So, I'm getting started on TASing and have a doubt. I have been recording MMX, and ended the recording after about 4 stages. I know there is a way to resume from the end of a current movie, but can't seem to get the grasp of it. Anyone can give me some help step-by-step?

Play movie in Read+Write mode. Save state where you want to resume recording. Load state.

If you have already made savestates at or near the end of the movie before stopping, you can just load them after starting to play the movie back. Must be in "read+write" (i.e. not "read-only") mode in order to resume recording from that savestate. There is also a way to set a button to switch between "read-only" and "read+write" mode: Config -> Hotkeys... -> Movies -> Toggle read-only.
