When you are playing a movie on SNES9x midified by your team, you can see frame count if you want. What about a re-recording count ? Not like XXX/Total like the Frame but just like XXX ? It will be interresting for the viewer of the run, for to see waht was hard for the TASer even if doesn't take in consideration slow speed ?

seeing the re-record count go way up in a section doesn't ncessarily indicate that that section was particularly hard. It could be a result of testing different routes, finding new optimizations, or that he just messed up the movie a lot and had to redo it from that point. I'm not sure that a displayed re-record counter is a very useful feature
It's hard to look this good. My TAS projects

Implementing this would mean recreating the whole movie file format, because we'd have to include something that says "HERE was a re-record" between keypresses. Plus, I don't think it would be that useful.
