Hello,
Ruffle version is 0.2.0-nightly.2025.10.19, libTAS version is 1.4.6.
The movie does not sync with this version of ruffle nor with any that I tried pretty randomly... (I don't load openh264 by starting ruffle a first time before opening libTAS).
The one that synced the farthest was Nightly 2024-01-16 on the level 4 of the 2nd pony at 2:00 of your encode. All others desynced at the first jump.
I understand, the movie was extremely finicky to sync even on my device. I did find some success by deleting the Openmpt files within the ruffle folder.
Eventually I might remake the entire movie to get around this problem
Would you like the submission to be delayed to let you the time to do it ?
If so libopenh264, should be downloaded first and no deletion of files inside ruffle should be performed.
Thank you for your help !
Sure, you can put the submission on hold until I find the time to remake the TAS
Sorry for the inconvenience

Updated movie as of 18 October 2025.
Changes:

- Removed single blank input frames at start of several levels, saving a total of 35 frames

Hello Jaye,
Sorry for taking this long to judge your movie...
What version of ruffle did you use to make the improvement movie ?
Thanks in advance.

Oh hey that's my upload lol
I speedran this game many many years ago, mostly with Fluttershy, and was unchallenged at the top of the SRC board with the only sub-2 minute run of the game ever made for a long time until the spike damage clip was found. Before that, I was the only one who had found another trick in stage 6 letting you get to the boss early with Flutters. In fact, the reason I saw that nobody on the leaderboard had done that one was the reason I decided to actually run the game again and get a good time to claim the spot, but I never did return to it after the spike clip was found.
Edit: So while that upload still exists I have now also uploaded an updated file at https://kenny.next-era.net/adventureponies.7z which has both Adventure Ponies and Adventure Ponies 2. Adventure Ponies 2 is certainly not as good as the first one, seemingly also having six ponies but it's actually just three with two different outfits.
I don't plan to TAS Adventure Ponies 2, not only because half of its content is repeated, but also because the bosses use Math.random RNG extensively, which would be a massive pain to deal with
It would not be as interesting to watch
