There's no such thing in nature.
Are you absolutely sure SNES is limited to the same architecture as NES?
I don't understand how you keep mixing up the terms "hardware" (console/computer architecture) and "software" (operating system).
First of all, DOS is only an operating system. DOOM was developed to run on any IBM PC compatible machine, and it's how we are running it actually. Sure, you can completely limit yourself to running it on DOS only, but how would you dump AVI from it then? And what quality it will be? Some may say "it will be autentic original quality", but why use poor 3D if we right now can afford superb 3D? Just run glBoom, and it starts looking as good as possible, while still syncing for the same movie. Should we drop advantages? I don't think so. It all means, DOOM is not DOS-exclusive. It's just a map.
The benefit from it being... what?
Now my actual thoughts on the matter.
Why does PC as a platform even make sense? Because there is such a platform!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Personal_Computer
It is not (just another) personal computer, it's Personal Computer from IBM. It has standardized architecture, as Warp said, and the idea is to have everything totally compatible between all the different implementations.
So when we put console names as a platform, we are dropping the company that made it (unless it's NES or SNES), and just go with the name of the very platform. If someone is unhappy with the term's ambiguity, we simply can use IBM PC instead of just PC. That would make the most sense possible and leave zero disambiguation. And none of the games that do not run on IBM PC compatible hardware would make it to that platform. And all that do, will be there. Again, DOS/Windows/recent OSX/even Linux are only operating systems, not hardware configurations. And they are all ran on IBM PC. If they are not, it's a different platform.
TL:DR: Combine by hardware configuration.

The current SM74 submission.
Note 1: That freeze was occurring on win7 x64 only. On XP it captures well with Glide.
Note 2: I was using Jabo, and it couldn't resume capturing after reset. With a fast computer, could you test it? Just make sure to use kkapture.

- uploading and deleting works as expected
- upload speed for me is ~950KB/s
- spaces in video titles aren't supported, but I see no need in them when aiming for TVC (EDIT: I think quotes are required for titles with spaces, but haven't tested)
Pending further tests...

Thanks, however now as I tested it, it has graphical glitches with Glide and it freezes some seconds in when using kkapture+Glide (no matter what resolution/Glide settings/kkapture settings). With Jabo it all goes perfect, but maximum res is 1200p.

Whenever there are news, I will just make a post.

I actually meant Jabo. From your posts about SM74, it seems to be the only plugin to use for dumping, since you need to restart mupen, which will probably make it desync again with Glide.
Also, use this trick for such huge images:

Am I the only one who thinks that once SGDQ feels problematic to afford for dwangoAC, there's no hard need to travel? I, for one, don't have a right to require AC to spend his efforts (and money) on a less meaningful event, if those efforts (and money) will anyway be spend on a more meaningful one later too. SGDQ feels more like a way to spend "spare" resources on, and I'm not sure there are on dwango's side (not to disparage your abilities, Alan, I'm just caring about SGDQ not becoming a trouble).

It's a habit over here to use the best anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering options possible. And yes, emulators that allow dumping at high resolutions should be dumped at them for HD encodes whenever possible, like that 1536p, then it needs no upscaling and looks the best. For SD encodes though, you'd need to test what looks the best: dumping at native res with multisampling, or at hires with downscaling.
http://tasvideos.org/EncoderGuidelines.html#Antialiasing
As for Mupen, I think Glide doesn't allow multisampling, while, for example, Rise does. Is it correct?

Nah. I can understand random people wanting it to be published and voting Yes on that ground, but was it entertaining? Was it even an actual playaround? Not anything that's not speed-oriented is necessarily a playaround. You know, playaround is in fact one of the hardest branches ever to do right. Because it involves deep knowledge and great execution, but also it needs a game that is complex enough. Bonus points for using 2 players.
Here... we have some obscure (due to being Japanese-only and anime-based, even though this anime was popular) game, with 1 character beating enemies with a narrow moveset for half an hour. Probably I am missing something, but I see zero room for a playaround that this game could offer. Even with 2 characters (dunno if it's possible) it won't attract me at all. I watched 5 minutes of it, FF'd for quite a bit, looked at it, and saw nothing worth keeping watching.
It's a great game for Vault, but speed/entertainment trade-offs (let alone playarounds) simply don't belong here. Voted No.

It is what I've been using with no complaint from the game.
Also, WHO CAN EDIT THE FREAKING MOVIE?!

Archanfel: it's really nothing bad to post a separate reply, and it's easier to find.

So can someone edit the movie to include the entire ending song loop? PM'd the author, no response yet.

I tested today going crazy with resolutions higher than my screen and .kkapture, and it works perfectly on win7 x64 with no VMs. Mupen64, pcsx, doom... I bet it will work with BizHawk's N64 video too.

I think we must judge that by how wide is Doom speedrunning, and how many movies are going to be in that section if we choose a separate platform. Otherwise we should prefer consistency and just go with DOS.

As it's accepted, I'm already looking into publishing it. But I have a question: does the ending music loop? Is the entire 1 loop included in the movie? If not, how can I extend it to do so? Or maybe I'd ask the author to do it (if only there's more music after this movie's end).

Music needs to carry some sort of "new meaning" to be considered fair use. And while for standalone music it's not hard to tell if it gets new meaning by becoming a part of a new installation, game music was supposed to play while you're playing, and TASes add literally nothing to this. But my "personal sense" tells me that only posting game OSTs (standalone) really violates copyright. And it may very well be completely false.

Okay, to whoever is going to publish it. Please PM me before doing so, I think we need to figure out all about resolutions on IRC all together.

Didn't think of level order. And no, I wasn't going to harm enemies at all.
