a = avisource("clip.avi").crop(0,0,-0,-192)
b = ImageSource(file="pic.png", start=0, end=a.FrameCount)
c = avisource("clip.avi").crop(0,192,-0,-0)

return StackVertical(a,b,c)
The pic needs to have the same width as the two screens. I don't know if this will work, probably not because a & c have different file format than b. I will just leave this here for further modifications and reference. If you only want a bar between two screens: 
a = avisource("clip.avi").crop(0,0,-0,-192)
b = avisource("clip.avi").crop(0,192,-0,-0).AddBorders(0,X,0,0, Y)

return StackVertical(a,b)
Where X is the number of pixels of height of your bar and Y the color in $000000 format.

Without testing MUGG's solutions, I'd say it's way simpler than the solution I used back then. I think I wrote some hack-ish program in C that read the raw input the emulator produced from a fifo file, read half the frame, threw in the logo and read the rest of the frame. All that was then given to mencoder to encode over 2 or even 3 passes. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find said code anymore (other than it being superfluous), so I can't provide you with the tools I used.

MUGG Both commands work pretty awesome. But the first is more useful, cuz one may use mere black picture with it when necessary.

If anyone is wondering, the code here uses AVISynth and the code is saved as a .avs file.

Oh I totally forgot to mention that the code was Avisynth. I'm glad it worked.

Please, tell how do you like the result: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzhN8XlKn58 It was made with these commands: 
a = AVISource("movie.avi")
b = a.ChangeFPS(25).Trim(0,46020)
c = b.PointResize(b.width * 4, b.height * 4)

d = ImageSource(file="logoHD NDS.png", start=0, end=49, fps=c.FrameRate).ConvertToRGB24()
e = BlankClip(d, audio_rate=a.AudioRate, channels=a.AudioChannels)
f = AudioDub(d, e)

g = f + c

crop1 = g.crop(0,0,-0,-768)
crop3 = g.crop(0,768,-0,-0)
crop2 = ImageSource(file="crop.png", start=0, end=g.FrameCount, fps=g.FrameRate).ConvertToRGB24()
last = StackVertical(crop1,crop2,crop3)

ConvertToYV24(chromaresample="point", matrix="PC.601")
ConvertToYV12(chromaresample="point", matrix="PC.601")
where crop.png is 1024x256 & logoHD NDS.png is 1024x1536

Please, tell how do you like the result:
+ It's good when you embed the video and make the player vertically tall so you can see everything properly. - On the Youtube site itself however, having the screens on top of each other decreases the visibility and the logo between the screens makes it even worse. One has to use the "watch in fullscreen" feature. I would use the extra space besides the videos This is only a demonstration picture. Also, it's only my suggestion.

Sure! Anyway, it's a display height limitation that may affect adversely. Also i had an idea of encode without separation too.

Why?

Why?
You can use the extra space effectively, filling it with a bigger version of the bottom screen. I made a picture demonstrating this. If the extra space is not used, you only have 2 small screens and a lot of black space next to the screens which looks kind of bad...

You mean we shall not resize the whole picture, only add a resized bottom screen to it? Command plz EDIT: if we upload on YT, even whole picture needs resizing to go over 1080 to become Original. So it must have 1536 of height, as well as resized bottom screen near it. Also it is not ideal cuz Contra 4 has events on both screens, even whole levels on the other one.

e = b.PointResize(b.width * 2, b.height * 2).AddBorders(0,0,2,X)
f = StackHorizontal(e, d)
return f
movie.avi = your movie, recorded from desmume logo.png = your logo (width = 256, height = X) Not sure if this will work, I didn't test. This should create what I had in mind with my demonstration pic. Note: It won't give a fully resized bottom screen since I don't know how to deal with the logo between the two screens (when creating a resized bottom screen).

Damned code: 
a = AVISource("movie.avi").ChangeFPS(25)

crop1 = a.Crop(0,0,-0,-192).PointResize(a.width * 5 / 2, a.height * 5 / 4)
crop3 = a.Crop(0,192,-0,-0).PointResize(a.width * 5 / 2, a.height * 5 / 4)
crop2 = ImageSource(file="tasvideos.png", start=0, end=a.FrameCount, fps=a.FrameRate).ConvertToRGB24()

v1 = a.Crop(0,192,-0,-0).PointResize(a.width * 6, a.height * 3)
v2 = StackVertical(crop1,crop2,crop3)

last = StackHorizontal(v1,v2)

ConvertToYV24(chromaresample="point", matrix="PC.601")
ConvertToYV12(chromaresample="point", matrix="PC.601")
Example picture: [URL=http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/5816/78309859.png][/URL] [URL=http://i53.tinypic.com/29byjko.png][/URL] Just do not fusillade me for these 5/2 & 5/4.

Can anyone help me creating this script again? The image between the two DS screens is useless, and apparently, it has no subtitles added. My knowledge of AviSynth is none, so please help me.
