Let's imagine, you have it. If it is checked for all emulators, all you can do is unchecking it after you recorded them all. But how you gonna check it back for all emulators? They don't accept background input once you unchecked it. It's not some global system hotkey, that can be read regardless of being disabled.

As my Rockin' Kats vote may look not very obvious, I have to elaborate now.
Several truly pro TASers have given up about this game, it needs much RNG-work, plus random lag avoiding, sometimes even with slowing down the motion, wise route planning. And it's rather long. So, only team could work out a real solution, maybe for the future deep obsoletion.
And I've beaten this game in my childhood, except the 2 last rooms of Channel X.

If not during this contest, Rockin' Kats won't ever be improved!

Another strange thing: viewing this one in different screen sizes causes changes to the flicker frequency...
The reason is embedded player. Looks okay on YT itself in any resolution.

I'd like to pronounce as a word anything that can be pronounced as a word. FCEUX can't, DeSmuME & TASVideos can.

You can save a state right from the Read-Only movie while watching your own progress. Pause it at the frame you need to resume from,
1. Save a state inside this movie
2. Toggly to Read+Write (Q key by default)
3. Load that state (you'll see the Record Status Icon)
You can swap steps 1 & 2.

We can upload lossless video to youtube. But if it is of the console's framesize - it will SUCK extremely hard. The best solution for little uplcaling - something above 720. But why the heck we need to upscale such little? We struggle for the best possible picture. Be it 1080+.

This is creativity.
We're doing the same for these games.
Instead of walking on the paths created for us, we create our own paths, our own legs and so on.
And we're not listening to people who say "you can't do that!".
Just like children.
Oh. My. God.
We DEFINITELY need some psychological inspiration description back on that page. It is SO poetic!!! I'm extremely serious here. People around see movies, but they almost can't understand our MOTIVATION to do what we do. The sence is that: We do things that were supposed impossible, beyond human. But we do that not because we are superhumans. We merely BELIEVE this IS possible!
Just recall how a new crazy trick to try first comes to your mind. It is true creativity, art in most lofty sence - to get rhyme lines, melodies, plots, images of anything you feel exalted, divine, inspiring, really interesting - DIRECTLY from "nowhere", from some sacred secret source.

No, if you redraw them transparent. The real issue is sprite/backgroung order I think.

This is too labour-intensive, though I wanted to suggest something like that a week ago. But let's remember all these talks about sprite RAM. Can this sprite data be hacked on console basis, not game one? Lua may be able to kill sprites that blink (which may be detected using logging info at the first pass, say, running a movie) & draw them pixel by pixel transparently (if not, don't shoot me for n00bity).

Yadif can't be loaded, error 0x7e. Does it work with 2.6a?

The code may be implemented as a patch, doesn't it?

The only thing I can imagine to solve that is to delete one frame before the blinking, if it starts from "wrong frame".
When I tried keeping top line for deinterlacing this vid, it started looking really blended between frames, though the scrolling looked more gradual than on my gif above. And the blinking on the other place in this movie looked proper. Will post examples here.
EDIT:
The above gif was made at keep bottom field mode (1:1 ratio). Here's how it looks with top field & 0.5:0.5 ratio:
And here's a comparison of another problematic place.
Keep bottom looks the same at any ratio:
Keep top with 0.7:0.3 ratio:
And finally with 0.5:0.5 rastio:

I have, but we have other consoles that may not allow that. Wee need to ask this guy some questions about his methods.

How do I pack the above functions into a proper script?
While previewing partyboy1a's script in VirtualDub with deinterlace filter at Yadiff mode, keep bottom, I got perfect picture with 15 FPS flicker instead of 30. Both video & blinking rates were reduced by two.
Hell yeah, this looks very much like on TV!
EDIT:
Now blinking totally depends on what frame it starts at. It may appear almost invisible in some places of the movie and good in others.
