This question is directed towards any emulation video, but I will use mupen 64 as my main reference. Here is my problem, lets say I put in a few hours for a video one day, save it, and work on a second, which continues from the first the next day. How would I go about making one finished product in a large .m64 video rather than using multiple small ones? Another question. If I have multiple small .m64 videos, how can I make a large avi video that covers them all? I don't have a problem doing this with the fceux nes emulator, just mupen 64.

If you don't continu from your first movie, you'll have multiple .m64. But it will be almost impossible to put them back together and sync them. I might be possible with a nes or snes games, but it's unlikely. You should always work with only one movie file.

If your subsequent videos are supposed to start immediately after the previous ones end, that's basic rerecording. Pause emulation after you've done your work on the first movie, save a state, then load this movie the next day, uncheck "read-only", load the state you saved back then. Done. In case you have several ,m64 files, you can capture each of them to a separate video and append them to each other in VirtualDub or a similar editor.

That answers my question perfectly moozooh. I knew you could edit within the movie but didn't know you could extend it through the same manner. Probably should have posted this on "newbie corner." I guess that brings a new idea. A better .avi recorder in mupen64 which easily records multiple .m64 movies like the one that fceux has.

I can move it to the newbie corner. In fact, that's what I'll do right now.
