If you really want scanlines you could use BizHawk which has options for scanlines (you can even adjust how much your want) and is in very active devopment.
If no one has a solution for FCEUX then you could try this...

Would a minimum A press run also aim for time? So lowest a presses but in the fastest time? If so than a minimum A press run would be really hard to make.

I also think the 100% run shouldn't use the glitch. That's like having a 96 exit SMW run that still utilizes the arbitrary code bug but completes all the exits.
Clipping through the walls has absolutely nothing to do with arbitrary code. A 100% run should use glitches as it would make the run faster and more entertaining.
Yeah that was a bad analogy...
Here's a better one: It's kind of like having a 70 star sm64 run, but still BLJing in the process to get 70 stars faster. Which means you could BLJ to places and get stars you usually couldn't get without more stars. And during a level BLJ to reach the star quicker. Then at the end of the run instead of BLJing through the 70 star door you open it without the BLJ glitch. So you are collecting 70 stars but when using a glitch like that you might as well utilise the glitch to it's full potential (0 stars) or not use the glitch at all (70 stars, BLJless), don't just use a kind-of-glitched/only-uses-part-of-the-glitch run (16 stars (side-BLJless) after 0 stars has already been made).
Anyways it is just my opinion and you probably have reasons you think a 100% run and any% (any% not being glitched%) should use glitches.
Or one way to think about this run is the glitched run with some extra padding. However I still think the run is entertaining and probably took some hard work, I just need to document my opinion (even if no one reads it lol).

I still think in addition to a 100% run there should also be an any% run that doesn't use the glitch (like Materjuns run). I also think the 100% run shouldn't use the glitch. That's like having a 96 exit SMW run that still utilizes the arbitrary code bug but completes all the exits. What I'm saying is there should be glitched% runs but not glitched 100% runs.

Under the PAL version I did this with 2 players:

Don't mind the video I was checking something so I can now validate that NTSC is preferred as it has less phases. I'm working on 2 player for the NTSC version at the moment.
The values are universal between both versions.
Don't they both have 99 phases? Or maybe I misunderstand.
EDIT: Oh yeah with 2 players the Test Your Skill could definitely be improved. But I think there should be a "1 player" and "2 player" branch. BTW does anyone know the difference between game A and game B?

I'd be interested in TASing/watching a TAS of this game. It seems like an interesting game to try and optimize and find routes. The TAS I made of the first "Test Your Skill" level took 689 rerecords. I'm pretty sure however that it is optimal. I should've used RAM watch though because it wouldn't taken as many rerecords (addresses like speed and coordinates). But I ended up just figuring out how the game worked so I don't think you could improve it, but please prove me wrong. :)

Sloppy input is sloppy.
No vote.
Can someone validate a better route for "Test your Skill" please.
A faster route looks like it can be done the movement of this TAS is very lacking.
Yup, I did it. 8.5 seconds were left on the clock (Note this is the first "Test your Skill" round, I haven't TASed the later ones). It had 689 rerecords. Also it was done on (U) region version and it was NES.

The "Classic" version you can hit the opposite direction at any time and Mario flip the other way in an instance.
The Original NES version you slide for a set number of frames before next input.
In that case if I did it on the Classic NES (i.e. GBA) version it might be a little faster...

Well it's not a secret. 87316156 and TEHH have just finished World 3 3 weeks ago. The movie's entertaining already, but World 4 would be really shocking, so I'd prefer to keep you shocked. I think it won't take long to see the WIP coming.
Are you also working on the maximum coins TAS or just 87316156 and TEHH? It was a little unclear to me. (I hope you are because you are the king of SMB :P)

In addition to what others said:
Why are you using the GBA version? Classic NES is basically virtual console on a cartridge.
Use this ROM:
Mario Bros. (U) [!].nes
I think this is a good game choice but unfortunately I'll have to hold my vote.
P.S. Welcome to TASVideos!

I don't think this is known already. When accelerating on the ground from a stop, it appears that if you lose 1 subpixel on purpose (ie. stay on 23 speed for 1 extra frame) before the second jump, you can save 7 subpixels. I don't think it saves any time in the any% run but just throwing it out there.
Wasn't that how the any% run got improved by 1 frame?

Cool find. It's nice that you actually bothered to "fix" the old TAS instead of leaving it there for no one to obsolete.
No vote however because the run is not entertaining.

Well, I don't know of anybody working on TASing this hack, so here's a WIP that saves a frame rule on the "first" two areas. Feedback appreciated.[/video]
The WIP is pretty good. Perhaps a few frame rules can be saved that way, for I didn't use memory watching back when I made that TAS. I was trying to find a major improvement to improve my run, such as a new route, but I tried almost every route I can think of but failed to find a faster one. If you're able to find a faster route then I'd really be shocked. Good luck. :)
You should really try to obsolete that movie. Do you think that movie is your least optimized TAS (not that it is bad, all of your TASes are very well optimized!)? Since your homepage is outdated I am unsure what TASes you are working on obsoleting.

Would it be conceivable for anyone with a SNES enabled bot to run games using the Super Gameboy? Just use the SNES controller input as a replacement for the handheld, and we could possibly verify GB titles.
I've always been curious about handheld verifications. I hope we start seeing them. I'm not sure exactly how it would work, with the exception of the SGB idea mentioned.

I found this glitch while playing through the game in real time a few months ago. Today I just decided I should record it I don't know if this has been found but here is a demonstration. Probably has been found because it is pretty simple. And this can be done much smoother this is just a proof of concept. This took me a while to make because there was a technical problem in BizHawk.

EDIT: Ah, I knew it had to have been discovered. But I still think it looks pretty cool.

Hey, Add me skype: got4n123
But project was paused for some reasons, I have RAM Adress, add me on skype.
For the desyncs, check this : http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12484
And corner boosting: I don't know, but that does not work for me though.
It is still possible for it to desync even with those setting (I used them). But thanks anyway.
Also I'll add you in a moment.

Btw, I didn't said that I'll go on with 1-2
I'm still searching 2 frames optimisation in 1-1
May I please have dtm?
Also what emu version?
I tried TASing this game (just first level) one day. Pretty fun to TAS but those spinning ramps can be tricky to optimize. See if you can get anything there. Also Do you have the ram addresses? If so could you also upload those (sorry for asking for so much stuff :P). Also have you confirmed if corner boosting exists? If it doesn't that would make things easier (when I started part of the first level I didn't know about corner boosting). :P
P.S. Also my run desynced so I can not give it to anybody, but I was just trying some stuff out so I probably could have optimized it more.
