. Видимо это реально не воспроизведение всех событий, а только имитация того, что можно раздебажить.
