How would one go about making a video using the Linux version? I've tried:
./snes9x rom.zip -sounddev /dev/dsp1 -dumpstreams -autodemo recording.smv
but neither mplayer or ffmpeg seem to be able to do anything with the resulting {audio,video}stream{0,1}.dat files. Could it be because I'm running this on a 64-bit version of Linux? It seems to otherwise work fine.

It says the exact same thing as it did with the other source code.
For a start you need to run configure first, which isn't executable (I don't think zip supports Unix-style permissions) - so "chmod +x" it. configure tries to run config.sub which uses DOS line endings. Bash doesn't like that so you need to convert it (I used "set ff=unix" in vim). You also need to do the same thing to config.guess. configure should then run. Then you'll possibly notice that the Makefiles are hardcoded to use aclocal-1.6 and automake-1.6, so you'll have to edit them. Then you'll try running make again and it will crap out, complaining that it can't find files called "NEWS" and "README", so you'll create them. Then you'll run make again - and it'll crap out again. This time you'll run "find . -type f dos2unix {} \;" before running make once more. This time things will churn along for a short while before the build will fail and, if you're anything like me, you'll give up. :-)
