Version 2.2.2 Playback of a Genesis TAS movie starts to stutter heavily after like 2-3 minutes. I tried another tas file which was recorded with 2.2.1 and was already succesfully played back. Same bug with 2.2.2 I loaded both (the old and the new TAS movie) with Bizhawk 2.2.1 and they work fine there. No lag at all. I noticed that the memory usage of 2.2.2 increases a lot when this problem happens : 2.2.1 around 1.5 - 1.7 GB stable. 2.2.2 over 3 GB.. at the exact same position of the movie. I repeated both tests to be sure.

I had the same problem but it was fixed already after my question. It is not yet in the official release though. You can download the latest fresh builds here : https://ci.appveyor.com/project/zeromus/bizhawk-udexo/build/artifacts I teste it and it works, you can load Saturn projects now. Unfortunatly (at least on my PC) using TASstudio slows Saturn emulation down so that many games start to lag (Sega Rally for example)

I checked it to be sure. Loaded the image, created a new TASproj. Played a minute. Saved. Closed Bizhawk. Reopened it, same image, same bios, didn't touch any settings at all, loaded TASproj... Hash didn't match Heap Brk-Heap. Tested it with two other games as well. As long as i don't close bizhawk i can load the files, but once i restartet bizhawk and reloaded the game image loading the TASproj isnt possible anymore.

I tried to record a longplay of a Saturn game (i know saturn emulation is far from perfect and therefore problematic) Recording and playing a movie actually works fine (the game was Bug! (U) ) but when i try to load the TASProject it says that the hash check failed, after that Bizhawk crashes. Are there some settings i could try? Besides that, thank you very much for this great software. Recording Longplays with Bizhawk is so much less work :)

Hi there. When i use TAStudio with Master System or NES games saving states freezes Bizhawk after some time. First it saves and loads instantly but after 5-10minutes it starts to freeze Bizhawk. It increases over time until every hit on the save button causes a 5-6 second freeze. When I save the TASProject, Restart Bizhawk and load it again saving states is instant again. Is there something i might be able to do about it?

I am stunned that I didn't find this software before. Bizhawk is awesome. After a few tests it seems to run Saturn and N64 titles better than all other emulators. :) Thanks a f$%&ing lot!!!
