Something very strange is that when i use video output from SNES9X it doesn't have the distortion problem on my TV. It only happens with video output from FCEU which is strange becuase im using the same script on both aside from the audio change.

For your first problem: does the picture have the same distortion when played on your PC, or if you rip it? If so, post a screenshot. Otherwise, nothing is coming to mind, at the moment(but I'm tired:-)). I'm assuming you're using the AVS you posted earlier. The desync with SNES9x is probably due to the line: 
AssumeFPS(last,1008307711,16777216,false)
The framerate above only applies to FCEU. SNES9x is straight 60fps(change the "false" to "true" and it'll work, though). Also, you don't need to run AssumeFPS twice(in any case); only after Weave to convert to 29.97(30000/1001). Oh, and you might as well have the emulator output 48KHz audio, rather than resampling it.
No it doesn't have the distortion when played on Software DVD player it only exhibits this problem on a DVD player attached to a TV. I will attempt a screenshot which can hopefully fix the problem. As far as the SNES9x sounds desync thank you. I was already outputting to 48khz audio :)

I have to small questions hopeuflly someone can answer. 1. I ouput a video from FCEU and it comes out perfectly formatted. i use the script to convert the video to mpeg using Tmpeg and it comes out perfectly formatted. Im using DVD-Lab to author the dvd and for some reason unknown to me the video does not display correctly on the TV. The right side of the screen has a kind of "Bowing" effect and its not aligned properly. Anyone know why this could be? the fright side of the video is perfectly straight and paralell to the right side of a TV screen however the left is slanted and mimics a "Pincushion" effect on a monitor. 2. When i output an AVI from Snes9x the sound is always perfectly synced. When i use the script to convert the video to mpeg it desyncs the wav from the video. This does not occur when i convert AVI output from FCEU, any explainations on this? Once these small issues are corrected i am going to be releasing TAS's on DVD. They will be in ISO format ready to burn and they will be distributed via bittorrent. I will post all the links to the torrents once they are available. The first set of DVD's will be the Megaman Series and the contents are below. What i would like to do is send the .ISO to the organizers of this site and have them review it before i release it to the public and that way they can have me add special backgrounds or whatever they see fit to make it more unique for the site. If the organizers are interested in that plan please contact me. Megaman - Tool Assisted Speedrun - DVD Set DVD 1 Megaman 1 Rockman 2 Rockman 3 DVD 2 Megaman 4 Megaman 5 DVD 3 Megaman 6 Megaman 7 DVD 4 Megaman x Megaman x2 DVD 5 Megaman x3 Rockman World Megaman 2 - Gameboy DVD 6 Megaman Zero 3 Megaman Zero 4 DVD 7 Rockman&Forte - Rockman Rockman&Forte - Forte

I have the same problem as mentioned above, i have rechecked everything multiple times and yet AVI fails to start. Is there any way to program a button into the gui that starts the AVI record?

Hey josh, i was wondering if you could send me your monster party final? its not on the submisions page and it hasen't been published, nor can i find it on your filespace anymore. Thanks for the props on my movies, i played the movies on full speed because i never took the time to actually learn how to effectivley use slowdowns. I was relying on my natural ability on the NES in most cases, however save states were the key. I really wish i had time to do more of these i still watch pretty much every movied published on this site. BTW josh i have a request for you if you have time. Could you do Willow? I started one a while back but never got around to finishing it, its one i've been waiting for from the site for a long time. I played it for endless months as a kid.

Im currently Using this script in Tmpeg to convert a Nes video captured from FCEU. AVISource("nesoutput.avi") AssumeFieldBased() AssumeTFF() PointResize(512,240) # omit this for softer vertical transitions BilinearResize(650,240) AddBorders(35,0,35,0) AssumeFPS(last,1008307711,16777216,false) Weave() vf=AssumeFPS(last,30000,1001,true) af=ResampleAudio(vf,48000) AudioDub(vf,MergeChannels(GetChannel(af,1),GetChannel(af,1))) I have posted two screen shots from the original avi and from the resulting mpeg. The mpeg video created is simply unacceptable to watch, somehow the conversion created artifacts, blurring and i guess you would call it "Mice Teeth" or liney video. Also if you notice megamans life bar in the mpeg video its obviously not converted correctly and im not sure why but i would guess resizing. Please tell me what im doing wrong and also lead me in the direction for better video. I just want the mpeg to be as close to the avi output as possible.

I am currently finishing up a a DVD set for all of the time attack videos currently listed on bisqwit's site. I have categorized and grouped the time attacks together for better organization. The entire set will be aproxiamtely 20-25 DVD's will Lables and Cover art. I will glady seed this DVD's to anyone interested in packs until they have reached the masses and hopefully others will help me seed. I should have some samples up in the next week or so along with the cover arts and labels pending my job isn't too busy.
