you also can edit the mkv video if you use avisynth script with only directshowsource("video.mkv") inside and drag it into virtualdub.

1. Check the source video bitrate.
2. Pick a good codec.
3. Config it for the same bitrate for output.
4. ?????
5. Profit!

In cases where you have no detailed rules, you must just observe all possible aspects and make a decision that seems fair.
1. This run does not sync on BizHawk, it has a completely different lag picture in the beginning, I added 8 (!) blank frames to let it pass the title screen and then it desynced on the cutscene skipping. I expect all the movie not to sync throughout.
2. This run met some positive feedback, people want this published.
3. This run is a good improvement over the previous movie (made on the same emulator).
4. This run was started way before the snes9x issue appeared, and was possibly finished before that as well.
5. This run was not suggested for the continuances list.
I think it is fair for me to pick this submission as well, as I rejected Chuck Rock due to using a deprecated emulator this run also uses. I also know we have another improvement done on snes9x in the Workbench and we somehow must work out the decision for both of them with no contradiction between the staff.
So, using a deprecated but technically still supported emulator is the most important factor, but not the only one. And this site is not about disallowing the creators to share their hard work pieces. In such cases, we must look for enough reasons to make a positive exception. If there are not enough of them, no exception is done particularly.
Chuck Rock met no reasons to make a positive exception, in my eyes. This run meets them. Super Turrican submission also seems to meet them. Let's cook some kind of a precedent here, I ask members and staff to examine my logics and respond.

It seem that this could be a memory leak issue by pcsxrr. So I guess the patch for 4gb won't help.
I expect the hole to be in the scripts somewhere, but the problem needs some debugging (I'm not the one to do it though).

It has only the potential to TAS all PC games, nothing more.

I am using the only allowed video plugin for M64 encodes, but my system probably causes these bugs. I also couldn't get the Biohazrd 2 ending cutscene working.

Glide. Like I have a choice. BTW, if you scroll up you'll see me telling you I had a glitched ending >_>

That "glitched" branch basically serves as a warning to viewers that they may not find the game to be 'beaten' once it has been 'completed'.
I love that pun!

Too long setup. How about INSTANTLY glitching the flying heck out of the damn gaem? Guys are impatient after all!

Let me ask you, what did you expect from a snake TAS?
This is the reason you don't need to submit the 100% version. 3 minutes is maximum to stay entertained.

Just judging by how appreciated your Redesign run is here, you can submit right away and don't give a fuck about anything. But I love perfectionism as well, this is how we get our BEST TASes.

If the game saves itself BEFORE the ending screen, and it is skipped in the run, it is a pretty valid ending. If it saves itself AFTER the ending screen, and this save doesn't occur in the run, the ending isn't that valid.

Also, Saturn, when are you going to submit the Super Metroid Redesign run? I'm looking forward to it.
There is no decision yet. That run has a couple of small optimization errors in the early Crateria parts resulted from rushing and not testing all variations at that time, so I probably shouldn't bother until an improved version, if it gets done. Having a probability that your hard work may not get accepted as it is without manipulations isn't a good motivation factor to make submissions either.
Just how many rerecords it has? I guess over 100k. NO ONE would pretend it's sloppy. And while not being sloppy, a good tas has no problem with having possible improvements and still being perfectly acceptable.

Can you compare your movie with klmz's one more precisely? Or its strategies are too different?
