What version is this? Just to make sure, some of that stuff has been changed around recently.

Seems to be the wrong size? The encodes are 480x420. That's 482x422 and has a 1px border around the edge? I can take off the border if you like.

There's no built in converter, but if you can find some downloadable app or web converter and turn the code into a DD:AAAAAA, then you can apply it as a freeze to the system bus (or better, map it to the appropriate place in ram or rom and apply a freeze to that directly). Yeah, not quite the greatest.

VBA's emulation of the Super Gameboy is very primitive. A simplistic high level emulation of certain 'command packets' sent from the emulated GB to the emulated SNES is employed, which gives somewhat-working borders, palettes, and extra controllers. Over a third of the command packets are not implemented at all. This isn't just about Space Invaders; many games use the extra sound and oam functions, and some use the functions that VBA does emulate in ways that it does not support. Timings are likely junk as well. In short, what I want to say is that VBA's SGB makes Mupen look like Nintendulator. I think VBA should be obsoleted for the specific purpose of making SGB movies. I don't particularly care whether there are viable replacements; an emulator that entirely ignores the existence of half of the hardware in the console is not accurate enough to do any justice to tool assisted runs. Thoughts?

Camhack? Is that for the same run? Just upload it to TVC, I'll connect it.

Why was my deblinked 30 fps S3K encode (not added to the publication yet) removed from the channel? The current one was most likely not using deblink (didn't check precisely). EDIT: Brandon's one was encoded 2011-04-02 when deblink didn't even exist.
Clerical error on my part. I apologize. Do you still have the video to reupload it?

Thanks for the input. On SVN, input.getmouse() now returns coordinates relative to the emulated screen.

The value in m.Left is a number, not a boolean. 0 is not false in lua. I'll change it so that the value is a boolean, because a number really doesn't make much sense here and is certainly not in the "spirit" of lua. As far as mouse coordinate representation; I'm not sure what's best. What would input.getmouse() actually be used for? Edit: I've reworked the function on SVN.

Anything on the official TASVideosChannel gets shown to every one of our subscribers. In some ways, it's a direct extension of the website. Accordingly, if runs are not fit for the website, they're not fit for the channel. This simple rule should serve well: Only post a run on TVC if it has been accepted.

i have to think that the JVM uses enough nasty system calls and threading related stuff to not function correctly inside of hourglass

There isn't much progress to speak of on my end. A few weeks ago I started to make a new Vegas Stakes movie (found a massive timesaver) using the new edition of bizhawk. My intention was to get a feel for the new emulator and then move on to Super Metroid. The problem was that I ran into numerous desync issues. Before I start a new Super Metroid run, I want to make sure the newer version of bizhawk corrects this. The Vegas Stakes movie is only 2 minutes long and already suffering from desyncs, so naturally I am worried about starting an hour long Super Metroid run. At least for me, when progress is made, I will post it here. I can't speak for anyone else who may be working on a run.
Have you posted about this in the Bizhawk forums (possibly the bugs thread?) I can't seem to find it.... If not, please do so there.

I've seen it be slightly smaller in some cases, with no discernible change in quality. It's not a sticking point though; I'll update the sticky to reflect that. Edit: One question to consider: Do we even like the greyscale color scheme? There are many alternates to choose from.

BizHawk supports this (seems to work correctly with Shantae, anywho).

The forum was getting a bit clogged with old stickies, so I'm doing some house-cleaning. The messages are still relevant, so here's a summary of some former stickies: All new publications MUST have a 10-bit YUV444 encode. (This is not essential for monochrome publications.) Original discussion: http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12042 Encoders may ONLY upload encodes for a submission to archive.org if it is accepted for publication. Original discussion: http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10387 Each platform has ratio limits on how large encodes can be per unit of time. These are guidelines only; an encode isn't automatically acceptable simply because it's under the limit. You should always strive to make every encode as efficient as reasonably possible. Original discussion: http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12706 All new publications MUST have an encode on the official TASVideos Youtube channel. The original publisher MUST provide that encode (either directly or by enlisting the help of another). Original discussion: http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13181
