I could certainly rip out the gameboy colors option from VBA and use it. My only problem is that I'm a bit worried that everyone will have their own idea what the right GBC colors are, and then I might as well add customizable transfer functions and whatnot...
As far as Kirby Tilt and Tumble goes, analog support in bizwhack is a bit far away at this point. And then this particular mapper needs to be supported too... I wouldn't hold my breath, sorry =/
There are a few thousand other GB games that do work, though!

kirby tilt and tumble is mapper 0x22 (MBC7+tilt???)
Gambatte does not support it.
Edit: made a little list

As far as GBC color correction goes, do you have any links that give more explicit data on how a GBC differs from standard sRGB in color production? It'd be nice to know what sort of correction is needed..

Yeah, lagarith is fine for dumping, and then viewing either in vdub or avisynth->vdub, but cannot be safely directly processed by ffmpeg (so can't feed directly to x264, nor upload to youtube).
x264vfw is only safe for any use at all when "zero latency" is checked. even then, i wouldn't feed it to ffmpeg...

yeah, that's what i'm using. 32 bit revision, but i doubt that affects anything like that
are you joining your avis wrong?
are you uploading something unsupported (like lagarith) to youtube?

Is it possible to simply edit the input file to include the length of the BIOS's start up?
maybe, maybe not. depending on the system and how the "no bios mode is emulated, there may be other differences in emulation.

Here is an encode made by your build, 64 bits with lagarith loseless codec. This is only the .avi, not the dumpframe : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fx8Vey7JX_k&t=135
As you can see at 2:17, 4 seconds of the cinematic are skipped... But the audio continue, which create a desync.

I checked both movies at the moment Julius is defeated in their respective emulators, and it seems MattyXB's movie beats him faster. Am I missing something?
I'm not seeing that at all. Looking at the first frame where the screen flashes black, and counting by input frames, not any other form of counting:
943S: Screen first flashes black on input frame 329742
3697S: Screen first flashes black on input frame 328935
What numbers are you getting?

Yes, my movie is faster than hims. And if I dont play until the end of the credits, that's because Matty doesn't it.
I'm not seeing that at all. In what emulator are you playing back 943S? Using vba v23.5 svn421, it quite clearly reaches the credits.
It's true that your movie appears to end at the same time relative to text display, yet doesn't reach the credits. That could be caused by any one of a number of things: my first thought would be a frame rule, but it's possible that differences between different versions of VBA caused it (remember that vba23.5 knows how to play back the movies from older versions without desyncing in many cases).

mmm, not seeing any skip
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0-ypmXoMA8
i do see the slight sound desync though... not sure what to make of that yet, all of the a\v sync stuff appears to be working right
you hear that sound desync in realtime when watching it dump, which leads me to believe that it's either a bug in the game or, more likely, an actual timing problem in the emulated dsp and\or emulated video...

Hi !
Thanks again for your work !
But what are the settings to record without lag ? And what codec to use ?
I tried to dump frame, dump audio to avi and dump audio and then to only take audiodump.wav, but it still have sync issue :( (I'm using the latest version of your A/V hack.
EDIT : I made some test, and for some reason I can't capture the level 1 : it always skip the part between where I jump on the cliff to when I open the egg which give the hatcher costume... The audio is captured though, the frames are just not there.
What game? edit: of course it's Billy Hatcher... I have that here, I'll run a test later
If you use dump frames, with dump audio to avi on, you shouldn't touch any .wav files that are created. All the audio you want is in the avi files.

The youtuber at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6lQ_QZB7t4 has quite a bit of information on it.
It would be nice to see that sort of stuff in the author's comments on the submission

i would not recommend uploading x264vfw directly to youtube, ever. i'd only use it as an intermediate, and even then only with zero-latency checked (which significantly hurts its value as a lossy codec).
my uploads to youtube are generally avc+vorbis in mkv, and i have not generally had issues with them.
