I am currently trying to mess around with the game Bad Street Brawlers and I saw that there was a rejected run from 2005 on here. I already know that I can beat his time by over 5 minutes but I would just like to see the run even if I have to struggle to get it to sync at all so I can see if there is anything I do not know. The issue I am running into is that it is a .fmv file and I do not know how to open that in fceux or how to convert it to a fm2 file. I saw a post on here that linked to Nesmock but I do not understand how to use it. If someone could direct me how to use the software, or even do the conversion themselves and post a link to dehacked it would be greatly appreciated. NEVERMIND L+R is known and I found a WIP on a different page. Also, I am aware that Bad Street Brawlers is on the list of bad game choices but I am going to beat the previously submitted time by at least 5 minutes (so hopefully around 15 minutes total) and I found a L+R glitch that allows for an instant-kill of an enemy once per level regardless of character or enemy location. I know those may not be enough to get publication but I am trying anyways.

Thanks to Brandon, BizHawk will open .fmv natively. I know you are a TASedit guy so I won't suggest you use bizhawk. But at least it would be a much better emulator to use for comparing than famtasia. And you could convert it to .fm2 from there without too much hassle (find and replace in notepad++ will do the trick) Also, the movie in question is likely to desync quickly in fceux or bizhawk. This page should make it painfully obvious why.
It's hard to look this good. My TAS projects

That is good to know. I actually just downloaded bizhawk yesterday and began messing around. TAStudio is a good start but, while I know bizhawk is far more accurate, in my opinion TAStudio still doesn't meet the level of fceux 2.1.5 TASedit let alone 2.1.6 TAS Editor so my NES runs will probably remain fceux for a bit. I am actually planning my first transition out of NES exclusivity due to bizhawk and TAStudio though.

I don't think you need to qualify that as an opinion. It is undeniably not as good. It is just a start, in time it will be equal or better than TASEdit.

That's doubly awesome!
