You can put subtitles at level ends where the NES is calculating how much time you have left.

Thanks for the movie, I really enjoyed it.

ZSNES was once 100% assembly. The new movie code will be C. pagefault also wants to add AVI support, but he only plans on doing the Win32 end for that, porters will have to do the SDL version.

Probably just "different". I'll keep you informed when it's ready for inspection.

You can insert a chapter anywhere, and you can jump to one at will and if wanted, to go back into recording mode.

As requested, I will try attempt to explain chapters. A normal movie is a save state followed by button presses. A chaptered movie on the other hand will have multiple save states in it. Chapters can be inserted at a fixed interval (say every two minutes) or at your choosing. Chapters allow a few things. You will be able to watch a movie, and jump foward or backward in it via the chapters. It also ensures a smoother movie, as desyncing is less likely when states are restored transparently during playback. From any chapter point, you will be able to switch from playback mode to record mode, which will erase everything from the start of that chapter till the end of the movie, and replace with what you currently are doing. Clear?

You can't quicksave in middle of a movie. Our new method has chapter support, which will allow you to rerecord from any chapter point you previously defined. Maybe that's what you mean by quicksave? When you rerecord, everything that previously was after is erased. We'll also be doing it in GPL'd C, so anyone could try improving it.

Would do that if it were possible... Moderation only allows to move complete threads, not partial. Could hack the database directly... hmm.
:P Guess you need to read your phpBB manual. You should have a split this topic appearing in your moderation thingy. If it doesn't appear for you, try this with the appropriate modification:

pagefault and I spoke it over, and we will try to add movie support which I think will blow away anything you've seen in any emulator. We will have a feature which will protect against bad movies, missusing a ZMV, chapter support, and hotkeys. Of course rerecording will be in there :) What do you mean by quicksaves affecting a movie?

Pagefault said he'll try to add keyboard support. For rerecording, he said we'll have to redesign the movie format. I'll see what I can do.

I'll talk it over with pagefault. Keyboard shortcuts shouldn't be a problem. Adding rerecord... Not sure how I'm going to do that.

Oh, thanks for reminding me about when I tried playing with my feet. It didn't work as I expected :oops: Two players is the fatest way to beat some games, and for certain games, two players looks immensly cool. Battletoads & Double Dragon!

When I download movies from you, I start them going. When I notice they are finished, I watch it once, then close Bit Torrent. A game like SMB won't get that much extra bandwidth from me, but say the 40 min Simon's Quest will.
