Ok, let's go through it.
Tekken 3 is a 368x480 game (ignoring the overscan).
And my target is 1080p (4:3) for this case since going over that for personal encodes is dumb.
Upscale by x4 with a Nearest Neighbor.
Readjust the X by making the video 4:3 (lanczos).
Downscale back down to 1080p (lanczos).
Now you have an encode.
Now I can't recall which emulator Astaroth was using back then but if memory serves me correctly it was PSXjin (since you can tell by his Tekken 2 TASes).
Due to his different methods he's gone and thrown a smoothing filter over it to "clean" it up.
Which is why it looks "smooth", which in reality is worse than having the raw detail.

Probably add a check for higher than 65 for those other systems cause I'd reckon half rate would be better.
Edit: Masterjun's edit made me think feos just posted... So-- enjoy the bump. Whoops.

Same methods apply to not BizHawk. You didn't bring up that you can't Hawk.
Your answer to resolution was in the provided topic. That's what you get for skipping.
That's Anamorphic Widescreen to a game that doesn't actually support it. It's a trash encode.

You asked me this question in a private message and you ignored the answer completely and went here. With a different encode too.
I'm repeating it.
The current PS1 TASing emulator is BizHawk.
For Dumping PS1 with Hawk.For an encoding script that you can use.
You skipped the two steps and went for the link to here for any issues you would face after receiving the tools to do it yourself.

electricslide do me a favour. Stop it.
Do you know one of the rules on TASVideos?
Don't be lazy. We will try and beat your movie. We should hopefully not succeed.
That WIP that was0x and pirohiko has created applies to this for performing better compared to this TAS.
Vice versa. I don't see why we should have a TAS that was rushed which is evident by a WIP that was made which can show the case of "it's already obsolete before it was even submitted".
You want a movie that was ACCEPTED and was under PUBLISHING and see that it got REJECTED this year from a WIP (before the WIP was completed)? Here you go.
(Fun Fact on this one, it was actually real close to Publication, I would know. I was the Publisher.)
As a better note. We also have a movie currently in the submission pile (besides this one) which will be rejected for the same reason. This is the movie for the same reason.
No it isn't. This one is for what exists.
As for you last "point", get over yourself and quit attempting to save something that's plagued with issues.

Let's not TAS on an emulator full of hacks. Thanks.
And if you want a suggestion. It's called DobieStation.
One that's young and is full of potential on not being loaded with hacks beyond the brim.

What do you mean by borders? Forced Pillarboxes you're putting in place?
Encodes are generally the video in pixel perfect upscalled then placed into the 4:3 resolution to make it clean to how it would be on TV.

Nope. Let me redirect you: Go Here.
Let me create another example of an error on YouTube's behalf.
A good chunk of encodes created by feos on feos' YouTube account (one of the three) has artifacting errors due to YouTube being garbage... that's what's classified as a report.
To make that more useful a list would be beneficial. The course of action redoing all of feos' encodes the effected encodes.
An encode error by something that's not trivial should be brought on the page the movie belongs to.

By most games you just meant Sonic right?
Where were you when Comix Zone was submitted and you could've criticized the TAS' audio? Oh right, you were praising the broken sound.
> The Test Proves This... So-- No shit Sherlock... Let's all go back to snes9x with it's horrible graphical bugs and say screw higan/bsnes.
Comix Zone. Have fun attempting to Console Verify that.
And I don't care about tinfoil hats much like you don't care about accuracy.

It doesn't settle anything when a movie exists that obsoletes this one at an opening segment before it was even submitted.
It doesn't matter that a segment is being redone when there is evidence that this is sloppy.
Recall to my first post on this thread and the notable issues was0x brought forth that the author didn't.
This movie was rushed and we shouldn't be giving a hand to attempt to save it due to this.

I'm just going to point out two things that 0xwas wrote for the first seven minutes (he's allegedly looking through more):
I'm also going to play the Discord card.
chatterbox is in the same channel as 0xwas who has been providing input back and forth with pirohiko, input which is faster before this was conceived in which he didn't reference and instead just decided to make on a whim from the looks of what we have here.

I'm going to call for two users 0xwas and pirohiko.
Since this was done relatively quickly in the amount of time to produce it while I know they're gearing to improve on yours and have been grinding it heavily to find anything possible.
I'm not impressed on how quickly this was produced and submitted when there's the possibility to find more for this specific branch TAS.

We probably don't need a page specifically since we can do what SMB does which is actually write in the description with the RTA time in mind and state what that is when the timings are different where it needs the check.

There's a difference between using a game and making a tune out of it in an actual TAS and cutting it up and manipulating it.
Rewrite your steps at 4 and 6 to 8 cause it's just dumb to read... considering how redundant these steps are.
People already do this to Video Games / TV Shows / Movies and modify the footage/audio to work with them and so-forth. (forgot the term of the people who do this.)
You know, people who put in the time.
And why are you writing "TASes" when you're disregarding the fact the possibility of a TAS can actually do it in the first place without the cuts... which you're calling for in your "steps"?

I have 5.0-8991 installed which is part of the monthly updates and it still has TAStools.
I did bug Fog quickly about it and it may just be a bug in the UI.

This is not a bug Evan.
You're the one missing the firmwares.
BizHawk will not be providing bioses to any emulator.
It's your job to go to Google and hunt them down.
