I mentioned links on purpose. The first link is to a movie that got accepted after quite some debates about how it is different from the regular NES DK movie. That case is basically identical to what you're asking, so you might wanna investigate what happened and why it happened the way it did.

So you're seeing no answer in that other thread nor its links?

As natt noted, the main difference with my attempts is that I have 117 segments of different res, dumped with lagarith, with null frames off. Of 235712 frames 122 are missing after this:
Language: avisynth
function AppendFFSegment(
\ clip sample,

GScript("""

segment = AudioDub(LWLibAVVideoSource(name), LWLibavAudioSource(name))
point \
? segment.PointResize (sample.width, sample.height) \

for (i=start+1, end, 1)
{
name = base + string(i, format) + ".avi"
segment = AudioDub(LWLibAVVideoSource(name), LWLibavAudioSource(name))
last ++ (point \
? segment.PointResize (sample.width, sample.height) \
: segment.LanczosResize(sample.width, sample.height))
}
""")
}

I haven't looked at the names myself, but if they aren't consistent with the standards (which is quite expectable from a movie that old), make it what you feel it should be, with proper versioning.

I'm doing it for the purpose discussed in the thread I linked, multiple segments, like a lot. Normal avisource dies after 70 segments for me, ffmpeg filters don't.

Then it completely desync sound, even if I only import a single segment.

My tests with libav and ffms2 show that it always drops or adds frames. For reliable comparison I have a cfr lossless dump that I can load normally (even though it's segmented), and then with ffmpeg and compare. With dolphin, you need some absolutely accurate source to compare to.

Splitting it to several scripts causes the same error, as the number of calls to AVISource defines the number of dll loads, which is limited.
With FFMS2 and LWLibAV I am getting either extra 122 frames in the end of the movie (1h 6m), or the lack of 122 frames if I apply another way of fps enforcement.
While I personally think it's decent, I doubt anyone will agree with me, so I guess my tests are over. So we're stuck with splicing forever.
I still improved the multisegment importer to resize the segments to the final resolution directly. No need for hacks to encode PSX BIOS separately, and it's now possible to avoid downscaling of all the segments that can happen inside the rest of the movie. Like SNES or PSX hires scenes.
Will announce when it's refined.

Cross-platform obsoletions, on the other hand, are not done unless it's about deliberately identical ports (as happens with modern console games).

Well I fixed av desync by giving ffms2 fpsnum and fpsden of the source. Then it was dropping a few frames, which I probably fixed by AssumeFPS in the end (yep).
I encoded in a usual way too, in 2 segments, I'm planning to do some comparisons, and then also try LWLibAVVideoSource that Corey advertised for dolphin.

Make sure to also try the thing I found during the 1p warpless run:
In 3D levels, if you add U or D to the running pattern initialization (tap and hold L or R), you magically start running faster.

Hence it is impossible to please both camps with this system.

I fixed the overflow by changing my importing function, but then I had to dump the new method too, because ffmpegsource2 would introduce av desync of several seconds for certain segments depending on no one knows what. So I ended up doing partial encoding.
I can post that segment and the command I used to check the desync if you're interested.

BTW, while not possible with a bizhawk movie, such poll-based movie will be possible to console verify, just like the 2 second longSMB3 TAS.

My problem is that it uses tons of resolution changes, resulting in 117 segments and only 8GB of total size. For SDs I just did what you said and encoded the combined parts, but for HD I want to avoid shrinking the hires slides between levels, as well as upscaling gameplay to 2x. I want to upscale every segment to 4K and only then stitch them together.
EDIT:
I tried switching to ffms2 in my segmented importer function and got this:

So is there a way to overcome the avi import count limit of avisynth? Or just "encode what you can import as segments and then splice"?

You can input sub-frame with lua for the PoC purposes. Don't remember the event name.

Thanks! I still feel uneasy about my judgment. But sub-frame input isn't going to happen in bizhawk, I already tried asking.

Man this is insane. Even lua is there. This thing is ridiculously awesome!
