I haven't been TASing for too long, and I've had this problem occur numerous times.(video http://puu.sh/oMfmY/2dc6015516.mp4) It seems to overwrite my file whenever I try to save, but it seems to happen at random. I try to save every 10-15 minutes, but this seems to have worsened the problem. I'm not sure what exactly is going on. Thanks in advance, Hubert

Make greenzone state invalid by adding and removing a button then play back to validate states. Should save properly now.

So add in say a right button press then play up until new frames are being made, then save? Because I just saved here and got the same effect http://puu.sh/oN8MB/cb1f41ebcb.png

Can you please make a video showing what you mean? I don't exactly understand.

I don't know how I would show it in a video, it just improperly saves and makes the file go to 1kb.

Hubert, Did you try with the special build of feos? He made a build specifically for TAStudio. He fixed a lot of stuff since last release. So if you're running last release, it might be already fixed. I'd suggest you try the build of feos.(look on the previous page of the thread)

Here's some hint as to how to control it: when you are appending the movie via drawing, the last frame's input gets stuck as autohold. Another example: https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk/issues/534
I haven't found that to be true. It often replicates a frame a small bit prior, or even sometimes a deleted frame. It's bizarre, either way.

feos, something in your state gap implementation is wrong. I ended up having only two states.

I fixed one case leading to this back then, do you have the repro steps?

That happens because bsnes is fundamentally unstable when tasing and tastudio pushes it hard. It's probably untasable.

Recording without TAStudio has no problem whatsoever. I'm disabled and can't use the keyboard. I have to resort to using the virtual pad.

Just to be clear, TAStudio pushes cores harder than you can tasing the old fashioned way. The bugs are still there. You may get syncable results, but it may crap all over you. Be careful. Test whether it syncs frequently before you get too invested in it. You might want to choose a different game.

Updated the build. I guess I'll link it from the OP.

I found a workaround. I record input through TAStudio, save, close TAStudio, play with Read Only set to OFF, make save state, load state, re-open TAStudio, place marker, and continue. It's like virtual tug-of-war. I made another discovery. The camera doesn't turn when TAStudio is active. This is probably due to an emulation bug related to the ST-010 chip. That's why the HDMA effects wasn't rendering Mode 7 probably. The discovery reminds me of watching replays of Super Mario Kart after a perfect Time Trial so you can manually rotate the camera. This also happens on the Japanese version. There's no difference between versions. I sometimes compare it to F-Zero which in fact is a slightly better racing game.

*Moderator Edit: We don't need all the loaded DLLs* I want to do a TAS from SRAM, but I get this instead. 
See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

"Movie system Id () does not match the currently loaded platform (SNES), unable to load" This errors shows up if i try to open my first TAStudio project. I can still load my old copys and other small TAStudio project, only this one does not work, even thought thats the one i´m sure most it should work because i spend a lot time into it. I´m using Bizhawk 1.11.6 with a rom "called Super Mario World (USA)" If you have any idea how to help me or do you need more information pls ask me in the comments.

Are you using an official release? If so, open the file with the latest 7-Zip and remove the GreenZone file. If you're using an interim I provided in the tastudio thread, then it simply must work right away.

User movie #31060386670699013 I salvaged your tasproj into a normal .bk2, you can open it back up in TAStudio (just make sure to set the Open menu to All Files instead of just tasproj files) and continue working from there. Only downside is that the author name and re-record count were wiped, but those can be put back easily.
