Does the resize from the Bizhawk A/V Writer work to resize a video?
Yes. The game inputs at its native resolution (i.e. the NES is 256x240). You can output the video in a desired resolution (e.g. 1280x720).

I am trying to do a "Nearest Neighbor" and "Lanzcos" setup sot hat I can upload to Youtube immediately. Is that possible on BizHawk or should I just one resize and do the other "Lanzcos" resize in an editing program? Also, I like to listen to other things while I am working on a project, how do turn the sound down when I am recording? And will it still produce the sound after recording? I just want to "mute" the sound while I am recording the video but I still want to produce the sound in the video.

Why are you resizing twice?

You can mute the game's audio via the volume mixer. It won't have any effect when encoding so it's basically a win-win.

I just wanted to resize it to the right aspect ratio. I wanted to make it "HD" by Youtube standards. So I do not have to do that?

Is it possible to transfer regular input with TAstudio window opened? It's not that convenient when you have to use either only mouse to mark specific cells in the input grid, or only console input and then open TAstudio to perform various manipulations on it.
TASing is like making a film: only the best takes are shown in the final movie.

And by "console input".
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.

Check the "Recording Mode" check box, and TAStudio will record your controller/keyboard inputs.

Oh, thank you. Sorry, I wasn't precise.

So when you using BizHawk to dump videos, you only need to resize once in A/V Writer. Is that right?

I don't use recording mode in TAStudio 'cause of a muscle disease I have. I'm bedridden which means I can't grip a game controller.

So you only need to resize once to get the results you want? I usually use Virtualdub to the "Nearest Neighbor" and "Lanzcos" resize. I also use it cut out clips as I usually make videos of individual levels.

Windows Binary Release notes This is a required update for all BizHawk 2.6 TAStudio users! There was a TAStudio savestate corruption bug that affected nearly every core! Everyone should upgrade to this release, and delete the savestate history of any projects they are working on (likely the savestates in the project are already corrupted).
It's hard to look this good. My TAS projects

Do you only need to resize once with BizHawk A/V Writer in order to make your dumps "HD" by Youtube standards? Or should you just dump the video and edit the video on an editor?

The link doesn't seem to work. The link in the Bizhawk page does work, though. Might want to fix that.

The Neo Geo Pocket has its default controls wrong. The buttons are reversed. A is supposed to be mapped to the Z key and B to the X key. The B button is supposed to be mapped to the B button on an Xbox controller. A and B are supposed to be mapped to the 1 and 2 buttons on a USB gamepad respectively. The Game Boy and Game Gear default controls are perfect as they are. Copy-pasting it over to the Neo Geo Pocket messes with the muscle memory. For instance, Puyo Pop has an option to reverse rotation controls. Reversing reversed controls is redundant.

Should I just use resize feature and do one resize feature to upscale for all videos?

I just went and looked in the forums / BizHawk download page for the first time in a while, and saw that there is once again a Linux build. I just wanted to mention how happy I am about it! Looking forward to try it when/if I try my hand at TASing again. Thank you to all those involved!

Since Bizhawk 2.3.2, my Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga luascript is malfunctioning when trying to open the "Savegames" display. I have trouble pinpointing the issue. I tried removing code but it always seems to log to console: NLua.Exceptions.LuaScriptException: 1 or NLua.Exceptions.LuaScriptException: 16 What does it mean? Also gui.DrawNew("emu") had to be replaced by gui.DrawFinish() in order for the script to continue working. But I don't see anything about it in the changelogs. Bizhawk 2.3.1 loads the script just fine, but 2.3.2 is where the problems occur.

I know you can resize the video dumps within A/V Writer feature but I am wondering if I should edit it using Virtualdub? I would post in the Encoder thread but no one has posted in months and I do not want to double post.

I’ve tried to run a Sega Saturn game, but it maxed out at 45 FPS and averaging only 26 FPS.
Planned runs: Marble Madness (Arcade, Genesis J, GG/SMS) Proposed: Ecco the Dolphin (Genesis, GG/SMS, CD: regular, camera freeze) Ecco: The Tides of Time (Genesis, GG/SMS, CD; normal mode) Mario Kart DS (all cups, all missions) In progress: Grand Poo World 3 (all exits hard mode)

Here's the part that Evan left out by the way:

The requirements for Sega Saturn TASing with mednafen's core is much higher than that. So. Build a new system that isn't being CPU bound on your system. I'm also having a sense of Deja Vu where you've complained about this before.

How do you change FFMPEG line? I want to change the crf to 0. Which ones are good for lossless recording?
